wow, they "killed" an open source project.... did they really think it was that easy?
I mean they also got 2.4 mil and they can continue collecting them from new projects
They haven't gotten the money yet, and they probably never will get the full amount.
They probably won't even be taking anyone else to court, either. Ryujinx will probably make major changes or shut down entirely to avoid getting sued in the first place.
Why do you say this?
I'm guessing the project was run as an LLC and the LLC will just go bankrupt.
That's on paper. It's extremely unlikely that they set an LLC with millions of dollars in assets. The reason they set up the LLC was that if they got sued they could settle for any amount, knowing that they would just declare bankruptcy and pay nothing except their legal fees (which, having settled immediately, are very low)
