Lost all their talent - Anonymous employee Retro Studios Employee Review

Retro is a shadow of its former self. The company made terrible decisions after the Metroid Prime games. It used to have some of the best talent in the industry, and it still has a lot of good artists, but it lost almost all of its top-tier engineering and design talent after Metroid Prime 3 while bringing on a lot of people who never should have been hired. It didn't value its talent highly enough and now it's paying the price, and the management doesn't know how to rebuild a team half as good as what it used to have.
