Maybe don't let the same venture capitalists control that many studios and games, idk.

How would that work in reality?

Just don't immediately sell out as soon as you become successful as a game studio....

Well sure but that's not what was proposed in the top level comment

Guessing Embracer are missing the Extend part.

During the July-December period, Embracer said the number of gaming projects it had in the works fell from 153 to 124, according to VGC. Total headcount was cut by 8%, or 1,387 jobs. These cuts includes 871 game developers at internal studios, 264 at external studios, and 252 internal staff working on game projects as non-developers.

Wow that's a lot of in progress games

They own over 76 studios, most of which I've never heard of and a lot don't even have Wikipedia lages. Just speculating without taking the time to do proper research, my guess is there are some mobile games included.
