    I found it funny that they fought so hard to regain their independence from Microsoft just to sell to Sony a decade later. Seems like a ship of Theseus situation

      Or even just Activision almost immediately after leaving Microsoft. They never even released anything without having a “master”

      The people who fought for independence are no longer the ones running the company. Just like with InfinityWard, the people who made the company what it is have long since left or been fired/laid off. The studio is only the same in name and by what IPs it owns. Other than that it’s basically entirely different.

      They were tired of making the same fps game over and over, so they switched to making the same fps game over and over.
