almost there but you never sell IP. you sit on it even if you never do anything with it ever again.

True. You need the IP so a bigger company will eat you. Then you leave with the bonus.

You sure?? This Embracer Group seems like some smart young men, and they make a compelling offer. Can I at least sell them a beloved fantasy classic?? As a treat?

embracer group doesn't buy IPs as much as they devour studios. the EA method. selling IP is really rare. think about all the games you want but never got made because the IP owner has been hoarding it for decades even though they clearly want nothing to do with it.
