    Make it source available at least. It would be shame for the bus factor to affect the preservation of the games.

      Her mistake was making it known that she personally actually has the supposedly “lost” source. Instead, it should have been anonymously leaked to the public. Now, there’s culpability.

    Release please. I would die for some quality, fan-made ports that add QoL and compatibility updates. Heck, do Fallout Tactics too.

    Weird comment on the legality. Of course departing employees at any company have no rights whatsoever to bring company owned IP with them.

    Happy that she did, but no idea why anyone would think otherwise.
