devs hiding the fact this game will be shut down once aeternum is released

[Ice Cube from the 90s]

they are just not saying it now because the the game would look worse than it already does now (surprisingly); the remaining 2k players would quit and no one would buy aeternum.

this is just a shameful, desperatte money grab at this point

i would be surprised if they sell more 500k copies on consoles at this point

500k?! what level of cope is this

they dont even have enough players to fill 1 server, let alone sell 500k copies of a game they are re-releasing.

Game is not going anywhere. Not for a long time unless we have a nuclear war. Then the servers melt.

Obviously the game(progress) is not going anywhere, thats why its dying :D

They dont hide it, it was scheduled for shutdown with sunset of forum. This is real point when they decided to milk cow and let it die.

It's the same game, we keep our characters and everything. They are just rebranding it to make it seem new and it's not.

I just Started playing Homeworld vanilla and am thinking about finding a copy of Unreal Tournament. A really good one is Rogue Trooper. I'm still on the Wishlist for Dune Awakening and have gone back to Freelancer on PC.
Instead of complaining I have fall back games.

This is exactly what they will do.

Many of the people who comprise Amazon Games came from the old Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) that was bought out by Columbus Nova (an investment firm) and changed to Daybreak Games.

Landmark (originally titled Everquest Next Landmark) was "launched". They were selling cosmetic packs out the bum because it was a cash grab. They shut the game down 7 months later.

New World is 100% in cash grab mode. Its the same people making another failed game under a new name with the same strategies.

[Kenedori]

Sony created landmark as a feature of Everquest Next. Then SOE was sold to Daybreak and they shut it down. The SOE development team did not make the decision to shut it down. The new owners did. It was the investment firm that shut it down. To blame the many people who worked on the project for the failed management decisions of Daybreak Games is wrong. To assume that the same management decisions are going to be made again because some of the people who worked for SOE might be involved in NW is wrong.

Sorry wolfie you stretch your facts to thin.

why are people saying aeternum is this game? i don't understand, did i miss something?

In the dev Q&A they said aeternum is not an MMO but rather a single player RPG. New world as it is now is an MMORPG.

[Kenedori]

Its the same game just the name and "branding" have been changed to dup the unwary.

No, it's an update to the game. You just can't access all the content without the DLC, just like now.
They said they are making more solo friendly content, not that the mmo aspect is gone.
