Disco Elysium was bought? They will probably inject it with microtransactions and some other bs. Anyway… playing that game was a rollercoaster of emotions.
It wsn’t bought, exactly. The publisher pulled a fast one on the devs a|ter DE’s success. There’s a good report on this by people make games on youtube.
There are other videos on the internet about this, but basically PMG have done a terrible job here. One person is accused of serious corporate misconduct, and the others have allegations of being hard to work with, and PMG effectively treats them as equal, not even realising that the reason maybe some people were hard to work with was because of forced labour from the guy also doing the corporate misconduct.
Same thing for Disco Elysium.

Nah, the people who made the game were laid off, no money goes to them if you buy it

It’s a lot more complicated than that and I suggest you watch the People Make Games investigation on the subject to get a clearer idea of the issues.

They’ve just not done a great job overall here.
