Don't read WCCF often, here is some interesting bit news...
Looks like Nvidia decided it didn't like the way Stardock is developing their game and talk publicly about it, and are probably breaking NDA in the process of publicly bashing them :

Seems it takes the CEO of at least a medium sized developer, who seemingly so far has not sold out to their Gameworks program to stand up to them :

And the odd tweet : https://mobile.twitter.com/draginol/status/632957839556874240
Do these politics happen behind the scenes? Yes of coarse, and is the major reason I dislike Gameworks crap, but dragging this out into public and using market dominance to try and bully a developer for something in Alpha developement, that's not ok IMHO.
