Risk of Rain 2 is developed by just 8 people. It's a game that I don't regret buying early access because the early access till 1.0 is the smoothest sailing i've ever seen for a game. I have a pretty old pc that's low spec even back then, the game just run smoothly.

And of course a multibillion company is the one messing thing up.

I didn't realize Gearbox had any part in it. Are they just the publisher?

They bought the IP from hopoo a few years ago, and this DLC is 100% by Gearbox internal dev.

Man that is the saddest thing. I really loved that series, sounds like it's cooked.

The content looks pretty good though, sadly with Gearbox takeover i think the polish just gonna suffer from now on.

they're not that bad, they had been working with hopoo for a while before the IP sale

idk maybe the team changed but last I heard (from hopoo) the internal gbx team were mainly the folks who did work on sotv and anniversary update
