So not only is the nearly 400 employee staff on edge about losing their jobs, they honestly don't know if they're the specific people who should be planning to look for work. ArenaNet, which is currently owned by South Korean developer NCSoft, currently manages Guild Wars 2 and is the primary focus of their day-to-day operations[...]

Confession time: It's been a while since I've played Guild Wars 2, NCSoft and Arena Net's hugely popular MMORPG I've been a fan of the game since its release in 2012, especially since it didn't have a required monthly subscription to play I leveled my Ranger up off and on for a couple of years,[...]

Netmarble Games Corp has announced that 5 million users have registered for mobile MMORPG Lineage II: Revolution since the game's global launch in 54 countries just two months ago.

If you'd like some insight into why the MOBA didn't take off despite the best attempts NCSOFT made by bringing back City of Heroes characters like The Statesman, you can check out my review of the game here But the short of it is, despite being a different take on a MOBA, MxM wasn't quite different[...]

Credit// Netmarble Games [rwp-review-recap id="0"] Netmarble and NCSoft's Lineage II: Revolution released back in November with a considerable amount of hype When I first got started playing the game, I found it to be much like I expected. Lineage II: Revolution is a fun, if a bit cookie-cutter MMO And with high-fidelity 3D graphics, it does give many traditional[...]

And given that Netmarble and NCSOFT are the ones behind the scenes, there was no way this game was going to be an exception. Despite the baseline annoyance I feel at every game with micro-transaction structures that involve loot boxes thanks to all of the recent complaints, I don't really have anything negative to say about Lineage[...]
