Investing can be very unpredictable, but when there are indicators of risk floating around, the investors tend to be cautious. EA's game volume this year will still boost share value. How much is the question.

CD Projekt Red is there to make money. That didn't stop them from making a masterpiece, despite having people leave when they were told the standard they were going for was too high for their own tastes. Read this response to Glassdoor comments of people who left:



SOME managers and brass in charge of studios/developers are willing to put in the hard work and effort to make a great game (and force their employees to as well). SOME, who are ALSO there to make money, do not mind tearing down something and rebuilding it to make it better. That angered some employees who left, so much so that they posted badly on glass door.

And you know what? The Witcher 3 is an absolute MASTERPIECE. So GOOD JOB CD Projekt Red on not taking the easy way out.



Bottom line: making money and striving to make a quality game that isn't just about money is not a mutually exclusive proposition.
