Planetside 3? EQ Next revival?

They've got options, but I don't see them as the sort of people who are going to go for a Triple A release of anything.

I hope not, the warcraft X disney look in a minecraft setting was pretty off putting.

I have no idea what will happen but I am fairly confident that Rogean isn’t going to pay millions of dollars in attorney fees defending his right to host p99 if it ever actually came to real legal action, regardless of the Constitutional Law essays in this thread from esteemed high elven lawyers.

tbh they probably didn't buy daybreak for EQ (remember daybreak is in charge of other

games like H1Z1 (battle royal), planetside 2 (Basically battlefield), etc)

there's a chance they might not even care and still honor the agreement

EQ1 is DBG's largest revenue generator. All of the game subscriber numbers and revenue numbers for all DBG portfolio were disclosed by EG7 accompanying a press release. EQ1 even edged out DCOU, even though DCOU has over 6 times the active accounts. The document also laid out EXTENSIVELY about monetizing the current user base looking forward.

Do I think the emu community will be ok? Yeah, but there are no guarantees with any change of ownership of any company or IP. These concerns aren't completely unwarranted.

While this is true to an extent ... again, a company can't just sue a person (or another company, or any entity) without cause. I don't care if the Walmart corporation itself hates me with a fiery fiery passion, and deploys all their vast legal resources against me: they cannot bring me to court without cause. If they did, I wouldn't need a lawyer: the judge would throw the case out.

This place didn't operate for a decade without an agreement because Rogean is an idiot who wants to be sued. He has very deliberately drawn a legal line to keep himself safe, for instance by preventing any links to download Titanium here.

Obviously a link to the client would be very convenient ... but that would expose Rogean legally, because then he'd be (potentially) facilitating copyright infringement of IP owned by Daybreak.
