We settled this last winter. The statement to the investors or whatever entities need to see a return, declared that DPG has a roster of games all in what we might call "warehouse" status. The properties will be kept up, with the metric being to keep the IP's at a warehoused level of activity. Which they enjoy.

Unless and until that level alters downward, the people with money involved have no concern about our pixels. The entire basis of the statement was, this game is on a purely custodial category in the company's overall business plan. You can't penetrate the layers of we don't care, when it comes to the live and TLP servers.

I'm on board with this. The market is absolutely flooded with bad titles.

Steam destroyed the video game industry.

I miss when konami and bandai and nintendo and sony had control over what we got to play.

Computers and computer games were nice at first but with everything the west does we took it too far.

DBG litreally blaming THJ for their flop.

This is why there is a lawsuit. They make shitty servers and nobody wants to play their shitty servers when there are excellent ones out there made by people who care about the game and the legacy.

DBG cares not at all about how much they made.

They literally think they can't compete with THJ.

Counterpoint, it's their IP and they shouldn't have to. Not in the way you think. I mean legally.

Sorry for triggering you, snowflake. I see you triple posting and I guess that's your way to coping with the inevitable. Sorry it strikes you as unfair. Why don't you take a Xanax and take the edge off?
