It's seriously a shame. I love sprite animation when it's done right and it can work insanely well in after effects, but most of the time its better to hire an artist and animator to do that and go out on a limb for them. I'm glad that they're righting the wrongs but a part of me wonders how this scandal is going to affect them.

Yeah, it's hard to say. Sprites and spriting are a pretty niche subculture. Many people might not care at all.

Yeah, I think it's a big win for sure! They seem to want to do right by artists and the community, which is great to see.
