This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I'm under the impression that because of how hyped the game was on release they realized they all had it made and can more or less run the company off that financial momentum. After all it was a fairly small team. Which is still a really admirable thing to do when comparing it to what most major developers do with their titles upon success...

Milk that DLC cow and move straight onto the sequel baby! Shareholders must receive value and number must go up!

Privately owned (no shareholders), small team that seems to love what they're doing, they can likely go on forever. Strange how a lack of shareholders correlates with good games (/platforms, Valve!) isn't it ?

Yuuuup, at least in the modern times that rings true. There was a time when publicly traded companies were measured by their success as a business and not solely by the "value" they generated for shareholders. We can thank Jack Welch for fucking all that up, rest in Piss asshole.
