Look, I agree they can never forget the fans they lost in this decision. But, for $7.5b and the happiness of the suits who own Zenimax who then own Bethesda, there really isn’t much more they can do other than apologize.
No matter what happens, Microsoft owns their IP, their studios, and the like.
The best they can do is remember what they gave up to get to where they are. While Hines and Todd mean a lot, it’s unlikely they could have stopped the sale (though, they could have generated a lot of negative atmosphere around it).
What can they do other than apologize? Leave and start a studio making new games while they see others making their old games? Decide to have no say? Abandon those they’ve worked with for 20+ years?
