Remedy's new CEO is a former sports betting guy and EA executive who aims to 'scale Remedy in a way that builds lasting value'

Until they shelve the single-player games indefinitely, and use the assets to shit out a microtransaction riddled hero-shooter set in the Remedy-verse.
so... FBC: Firebreak 2: MTX Boogaloo: Revenge

I argee with the article's author that there's reason to have some concerns about this.
Remedy's cooked, though I like their games enough that I'll gladly pay up to 25€ for a single-player experience (after it's patched for a year) if there's no need for an online connection and no added live service "value", and it doesn't come with denuvo or kernel-level anticheats.

RIP remedy
Yup. It's dead.

With AI and microtransactions you say!
Microtransactions are for pussies, macrotransactions are where it's at

Is this dude the reason Firebreak exists? Cuz if so, that doesn't bode well.
What's the second word of the title?

Well shit. I hope the supposedly in development Control 2 manages to come out somewhat unscathed before things go fully downhill.

It doesn't say how new. But Firebreak is the cited reason they hired this new guy. So hopefully that means they won't go down that path.

Of course, they announce a DMC-like Control sequel and go apeshit right after… I swear this genre is cursed.

Nnooooo
They were already building lasting value.
By just making good artistically meaningful games.
"Art is something that we think is a little outdated in the modern business landscape" - this guy probably.

Yeah, I was of the same mind right from the start and people just looked at me funny when I mentioned it. All I could do was just watch in horror from the sidelines. In Finland.
