HanbitSoft: "Flagship Is Selfish And Irresponsible" on Hellgate Guru
translates an article originally written in Korean where HanbitSoft lays into
Flagship management over the uncertain state of the Hellgate: London and
Mythos IPs (story), and says they are considering legal
action to protect their interests and those of their userbase. Here's a
bit:
According to HanbitSoft, they offered several methods and the means to keep Flagship alive in consideration of the users, but Flagship majorly lacked in effort. Hanbitsoft already has offered large amounts of investments but Flagship replied with ridiculous counter-offers and the negotiations went south. Even so, HanbitSoft continued to make investment offers which were all rejected, leading to the lay-offs of all of the Flagship employees.
HanbitSoft also stated, “Flagship not only lacked effort, but were only looking for personal gain. Firing all of the Flagship employees in order to protect the personal interests of its founding members only shows how selfish and irresponsible they are.”
Either way, aren't they the same people that ran it into the ground? Ignored the community? Charged an arm and a leg for a limited product? Promised one thing (while charging for it) and not delivering? Ignored the user base through the weekend, through Monday, and most of Tuesday? Screwed over the "Founders?" Is screwing over any new purchasers of the game? These are just a few items of concern...
Yet they happened to have all the money on hand to pay the employees for a month. Gee, I wonder where it came from...
It's not just a company closing or a game not succeeding. Flagship, its management, has exhibited profound levels of arrogance, incompetence, and a certain magnitude of disdain for the community.
And again, we wanted this to work. We liked the original game. We've been voal.
Not wanting companies to fail, but celebrating the failure of Flagship,
Ray
