you seem to be blaming the workers for turning out flops but in general it's the managements lack of planning and micromanagement that's the general cause.
no one who's a developer, artist, designer wants to add micro transactions, that comes from top down because it's a revenue generator. they want to polish the games so they can be proud of the work, but are not given time.
executives are not the ones generally being let go and the ones that are will be cashing out from the acquisition. expect those IPs to get worse and have more enshittification because that's what makes money and that's all corpos care about.
you don't get a larian studios from laying off talent, you get it from good management and giving your talent time to deliver.
