Per Google Translate:
“According to our information, Spiders, the Parisian studio behind numerous action-RPGs since its founding in 2008, will soon close. Lacking a buyer for this Nacon subsidiary, the court-appointed administrator in charge of the French publishing group's restructuring will request its liquidation from the commercial court this Wednesday, a " mere formality at this stage " according to several sources close to the matter.”
“For the past few days, CV updates and self-study sessions have replaced work on future productions for the studio behind GreedFall , Steelrising , Mars War Logs , and The Technomancer . The Works Council is organizing the purchase of equipment by employees who wish to do so, and the Spiders staff has chosen to transform tonight's final weekly drink into a formal tribute to the studio's eighteen years of existence. French law theoretically requires the liquidator to carry out layoffs within fifteen days of the court ruling.”

“Received word from an anonymous insider. The Sony DRM issue is unintentional. From what we gathered, Sony accidentally broke something while fixing an exploit. They've known about the confusing UI for a while, but didn't see it as urgent. Hoping for a clarifying statement now.”
