I’m software developer for years and I’ve never done any business decision ever. I just do what my managers says.

I don’t think this reality changes for game development. You’re using “developers” for game dev company, which is still a company with managers.

So real people devs are not responsible for anything.

And I never said that now did I? The developers did decide to shut it down, I’m sorry words have multiple meanings, why would you assume I meant the specific employee, instead of the company like my comments specify? Thats on you.

  I don’t care your own word meanings. Your original comment is just wrong. Even if you mean the development studio it is still Ubisoft executives. The company hierarchy doesn’t matter.

    My own words…? It’s literally a term used to describe a studio that develops software. It’s an industry term…

    It’s the development studio, the hierarchy does matter. Since it changes from the publisher who controls sales, to the development studio, who controls the development and service. A developer can always choose to use their own funds to keep a game alive, it’s just never worth the cost, so why would even the employees want to burn money on that…?
