Refreshing to see them go correct the mistakes they made in their first doc. Very strange things are happening in the world of techbros and financiers trying to ruin games.

Nice! I'll actually watch this one then, especially if it's got Jamrock Hobo's endorsement. I had given up on PMG ever admitting doing anything wrong when making this video.

What about Kurvitz? What has happened to him in this saga?

Still working with Rostov and Helen in Red Info (formerly Red Info Box), the video claims that they received a decent amount of funding from a Chinese company.

Argo mentions that there's a possibility they can fight to get the world of Elysium IP into the hands of Kurvitz, Argo, and the other people who were originally involved in the tabletop sessions that birthed the world of Elysium. That part seems a lot more far fetched to me, but it would be cool if it happened.

The company in question was NetEase, and they noted that NetEase released a statement earlier this year that they were tripling down on GaaS and abandoning western studios doing other things.

Of Marvel Rivals fame? Damn, their success with that must mean they're focusing on just that and games like it. The taste of money-making potential was too much.

Kinda my fault, too. I play that game a lot lol.
