Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!
Speaking as a lifelong LucasArts fan going all the way back to Maniac Mansion, this is really upsetting to me. It's one thing for the Disney Corporation to put a bullet in the brain of LucasArts -- it was on death's door anyway, all they did was put it out of its misery. But then to leave the corpse out to rot like this... it's really genuinely sad. They could've at least posted a press release about the closing.
It says a lot about where LucasArts stood in the grand scheme of the Lucasfilm deal. It wasn't so much an afterthought, it wasn't even a thought at all. LucasArts wasn't shut down, it was abandoned.
