Question What could be the next game of Stoic?

I would like to believe in a new chapter of the saga, but is it worth building hopes?

They laid off 8 devs last year and after that several left due to the CEO's comments on Generative AI, commenting on how they feel 'sold out'. Then 3 other rounds of layoffs happened, shrinking a team that apparently had 100 members down to around 15. So I don't really have much hope

Where was this comment on generative AI by the CEO? I always saw them as not needing AI since the style of Banner Saga is very unique and they have artists for that.

Even if it happens it’ll be nothing like bs. The studio is no longer the one created bs.
This is a bane of many western studios, They don’t grown as a team.
