Then the "talent" should take a page out of Sandfall Interactive and say: Screw these corpo fucks, let's make a game we want to make and play. Then continue to make GOTY.
Easier said than done. Not every dev is good at securing funding and going their own way. You can't just start making a game out of your home with no income to cover living expenses, people's salaries, etc.
Yeah, being a developer ain’t the same as running a business. It takes an entirely different skillset that are basically all soft skills where everything is non-deterministic and your biggest issue isn’t the tech you’re working on, but getting people on board with what you’re doing. Tech problems are easy; people problems are hard.
