If they merged I think it would be great for Koei, if they lawsuit is taken care of. I get the impression that Koei is smaller, has less money, and cannot take as many risks as Tecmo and every other larger company. It would be great to see Koei able to make new games instead of having to rely on sequels more than almost any other company that exists.
