When I say "new" concepts. I mean a game or MMO that we haven't seen in the past 10 years. Like old Sandbox MMOs, not reskinned WoW-clones like Wildstar.



It didn't do well fast enough. Honestly. Honor, dignity and company names were at stake. That is probably one reason they fired everyone. They didn't keep anyone because that is their culture.
Sandbox games aren't new concepts either though.

Seriously. Go show me one of the dozens or so that have shown up on Kickstarter that are actually being worked on with some sort of progress.

Even EQ Next has mostly fallen off the radar, and since the studio change and new focus, I doubt it'll be what it's being purported to be as well.
