The article seems to be more lamenting the decision to shut down 2K Australia, given that (from the author's perspective) it was still a productive studio. It's far from a finely-tuned, hard-hitting, ground-breaking treatise on the topic, but "how did this make it onto the front page of HN" seems extreme. If you know of a better essay on the topic of "What happened to 2K Australia?" or "What happened to Borderlands?" I'd love to see it. I realize that things like: > People didn't get along. Things fell apart. and > Ken Levine got tired of it. might well tell the whole story...but I guess it leaves me wanting more (particularly since you imply that there was more).
