reading through some of the recent threads i've come to realize how many developers, studios, and publishers i used to love slowly became either jokes or outwardly lovely over time. what are some of your favorites?

personally: Peter Molyneux slowly becoming an irrelevant joke

Konami, Daybreak and 2K would be my nWo style heel stable OP, and not because
Jim Sterling told me so.

Konami for killing Castlevania. Replace with Silent Hill if that was your thing.

Daybreak for holding the Everquest franchise ransom well past its prime and ruining it with a very bad in game currency system that promotes poo poo behavior to what could have been a cool run through memory lane fighting internet dragons we used to waste time doing instead of going outside.

2K for just bad games other than XCOM and the occasional Civ game.

I'm still sore about Silent Hills because it had the potential to be the first good Silent Hill game after 15 years of subpar to downright bad Silent Hill releases. I just want survival horror to be a thing that exists again.

This. And to a lesser extent, Turtle Rock studios, who went from making Left 4 Dead to making Evolve.
