Troika Games Liquidating?!

I hate to be the one to bring more bad news about Troika to the surface, but it appears that the studio behind Arcanum, Temple of Elemental Evil, and Vampire: Bloodlines will be selling off their office equipment this weekend. Why would I say such a thing? Because of this post on No Mutants Allowed, confirmed by one of Troika's former employees. The "sale" advertisement:

How could a company that has produced three high quality RPGs, all of which are on my all-time favorite list, be forced to liquidate their offices? I'm speechless.
