      You can tell from the pictures that they all play video games. /s

      I really hate how people in charge of companies usually don’t give a crap about the product, just how to exploit it.

        I honestly do believe Lars Wingefors is passionate about games and the industry, he’s been trying to find a place in it his whole career, but I do not think he’s a good business man nor worthy of stewardship for these IPs.

          Very well could be. I didn’t research their backgrounds. I just know from first hand experience of people who get jobs who graduated with business degrees who don’t care about the stuff they sell.
