That’s a good angle to speculate on it. But the main thing to take away is this: Do they want to pursue this angle, or are they more willing to sit on this IP until the end of the time? I mean, sitting on an IP is a whole lot more legally safe than, you know, attempting to make some new wild legally-distinct numbers-filed-off things from it. (PROTIP: EA does this really well.)
And more importantly, is American McGee willing to rework this whole thing from the ground up?
Speaking as a random creative person: If I was in American McGee’s position, I’d drop this stuff right away and go think of other ventures. The moneybagmen sadly won.
