A medieval survival MMO that closed in 2021 is back from the dead, but fans are reacting with a whole lotta 💩💩💩
It's always a bummer when an MMO, or any multiplayer game, gets shut down and goes forever dark. That was the fate of medieval survival sandbox, which entered early access in 2018 but closed its doors barely three years later, apparently due to financial issues and disagreements between developer Bitbox and its publisher, Xsolla.
Not quite. In the official Discord, the May 30 announcement of Life of Feudal's rebirth was met with 95 cry-laugh emojis, 74 poops, 62 clowns, and a group effort to spell out the word S-C-A-M in emoji letters. To be fair, there were also 35 thumbs-ups, which I attribute to people being genuinely happy .First off, there's the price. Life Is Feudal's new publisher, Long Tale Games, is currently running a playtest that costs $20 to join.
It isn't particularly clear what the subscriptions gives you, either."With your subscription, you'll receive monthly bonuses and items that won't disrupt the game's balance," the announcement reads."The longer your subscription, the more substantial these perks become. We'll provide more information about this reward system closer to the game's release."
There are more red flags besides just the price. The website of the new publisher, Long Tale Games, states it is"experimenting with variants of rebuilding and relaunching games" and"employs innovative monetization strategies and groundbreaking user acquisition techniques" with a"diverse portfolio" that spans"from classic games to web3" .
