Hopefully not, we’ll see though.
We had Empires run by Emperors, we had Kingdoms run by Kings, now we have Countries...
i feel BDO vibes, with past experience saying NO PAT TO WIN etc... it just feels like this all over again
If they supposedly had no financial troubles, they'd just self-publish or hold out for another publisher. So its either one of 2 things in reality, they aren't as financially well off as they claim or they are just completely oblivious as to what kind of company my.com is regardless of the "deal." Lets pretend My.com has an amazing deal worked out, that doesn't really matter given their track record which can make or break your game. But feel free to tell me any deals in any regions that My.com have been apart of that have been remotely successful for a year or even 6 months.
At least that's the story told about Archeage by Trion apologists for many years now.
