Funding is important, especially if you want to self-publish like they seem to intend to (thank god for no more Epic Exclusives) but I can’t help but feel a bit sad about these news. I hope Tencent won’t be a large enough shareholder to exert any influence over Remedy creatively.

Remedy didn’t do layoffs and bought back publishing rights of control from 505 after operating at a loss last year. If this ‘loan’ lets them own their own games that’s great. It’s sad to see how many of their old titles are owned by/tied to other companies
