This company doesn't need Eververse to feed themselves. It's purely greed.

Idk what this is supposed to mean? That companies who are bankrupt are better at making video games? Thats worked for crytek! That they dont need to male money? We live in a capitalistic world where success is based of the accumulation of wealth. Until we stop capitalism we deff cant stop companies from taking advantage of us or being greedy.
