I feel like this could create some pretty toxic incentives.
Like, imagine if the moment a person dies all of their works immediately go into the public domain… What’s to stop a company like Disney from just straight-up assassinating people who create promising IPs? They paid 4 billion dollars for Star Wars — but why not just have George Lucas murdered for a fraction of the price?

Big “Deranged Nazi doctor in an old Indiana Jones movie” vibes.
Medium is basically a public blogging platform — anyone can post whatever they want there with no editorial oversight.
Apparently they announced the game at the same time as the layoffs so they’d be able to release a demo and some promotional material. That way the people they laid off would still be able to show off their work to prospective employers as they job hunt.
