With the purchase of 100% of Funcoms shares by Tencent seemingly soon to be a done deal, what does everyone think it will mean for TSW/SWL (& Age of Conan too).
It looks like main focus now will be Exiles & the new Dune mmo.
EDIT: Seems the Dune project is a survival game in the same vein as Exiles.
So what hope for SWL/AoC now?
In Tencents shoes I wouldn't be prepared to fund servers for "maintenance mode" games. (lets assume there is very little profit to be made in 2020)
So imo, 2 options, close the servers or produce new content.
Does anyone think the later is a possibility?
Are there any Devs actively involved with the games these days?
I know very little of Tencent cept they are Chinese, are they likely to fund new content?
Will be a sad day when Funcom are no longer independent, the end of an era....
