Disco Elysium wasn't developed through the typical game development model. Back in 2005, a novelist/musician named Robert Kurvitz formed an artist/philosophy collective in Estonia. The collective failed to produce much except alcoholism and poverty, but they did come up with a bunch of fun worldbuilding. Robert Kurvitz published a novel exploring some of these ideas in 2013, which never saw publication outside of Estonia. In 2015, Kurvitz and his fellow artists decided to try taking one of the worlds they developed and turn it into a video game.
An Estonian businessman named Margus Linnamäe decided to invest in the game project. The dev team ended up being about 50 people (35 of which worked out of a squat in Estonia.)
Then in 2022, Kurvitz and his 2 other artist/philosopher-collective-colleagues were fired from the game dev company.
This was not shocking given the game's art-house origin. The game's businessmen investors wanted to make all the money that they could, and the artist/philosophers didn't want to see their art milked for all its worth. The specific intricacies are hidden under legal settlements, but it's basically just that classic tale. Musicians vs record executives.
The game studio, lacking its creative leadership, also laid off staff.

The regulator said it has been undertaking several campaigns to educate the investors to be vigilant while taking investment decisions based on stock tips. Sebi said data, emails and other documents are being retrieved from the seized devices and detailed investigation is in progress. Anastasia Vlasova/Getty Images At the start of 2018, the company attempted to launch an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) which would enable it to enable payments (and earn the cash that comes from doing so). The initial signals were promising, especially given Telegram’s user base is already fairly crypto-savvy. It raised an initial tranche of cash – worth more than a billion dollars – to help develop the coin before opening sales to the public. Unfortunately, third-party sales of coins bought in those initial fundraising rounds raised the ire of the SEC, which brought the hammer down on the whole operation. In 2020, officials ordered Telegram to pay a fine of $18.5 million and hand back much of the cash that it had raised. Telegram has become more interventionist over time, and has steadily increased its efforts to shut down these accounts. But this has also meant that the company has also engaged with lawmakers more generally, although it maintains that it doesn’t do so willingly. For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores.
