Maybe this will give Markus even more time to just concentrate on the game or better yet more games. One can hope.
Even if Markus did not sell for another 20 years, eventually he deserves to retire and enjoy life. Hopefully that will be many many years from now but no one lives forever except maybe Keith Richards.
It would be nice to know that the company and the game he put a lot of time and effort into would keep going if he wished.
