MS should buy the studio.

The guys have tallent enough to make a AAA game.

Of course I was talking about THQ Nordic...

Hopefully it means the end of the game being distributed episodically. I hate that business model.

I have to give SE some credit. If this was EA. They would of dissolved them like Maxis.

Really big ip @_@ it's more on the mid tire level tbh. Add in deep sliver, 505 and Warner Brothers to the list.

I actually could see SEGA buying them like they did with ATLUS.

I mean, even if sales aren't huge the series has a great legacy that is well know by many people, in fact I don't know if someone like 505 could afford Hitman (though if they can they will certainly try since they are European like IO and it'd  be easier for them to manage the development team as opposed to SE)

It would be a decent outcome. I can see this.

Games as services.

Microsoft talks about how it might be the future of single player games, to go episodic small games that come out in peices, tied to a subscription. Gamespass is supposed to end up with content like it, on it, going by what theyve said.

Personally hope that never comes to be, or ends up as the standard.
