    Their games are probably not easy to make and definitely not cheap if you hire these famous actors. Sure they are not s-tier level of actors but they are definitely not cheap. I bet many of those actors can ask a higher pay than the games industry’s favorite called Troy Baker.

    Also the market for interactive movies probably isn’t mega huge either. Every interactive movie series they released was published by a different publisher. Doubt they were massive hits.

      Based on what I’ve seen Directive 80211 didn’t seem to sell as well as their previous games, probably because they dropped the “Dark Pictures” stuff from it (or kept it hidden, as it were)… Hard to believe a single mis-step caused this but I’m not in the industry so take that with a pinch of salt.
