    I had a lot of fun with this game. It had the low population problem which is a self devouring monster.

    Boundless was a very good Building MMO but it never got the population it needed and has been pretty much abandoned by the previous devs for last two years. No updates and the player base completely ignored. I think they’re glad to be shot of it. Apparently Monumental just asked them out of the blue on LinkedIn if they’d consider offloading it to them!

    I loved this game, hated the devs they didnt give the game the love and attention it deserved and the devs catered to a small subset of toxic individuals for far to long.

    Are they making money out of this? Not sure where these acquisitions are going.

    From what I’m reading on the Crowfall forums there doesn’t seem to have been any updates since Monumental took over, so not sure how their players feel about them buying yet another failing game at this stage.

    Don't overlook the possibility of simply buying failed companies for the tax benefits.

    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    Twenty years of experience in payment processing and anti money laundering makes me suspicious of any business venture that doesn't appear to make good financial sense.
