Are indie developers ruined by acquisitions? - Pachter Factor S6E49
Added 2021-08-05 21:37:28 +0000 UTCBoth Microsoft and EA have purchased indie developers only to shut them down if they underperform. Very few can buy their freedom back like Bungie or IO Interactive did. So if you're a fan of Housemarque's games is it a good thing that Sony bought it? When big companies buy indie developers is it good for the industry in general?
