I wonder if any internal rumors of this were part of the sort of "exodus" from Giant Bomb a while back. Even Gerstmann left and is now just doing his own thing solo.
- MajimasEyepatch 4y agoI would be surprised if acquisition rumors made it that far down the chain so early, but I’m sure that Jeff saw the writing on the wall with how RV management was approaching things.
- runevault 4y agoI would be shocked if the Nextlander crew knew a year out. Jeff MIGHT have heard something around the time he left/was ousted (no clue which).
- djhworld 4y agoNextlander guys did a podcast about this, I generally got the impression they were just burnt out from years of building giant bomb and wanted out, this wasn't long after the RV acquisition.
- runevault 4y agoSure, but if they did know they'd have been NDA'd into not talking. Again, I don't think they did because I doubt this deal was in the works for a year, or if it was I doubt even Jeff G/B knew about it let alone anyone else, but them not saying anything in and of itself doesn't guarantee it. Logic mostly says no though.
