The last product of theirs I used was TheSettlers III. It was fun. But, after that, they made a series of bad decisions. Weren't they the first to have an umbilical so even LAN play required a working Internet connection - and rumoured a good one - or the game would quit?

I wish them well and I wish them a lot of smarts so they can get better.

No new ideas, and money line must go up. Welcome to the vampire economy.

Well yeah, all creative, talented and ingenious gaming professionals have long left and joined/founded other studios.

The company corporatized so much, it completely lost touch with what made it grow in the first place.

Now it's almost certainly heading the way of Sears, Toys R Us, blockbuster, Blackberry...
