      CD Projekt has shareholders. Shareholders expect revenue growth with less to no expense growth.

      GOG wants to grow expenses (developing patches for niche games) with little potential for revenue. Shareholders don’t tend to like doing things for goodness sake, while private owners can do whatever they like.

    I’m cynical about this simply because “shareholders” are involved. Possible enshittification ahead.
