If the studios didn’t get sold to the larger entities, said large entities couldn’t had closed them. Why is no one talking about the topic of game studios being sold out to begin with?

This is a genuine question. I’m confused.

    I know a guy that sold his studio to Microsoft personally. He’s been living a very nice life now, quite a long time after the sale.

    He took the gamble. Made the risks. Exposed himself financially. It paid off.

    Like any small business, you hope for a payout. Most won’t get one, so you take it when it comes.
