A-Bomb to Atlas Reactor closing. Sucks, even though I knew it was coming. I stand by my affirmation that Gamigo bought Trion for Trove, and all other games are on borrowed time (Archeage not withstanding). Anyone who believed the 'We'll keep the games running' schtick after the months of nearly radio silence and non-news, is naive.

For the question of the week: Would I have liked to play CoH for all those missing years? Absolutely. Do I feel 'betrayed' because it was out there and I had no idea? Not really. I can just be vaguely hopeful now that I might get the chance to play it again at dome point, though more than likely NC Soft will shut the thing down.

For the question of the week if this would happen to my favorite mmo i would be the one to create a private server... Also related to the previous week's question i won't be as pessimistic as the wiever from last week but are you guys ok? i mean the views on youtube are not what what they used to be and lots of people use adblocks....
