Disco Elysium's lead designer told us 'any 'repayment' of the company’s money which was used to illegally acquire a majority stake does not erase the main consequence of the initial injustice.'

between founding members of the studio and its current leadership, with core members of the developer/art collective claiming ZA/UM's current CEO, Ilmar Kompus, usurped his position through financial malfeasance. Both sides of that withdrawn lawsuit, Kender and Kompus, are claiming victory, while one of those ousted founding developers told PC Gamer that their fight is far from over.

The allegation against Kompus is that he sold the company its own property and then used those illegitimate proceeds to purchase his majority stake. By now transferring €4.8 million to the company to repay it for a"void transaction," the intended message seems to be that he didn't use company money to buy his shares. But why did he have the €4.8 million in the first place?

Kender concluded,"To the extent that Ilmar Kompus returned the illegally taken 4,800,000 euros, Kaur Kender achieved the goal of the lawsuit filed, and the court proceedings in this case will be terminated." "Further, any 'repayment' of the company’s money which was used to illegally acquire a majority stake does not erase the main consequence of the initial injustice⁠—which is that Kompus remains the majority owner, a position that he was only able to attain by using the company’s money as his own," said Kurvitz."In light of this, there has been no material change in our situation, and we continue to consider our legal options.
