They cited poor sales? Wasn't the remake of the first one a hit? Even though it was competing with a bunch of great new shit at the time?

I remember it having initial difficulties due to optimization problems on most platforms. It's almost like what they're really saying is "We see how much time and effort it would take to remake it properly, and we aren't willing to give that to developers because SHAREHOLDERS." An excuse which an executive from Larian recently commented on and provided some useful insight towards.
