Yeah I think Telltale became the modern franchise-game company. What I mean is that by the end of the 7th generation most people thought movie or franchise tie-ins were dead. And  they were right for the most part, but then Telltale game and messed with so many franchises. They basically became the new movie-tie-in or TV-tie-in or Game-tie-in company, and brought that kind of negative image back to life just by themselves. 

Also: "its always sad to hear a studio going under"

Remember a lot of these people could be rehired for even better work But you're right, still sad ...

Yeah, hopefully the employees are hired by other companies/developers.

Yes. It makes me wonder if the industry is growing in terms of job listings.
