Devs: acquisitions are bad
You: Playstation should acquire them.
A takeover as in a rescue, not an acquisition.

I think they are vastly different.

Being a bit harsh with the comparison but it reads to me like….

“This assassin killed a lot but he is a human and good person”.

Or…

“He was part of the group that killed him but he is a human and good person”
I think Ybarra should shut the fuck up, tbh; People are unemployed because of Phil's greed, while "good man Phil" goes out tonight to his favourite restaurant for his $500 for a 5-star Michelin meal.

Barring a documentary a few years ago, Mikami tends to keep himself to himself, and this pronouncement isn't exactly verbose: "Tango closed," said Mikami. "Sad."

There will always be that sadness about the story of Tango, because it doesn't feel like a studio that did anything particularly wrong, and had plenty left to give. It was a studio of talent and pedigree, a legacy from one of the greatest designers games have seen, and now all the people that made it what it was are scattered to the wind.

On a selfish level, I'm gutted there will be no The Evil Within 3.

They always do
Most do, no matter if the company is failing, thts the travesty of it all thts why they fire and layoff to make sure the "overhead" is met for the shareholders and top execs.
