This sort of helps prove my point...
There is an argument against acquiring any studio, no matter how obvious they may or might not be.
-"RAD fucked up The Order, they where never going to want to fund another AAA by them again."
-*insert your argument against Housemarque*
-"Bluepoint only did remakes, Sony was never going to be interested in them anyway"
-"Remedy did not have any history PS, it was never going to happen"
-Just ask
Blackleg-sanji1 about the bullet point list of arguments that people bring out as soon as Falcom is ever brought up in acquisition talks.
-"Kojima is a money sink, and as soon as he leaves, the studio collapses"
Some of these are good arguments, but also, all of those studios have double or triple the amount of reasons why they would be a great fit for SIE.
But people will pull out the first argument they can give for why an acquisition was never going to happen for the sake of deflecting criticism directed at SIE.
