Can't read it, but I see it's about Asheron's Call 2, and I read about it on MMORPG.com

Earth and Beyond was also cancelled due to a similar situation. The game doesn't stop being profitable per se, it just fails to meet a "profit quota", and that's it, it's gone.

Too bad the article is pay-per-view.

It's pay per view so that the Economist can meet the "profit quota" ....

What's up with Lecter deleting all his damn posts? Or is FM doing it?

Not I.

Lecter's exercising his own brand of trolling, to counter ananzi.

Either that or he's off his medication.
