I’m torn because it would still put money in that shitty company’s pocket.

It depends, if the game never makes more than $250,000,000 in sales, then I’d say it’s good! Because the parent company had to give UW way more money than they made for them

I mean… surely they have to make more than 250,000,000 in sales to justify the original bonus being 250,000,000 in the first place.

No?

Krafton paid half a billion for Unknown Worlds. The 250 million bonus was in addition to that. Including operational costs and salaries, they need to make back almost a billion to break even.
