Ubisoft To Shut Down Shadowbane 74
tyen writes "Ubisoft has announced the shutdown of Shadowbane, the first major, fantasy role-playing MMO with true PVP (full asset destruction possible). The shutdown will take place in about two weeks, at the start of May. No official reason has been given by Ubisoft, but running an MMO for free for the past three years, with no significant improvement in market growth during that period, could play a part in the decision. There's been no response from Ubisoft yet on calls to open source the code. "

I thought the game was an experiment to see how many bugs a person can tolerate.

EVE is doing well in the "economic simulation for psychopaths" arena
I object to this ignorant oversimplification of EVE's player demographic. I have absolutely no interest in economic simulations!
