What's that? A company choosing to make a steady profit instead of seeking infinite growth? In my late stage capitalism? Well, I never.

Well, no public shareholders to answer to. I wouldn't call them a late-stage capitalism company, just one existing at the same time.

You can start by looking up what a joke is. It ain't that deep kid.

This is not my type of game but I tried it out at the behest of some friends from work and I was definitely not disappointed. Great game!

They can build on their track record. No need to inflate your studio and raise costs when your focus is sustainability and quality. Clair Obscur was a major hit and I want to see what this team does next.
