On Irrational Games closing its doors...

It's alright, we'll be alright.

Like someone said, even if the studio is closing, you and the fans will always have the stories and the people they created. I know it's sad though, once you have a little of something wonderful you always want more. But we'll all be alright, life will keep going, and you'll always have me and the stories we've created together.

This is a little strange though. Most of everybody who posts here is angry at their muns, not patting them on the shoulder...

Luckily it's not entirely true they're shutting down, and it's certainly not the end of your universe's story. For one it seems like they're still finishing up the Burial at Sea episode, then from there 2K will take over.

Then the Irrational Games studio will go to only fifteen people, making small projects. It's not entirely hopeless.

I can understand that. My mundane was surprised about the news too since the multiverse you are a part of was a big inspiration and motivator for him.

I have to say they are slowing things down gracefully at least. Making sure their employees have a big chance at a new job elsewhere.

So I won't be surprised if we see some of that narrative skill spread among various companies after this.

Maybe some of the ideas that didn't get fully realized in your story might have a shot under a new banner.

[Vergil knows these feels, man. Mostly because Capcom seems wholly disinterested in continuing his franchise and even if they did, they killed him, so his story is over completely unless they want to do a prequel.]

You have my sympathies.

[The angle of this armoured thing's head and the hiss that slips through suggests confusion.

After all, her game wasn't made under Irrational, and she turned out fine, right?

... Right??]
screeee: (HELLO FRIEND)

Thank you! Simple, but gets the point across (heh heh point)

[Oh! Okay phew. She beams!

See? Just because your daddy leaves you, doesn't mean everything's stopped! It might not even be so bad, after all!

And plus, as the post kind of said, you can still build and play with the old stuff, like she and her Sisters do at home. Wow! This metaphor just keeps giving, doesn't it?]
