Now, not only Krafton, but Unknown Worlds itself are suing the leadership for fucking off.
>Between 2023 and 2025, Key Employees Cleveland and McGuire pursued other projects, development on Subnautica 2 stalled.
>The release date was pushed back again and again (three times in all)
>Cleveland was the first to stray. By 2023 Cleveland announced to friends and some colleagues that he was leaving video game development to learn how to produce movies and other interests.
>and, by 2025, he abandoned all creative or other leadership roles with the Company.
>Technical lead McGuire spent 2022 and 2023 buried in the passion project of a new, Moonbreaker, even well past that time it became clear Moonbreaker was a commercial failure. Eventually, he too abandoned any pretense of technical involvement in Subnautica 2.
>Gill, who assumed the role of CEO of Unknown Worlds, was fully aware of the situation and did nothing.

Zero sympathy.
Remember after they cut their teeth on Natural Selection 1 and 2, games about space marines fighting aliens, they said they never wanted to make an FPS game ever again because "something something gun violence in the US".

this debacle was my favorite news story in recent memory, the combination of secondhand cringe and schadenfreuden is so satisfying
anybody who is going to advertise their project with cheap midjourney ai AND NOT EVEN FIX THE TYPO deserves whatever personal hell they find themselves in

I think that's fine, the guy should pursue his passions and it's probably best for him and company if he leaves when his heart is elsewh-
>and, by 2025, he abandoned all creative or other leadership roles with the Company.
Wait they kept him around for 2 more years after he announced he wouldn't do shit? What the fuck?

LMAO. This company and its executives is fucked beyond belief. They pissed off everyone form their publisher to their fans and even their playtesters. I wouldn't be surprised if they close their doors within the year.
