It’s a sales bonus, so the 250m is probably a cap not the floor, or a projected amount based on prior sales. I never read anywhere that it was literally a flat value owed based only on release date, but if somebody has some more specific reference to that I’d like to read.
My understanding was it was for getting the game out on early access by a certain date, which they were going to hit, which is why they were unceremoniously and illegally fired.
Yeah I’m imagining there’s more criteria to the payout than just that. The release date might have been the only milestone they could frustrate in a deniable way
