Tbh, I'm fine with big AAAA games burning in financially, like Anthem or Redfall. The AA games from smaller devs are great, and I just don't buy the next game if they buy out a smaller studio and all the OG devs go on to building a new company. That's how we got games like Half Life, when MSFT devs got sick of working for a mega company and decided to build their own game.

If they buy out a studio and all the devs leave and form a new studio with the proceeds of the prior studio, it means more quality indie titles.
