The company caught Microsoft's eye as a potential acquisition in 2021, but although Larian finds the attention "flattering," it's just not interested.

It's rare to find people who love their work more than a huge payday. For 90% of the world, work is done to not starve and die of exposure. For another 9% it's to not live in relative squalor. So to find someone willing to give up the security a lot of money brings is rare and I don't blame people who take it. It's really up to society to ensure people can live and live well without either work and huge amounts of cash. That's the only way we're going to escape this capitalist dystopia of money being the only reason most people do anything commercial.
