Fun Fact 95% of all Nexon Games has been shut down a year right after people spent their money
This is a Korean Pay 2 Win Gacha company they have a long list of games just like this with bland cheaply made environments attempting to sell cosmetics the coomer type skins and then they shut down the game a year later they have been doing this for years.

In fact Nexon is so bad they released DNF Duel for PC and then immediately abandoned it when asked why, they said they were afraid it might fail so they didn't want to spend any money for a season pass

Then when they realized the game actually was selling well they decided to make a season pass and support it for 1 year and then abandoned it again when asked why the hell did you abandon it a second time even tho the first season pass sold well they said they are scared the second season pass might fail.

They do this with all their games except DFO

I did a bit of research on Nexon, there is a hand full of games that shut down servers early, I see they mainly made mobile games, only lately they seem to be focusing on console/PC games. If you look at the Wikipedia link you can see what I am talking about, I don't know why the original post has so much hate.

1. It is a free to play game, at least you have a choice to play it without dropping a dime and if it closes then you are still not out of pocket.

2. If someone wants to spend money on it is a personal choice.

3. Nexon has every right to close a game down if it is not profitable.

4. There will always be upset gamers, if you don't like the company, don't try and bait/gaslight people in feeling the same as you do, everyone has a free choice to decide that for themselves.

5. Putting Trump in a comment about a game has no relevance, no one cares what your grievance with a public figure is. You could have used many examples but you chose to use Trump, don't whine about it when people point that out.

6. If you are going to make accusations, back it up with facts, no one is going to believe you because you posted something.

I am excited to play this game, but still weary on the longevity, in the meantime I will enjoy the ride until it stops.
They, or someone else who clearly wants to keep their image clean, scrub their Wikipedia page, so it's actually not a good source. For example, any mention of Hyper Universe was removed from the Wikipedia page after that game was shut down, specifically in this edit:

A Gacha Company?
I never saw a Nexon Game in the Sensor Tower Monthly Revenue Report for Gacha Games.
The only south Korea game on the Top Ten is Nikke from Shift Up.(Stellar Blade).
The others are CN or JP Gacha Games.
Maple Story and Vindictus are the only Nexon games that reached my space,
both are 10years+ old and still alive.
So No they dont cancel every game after one year.

You call nexon scam for "good" reasons, but then you proceed to call Dark Tide a good game and not a scam.
You need to revaluate your opinions, anyway can't be a scam if i'm not paying, honestly even if it's goofy sometimes, it's at least free of political garbage i see in every game lately, plus it's pve so i don't have to deal with the cheating scum that infests pvp games.
I hope it doesn't shut down and it actually improves instead, dunno why people like you spend time and hours just to ♥♥♥♥ on games, you have like 400 pages of texting, do you even play videogames or you spend all of your time ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on them?
Again need you revaluate your life i guess, just a tip. Do whatever you want afterwards.

Nexon is a very old company that has been making games for decades. Some of their oldest games are still going.

Sometime the first launch doesn't go as planned and the game gets shut down. Some come back after changing things. Like any other online game you can get burned. Enjoy it while you can. Spend money if you think it will be worth it.

I remember the first western launch of DFO got shut down. Spent about $80 total. When the game came back they gave away some free stuff and eventually I had earned more in-game than what I had before. Of course that isn't always the case but it is what it is.

First of all Is very poor made.
Graphics looking more like UE3 not at all as UE5 (devs skills here i bet is the cause).
Every "descendant" have mixed powers stolen from the Warframe abilities from different avatars! (nothing unique, no creativity).
The issues with the monetisation is bad, especially if you decide to spend money and you wont get your delivery of the digital goods you paid for.
Wont call the game a scam but actually a cheap rushed one which to produce income for the company in the typical lifetime span of such a game. The prices r exaggerated & fishy (you need to spend way more to get something which is ~40% lower than what you actually depozited to pay for, which make the customers to call it a scam, well it is a scummy move & it is not the only one).
I would say give it a try, test it out, but don't go to crazy about it or you will regret it. Respect your time, money and play something more worthy+decent than this IF all this elements r bothering you (and this r barely a percent of "how to not make a game" you discover in TFD).

I wouldn't say running, more like crawling.. Nexon completely killed that game by following certain policies but in a dumb way..

Looks like I was right about this game all along

Hence why it would've been better if it was any other company besides Nexon to make such a game.. Nexon doesn't give 2 ♥♥♥♥♥ about their playerbase anyway, never had and never will.. They are only happy if you buy their overpriced skins..

Yeap, nexon makes the most ephemerous Digital fairy dust that disappears pretty fast, from all korean grindfest slop mmo, they are absolutely the worst offenders when it comes to shut down servers / games.

So, don't spend money? The game is free-to-play, just play for free, and if they close the serves, you lost nothing. By the way, you got banned... Nice.
