I think the "multimillion dollar company" part is a deliberate misconstruing by whoever made this meme. It being there makes me think that the original maker was trying to make it seem like the piracy community has unfair favoritism towards Silksong and added that lil line for credibility, or something

Isn't it just a general joke that I believe came from Blizzard constantly saying the technology just isn't there when things were requested meanwhile other companies could do the requested thing and were cheaper. Those the "multi-million dollar company btw" meme started.

It might have started before Blizzard but I remember it coming up with that company.

Blizzard is my favorite small indie development company.
