I just heard about this news earlier today.
Truthfully, I never played Wildstar - and based off of what I'm reading on Massively, the game had some mixed reviews. But I'm sure there were other people who love Wildstar just as much as we love COH, who are just as heartbroken over this as we once were / still are.
I guess my question is... is this normal? I feel like this has happened with NCSoft more than just a few times now. Does this happen with other gaming studios as frequently? I hate NCSoft for what they did to City of Heroes, but I will say that I always thought they released fairly strong gaming titles - even after they axed COH.
