    This is the problem!

    Yes, i’m sure it’s a lot of work to move game engines but time and time again it’s the same story. Closed source anything is free until the easy money has been sucked up so why even bother with anything closed source?

    Sooner society stops feeding the greed, hopefully the sooner we get back to a sustainable society!

    Sadly i’m not sure it’ll happen in my life! 😞

      Part of the problem are the stockholders who expect the shares to go up in price every time. If it starts dipping down enough a huge portion of them will pull their shares and bankrupt the company. This causes companies to mostly think in the short term cause it’s better to make a bit more money than be bankrupt.

        So to be clear “part of the problem” is the functional basis for our entire economical system. What exactly is the other part?
