Some kind of corpo takeover where every creative and writer who actually created Disco Elysium were forced out, including the lead who came up with the entire universe. It’s not like they can just produce equally good work separately, either; apparently Kurvitz (the writer) needs the right team to focus his creative output.
What was the issues? I vaguely remember there being drama/issues but didn’t pay attention at the time?

Here’s a 2.5h investigative report of the breakup of ZA/UM. It’s worthwhile if you’ve got the time and inclination.
That is a long time indeed lol.
