That's the thing though, I think there is room for an alternative to the current corpos (4.0?). I'm thinking that there could be some kind of way to be an indie publisher and keep the vultures out by the stock type. If somebody were to sell preferred stocks (e.g. stock without voting rights) to the investors, whoever is in charge of this indie publisher effectively locks them out of this kind of crap.
Corpo 5.0
Yeah, the corpos are doing part of the job for me: they are giving developers experience and then cutting them loose. Hey laid off devs, they cut you loose. I have a different plan. Make yourself some new IP and let's publish some stuff independent of the corpo publishers. Keep the speculators out.
Microsoft gutted Tango Gameworks and everybody who works on the Evil Within and Hi-Fi Rush. I want to get some people together and publish the Malice Inside and Wi-Fi Hush. Bring us your barely-legally distinct, stylish, niche games and let's try something else.
