I really hate how people in charge of companies usually don't give a crap about the product, just how to exploit it.
I honestly do believe Lars Wingefors is passionate about games and the industry, he's been trying to find a place in it his whole career, but I do not think he's a good business man nor worthy of stewardship for these IPs.
