The more interesting bit there is the aside about how Kurvitz and co. have left ZA/UM. Surprised that wasn’t bigger news.

From the comments section: quote:Imagine a kleptomaniac, if you will. Only that instead of stealing, say, "A Lolly pop", they take pains to manipulate dozens of people to steal, in the end, from themselves, just because they happen to be very proficient in that kind of an operation. It's what they always do, really. One of them was the first guy to be convicted for investment fraud in Estonia. All the same, idk if we would have managed to get the initial investment without these people. Seems to be the case

catgirlgenius posted:The Dissolution of the ZA/UM Cultural Association jfc capitalism the only silver lining in this is I think if the core team sticks together, they'll have indie publishers falling over themselves to offer them a deal to make the new game although, who knows what's actually happening. i'd like some commentary from the other big names first.

Joyce Messier: I can't. That's how simple it is. One may dye their hair green and wear their grandma's coat all they want. Capital has the ability to subsume all critiques into itself. Even those who would critique capital end up reinforcing it instead… RIP ZA/UM Cultural Association. Perhaps one day, we'll see the likes of Disco Elysium again.

This is so loving poo poo and sucks real bad. I also hope he's okay in himself. Echoing the above, I really hope that in the early days they were able to protect this IP in some way legally, considering it was their baby.

on the other hand they are now an available crack team that just went and made the highest metacritic pc game I think they are definitely going to have an entrepreneurial person selling them the rope so to speak (also its good for them to be speaking out and letting everyone knows about this shitfuck situation)

As amazing and deep and well thought out as the DE world was, maybe it's better that we only got this one crystallized version of it (and maybe a cash-in sequel and tv show? sigh). I'm pretty sure Kurvitz can whip up another idea worthy of his team's efforts, given another 5 years or so.
