A trend that doesn't always work. If you want the old grind and systems, you're free to whimper away from Nexon and play [Redacted].
You can even pick from several [Redacted] to get the exact version to suit your nostalgia.
Nexon does need to change game plans going forward. But that's the keyword, forward.
A "nostalgia/classic" server does nothing but split the already split community even further apart. Let's not, okay?

Ah yes nothing keeps our community so tight knit than a 'GO AND PLAY lLLEGAL SERVERS THEN' response. Thanks buddy, I look forward to contributing toward stolen content before nexon inevitably [Redacts] them...

And then pepe comes in acting like their own experiences with the game, and nexon america specifically, are a good read on the company as a global whole. It's not.

Don't you think that it's a tad bit hypocritical that you get ticked off when you claim I straw manned you yet you're still peddling these assumptions? I'll make it clearer for you: They ain't worth the asking price.

Who in their right mind would buy Nexon for $13.2 billion lol

People who believe the investment will be worth it for whatever profits the absurd Asian-market revenue would bring them. Stop looking at the company as a player and start looking at things from the business side of things and things will start to become clear. There's far more to nexon than "lol what a terrible company, can't even fix bugs in a 15 year old game smh".

Yes good luck finding someone willing to dish out 10 years worth of ROI. You must be kidding me if you truly believe Disney will take the bait and buy Nexon simply based on their market evaluation. The former bid of $9 bn (equal to Kim's shares) by other parties was still too much for some that they planned to form a consortium if it went through. For reference, Supercell (who makes more than Nexon annually) was acquired by Tencent for about $8.6 bn. You don't need a business degree to figure this out, Nexon is basically that item in FM 1 entrance that never gets sold despite an absurdly high c/o.
