re: Square Enix holds garage sale: gets only $300M

The truth is Tomb Raider doesn't hold much cultural relevance anymore outside of our nostalgia, and Deus Ex (as amazing as it was to experience that story back in the day) is not inherently an IP ripe for continued milking. There's also only so many buyers out there

If anything Square Enix has a surplus of obscure and underutilized IP that doesn't move the economic needle. It's not surprising to see them want to divest low juice per squeeze properties when they can throw proceeds at stuff like FF14 (which is straight printing money) or give Yoko Taro a proper budget worthy of his brilliance/insanity

I'm more intrigued if there's anything to the Sony rumors
