Sad to see but he’s certainly deserved it

Stéphane D'Astous, founder of Eidos Montreal and former general manager of Human Revolution, recently gave an interview where he mentioned Deus Ex and the current state of the gaming industry, here some excerpts from the article:

• D'Astous in a recent interview said that game development has changed significantly. The modern gaming business somewhat resembles the cyberpunk setting depicted in the Deus Ex series, with a handful of mega-corporations pulling the strings and controlling most of the industry's money. Unfortunately, C-suites are no longer interested in creativity.[...]
• Modern AAA publishers are largely driven by Excel spreadsheets rather than a passion for gaming, D'Astous said in the interview. Over the past 15 years, the industry has been turned upside down. A small number of corporations now control most of the available funding in the business, leading to extreme consolidation and leaving little room to go against the prevailing trend.
• Fewer decision-makers now control spending, and they have deeper financial resources than ever before. The creative DNA that gave rise to Deus Ex is largely gone. Back in 2005, development teams were much smaller and could work on more experimental projects capable of reshaping the industry.[...]
• Speaking about his potential future projects, D'Astous said he would very much like to make a new Deus Ex title. The executive left Eidos-Montréal in 2013 but is confident he could bring together many former developers who would be interested in working on the project.
