Edited article to be more reflective of 5 pillars, including: — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eschneider1 (talk • contribs)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * deleted descriptions that were not "neutrally voiced"
 * Added a history section with 5 citations for more notability/information on the organization, versus just a list format of game offerings.
 * Updated image per Zackmann08 request
 * Delete - The vast majority of coverage on the studio was when they opened, but it fails WP:SUSTAINED. Most of the other articles mentioning them are predominantly about Elder Scrolls Legends, not the studio itself. WP:NOTINHERITED applies here.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 02:02, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep passes WP:GNG. Ongoing coverage of the studio's work and its relation to that work constitutes sustained coverage. For example this provides both non-trivial coverage of the studio and of the game it is producing.  The coverage of the game does not detract from the coverage of the studio.

 * That is a WP:PRIMARY rather than a secondary source. Those can be used in an article but are not evidence of notability on their own.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 09:01, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * The interview itself is primary but the information surrounding it is secondary. Besides, for the purpose of WP:SUSTAINED common sense dictates that interviews would be evidence that the subject has attracted attention over a significant period of time. This, combined with the other earlier significant third party coverage satisfies the notability criteria. Winner 42  Talk to me!  14:33, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * That's not how it works. The reference is entirely based on an interview with Dire Wolf Digital and therefore fails since it is a PRIMARY source. It contains no independent analysis or opinion on the company. The reference fails WP:CORPDEPTH and/or WP:ORGIND. -- HighKing ++ 18:22, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete References are not intellectually independent or relating to their productions and not to the company itself. References fail WP:CORPDEPTH and/or WP:ORGIND. Notability is not inherited. Fails GNG and WP:NCORP. -- HighKing ++ 18:22, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete -- promotionalism only and significant RS coverage not found. Sourcing fails WP:CORPDEPTH. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:22, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - I don't see any sources, in the article or elsewhere, that would confer notability. It's all the same usual marketing churn and stuff not strictly about the company itself. Reyk  YO!  06:22, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
