Nonsense. AGD (now Himalaya) has made many statements to the contrary. They’re in it for the money, folks, just like any other software developer and just like Sierra used to be. AGD needed some way of learning the technology, and decided to concentrate their efforts on building games on top of already existant mythologies, thus saving themselves a lot of time and effort. (And in the process making some statements that really should have gone unstated.)
