That's harsh and unfair.


Really? I think it's translating it to plain english and it's a lot nicer than what's actually going through my head about the people making that decision.


Disney closed down the studio, which yes, really sucks for the people who worked there. I empathize for all the guys and gals that lost their jobs from this decision. Having said that, it may have been the right call for Disney. Disney has a number of game studios, and this one may have been redundant. This is what happens when one company buys another and there is overlap in org-structure. LucasFilm animators and operations people already got the axe. I worry for them more than I do for game engineers (their skills are in high-demand).


It's certainly harsh, but which part is unfair?
