Tldr

The offer, which Ware describes as for “a buyout of any future royalties from the game”, was allegedly for $7500

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

In another post it was said that $7500 per member was offered, totaling to $22500.

Which is still not a lot for giving up all future royalties, but their counter offer of 10x that ($225'000 in total) is a little much in my opinion as well.

But I'm still glad they spoke out, this way a more open discussion can happen about this topic.

For selling out all future royalties for a game in as huge and popular a franchise as GTA? Yeah, i think that counter offer is pretty fair actually

They swing low you swing back high and maybe find somewhere in the middle.
