Aeria Games' community team has gone on record to soothe the nerves of the Echo of Soul NA and EU community after the recent closures of both Korean and Chinese iterations of the game. According to PM_Bacon, Aeria has received assurances from Nivius' CEO that publication of the game as it is and development of new content is assured beginning with the introduction of PvP Season 2.

I'm sorry but if anyone still believes Aeria Games you're very gullible.
Anyone remember how they said aura kingdom founders beta would last more than a week?
And than they just flipped the finger to their founders and guess what it went open for everyone.
And thats just one of the fuckups Aeria did off the top of my head lol...
I know how good (or rather bad) a publisher Aeria games is. Because of that I will not invest any money into the game and just enjoy it as long as it's free AND available.
I on purpose added AVAILABLE because if the 2 biggest markets for this game (Korea & China) are shut down, I really doubt how much longer this game will be available for the US/EU. This game is pretty much the standard Korean grinder that needs either a very committed playstyle to get what you want OR you have to pay lots of money (heard $500 for a +8 lucid crystal - WTF?) to get your stuff, and that's not what most US/EU players are like on both sides.
Also when looking at the EU server population, I gotta say that it's not overly big. The players are very active, but going through Ignea I think that at max 1K players are online at peak hours (3K total for the 3 servers we have in EU), and I doubt that that's enough players to earn money to keep the game going...
