Basically he said that they got a €60k subsidy from the Belgian government, and that this was a huge waste of taxpayer money for a couple of hand drawn sketches

  afaik it was a loan. It'll probably turn out to be a de facto subsidy because it was a subordinated loan (i.e. they're last in the line of creditors to get their money back), although looking at the financial reports I wouldn't be surprised if something was left at the end, but either way created tens of thousands in tax revenues alone, a bunch of jobs and a finished game that's still selling (and whose IP is for sale to pay off creditors, including the government), not a bunco of sketches and models. No wonder he deleted his comment.
