The problem with that plan is that there very rarely is any accountability for the executives. At worst, they get a lucrative package, and find a new position in another company, with more "experience". It's usually the workers who get blamed and fired, even if they were following orders.

    A personal note from our founder, and what it means for your games.

    Hi,

    Legacy Games has had the privilege of making and selling games both from our website, www.legacygames.com, and at retail since 1998. Back then, I was taking care of four kids and started this company on a wing and a prayer, as they say. Now, after an incredibly fun and rewarding career as CEO, I am transitioning into retirement. Legacy Games will officially wind down and close its operations at the end of 2026.

    What Does This Mean For You?

    While our doors are closing, our commitment to you remains. Here is what you need to know moving forward:

    • Access to Your Games: You will continue to have full access to the games you purchased after Legacy’s closure. Our servers will still be active and you will be able to download your games until February 28, 2027. Any games you download and install will be yours to keep forever. However, if the games are uninstalled after February 28, 2027, you will no longer be able to re-download the game.
    • Ongoing Support: Our customer service team is fully available to assist you during this transition. If you have any immediate questions or need assistance backing up your library, please reach out to us at customerservice@legacygames.com, or our company Gmail account at legacy95@gmail.com.
    • Future Updates: We’ll send a detailed reminder on November 1 with instructions, key dates, and answers to common questions. We will be emailing you a few more times before the end of the year to share additional reminders.

    A Personal Note

    This transition is deeply bittersweet. I have truly loved working with our many talented, committed employees and am profoundly grateful for their contributions to our success. Thank you to Magne, Patrick, Terence, Kelly, Andras, and so many more who made this journey possible.

    Over nearly three decades, Legacy has published more than 80 games across multiple platforms and distributed thousands of titles both digitally and at retail. While it is tough to say goodbye, the gaming industry has evolved significantly with new platforms and technologies, making this the right time to close this chapter—both for the business and for me personally.

    I want to extend my deepest gratitude for your incredible support and business over these many years. Thank you for being a vital part of the Legacy story.

    Best regards,

    Ariella CEO, Legacy Games

    A lot of nice sounding words when it's really about employee monitoring and control.

    This is bad news for Linux developers at work. One reason for wanting Linux is to get rid of all the privacy violating corporate spyware. Now corporate forces this spyware on you, or you can't access any corporate resources from your machine.

    Have fun developing when you need to start worrying what sudo commands you run, because some raise alerts in IT.

    I hope someone reverse engineers mdatp and documents how to limit how much of your privacy it can invade. That shit needs to be jailed into namespaces that are limited to absolute minimum necessary.
