I can't speak for why Daybreak did it. Only they and maybe Rogean/Nilbog know why. However, if I had to guess, they probably did some math, realized that the P99 player base isn't costing them a lot of money (some play on TLPs already so you don't lose money on those people, some would never play TLP anyway, and some would never touch a TLP for the first time or ever again if you sued P99 and killed it). So they probably figured, given the comparatively small monetary hit they are taking, the PR value of agreeing to let P99 operate was better than trying to shut it down (honestly, it probably would've cost them more in filings and legal fees to shut P99 down if Rogean/Nilbog tried to resist than they would make in a year from a portion of the tiny player base switching to TLPs). As far as subsequent IP owners, their hands are tied by the legal agreement. Simple answer there. | |||

![]() why would the russian oligarch who currently owns the EQ IP care what we do with eq emulators when their only interest is to wring the last drops of profitability from whoever still plays the live game?
daybreak employee's glassdoor reviews tell you all you need to know, they prioritize monetization over bug fixes and actually fun new content they don't even think about EQEMU, not even a passing thought. | ||

they used to just shut the servers down when people stopped playing a game then someone realized Whales exist and love the cash shops in games i logged on live this week and didn't know wtf to do with my hotbars because my live character is level 120 with 40,000 AAs, 39,000 of them i got instantly when i bought some expansions and a month of game time 2 years ago when they released Kunark/Velious/Luclin 3.0 Reboot expansions they can't even be fucking bothered to do new/returning player onboarding right Quote:

![]() Lets just hope they dont start realizing nobody plays on their classic TLP servers (tormax) because they have p99.

If anything p99 addicts who are really hardcore about it will actually roll on new live TLPs to compete during the pre-luclin content then just come back to p99. | |||

![]() Yeah by no means would live compare in a side by side experience, but tormax was intended to be a classic server. And if there were no EMU's you know we'd all have been on it.
