I know it's unlikely, but I hope they make a push to have ID start releasing their engine source code again.

Because suddenly this erases the fact that the parent company, who gets all the money for that game (devs do not get royalties and any sales based bonus windows are long past) are still constantly glazing israel and the idf?
Sorry, said parent company that iD are unionizing to protect themselves from. Said parent company who will shutter entire studios in the name of short term number juicing and then literally talk about how they were exemplars of what studios should be and made amazing games.

Yeah, maybe pirate the game and send a donation to CWA instead
