I have read the different reasons why the IP hasn't been sold, but it just doesn't make any sense to me and likely the rest of you, that a company would rather see a game sit on a shelf doing nothing when customers are willing to pay to play the game.
The one reason that really baffles me is "Losing Face if another company makes it successful" this just seems very childish to me, yes it may be a cultural thing but please we live in a world where sports teams, Companies etc get rid of people who aren't doing a good job to get someone in to do better, I'm preety sure NCSoft would do exactlt the same thing if there CEO wasn't doing a good enough job!
Sorry for the rant, I really want this game back
