Every company that gets bought by another corporation either cranks out a few good games and then dies, or cranks out an okay game and then dies. The eventual outcome is always death.
Bullfrog, Raven, Westwood Studios, Bioware, Origin, Maxis, Viceral Games, all of them.
There are some exceptions like Naughty Dog (is there another one?) that kept their quality after getting acquired. But I agree in general with your thesis.
It would be nice if the entire world didn’t consolidate into two mega corps. Good on CDR for having their own vision.
CP2077 + Phantom Liberty are excellent. I just started a new playthrough. I wish it had released in this shape.
the CP2077 launch was rocky, but most of their previous games haven't had that level of hype. The Witcher 3 taking off like it did, gave them the confidence to go bigger. CP2077 is in a great place now, even if it didn't start that way.
