This makes me quite hopeful. The way I see it, the folks who made the games I cared about were long gone; with the IP holder focusing on licensing / contracting out, they might get to work on those IPs again after all. I enjoyed Tales of Monkey Island (LucasArts-published but Telltale-developed sequel with some of the original talent on board). The internal studio that had to be kept busy was probably more of a potential impediment to that.
