with the latter handling billing services as well as marketing and PR duties while CCP focuses on development.


I haven't been following the whole Nexon thing so I have a quick question.

Does this mean they will be taking over Dev Blogs, Moderation and the like on the forum. Will we still have the same community team or will that be transferred to Nexon?
None ofthe Above

Uh... Nexon would be the partner in Japan only?

I don't read that article as having any bearing on CCP operations the rest of the world, including this web site.

The only end-game content in EVE Online is the crap that makes you rage quit.

So basically Nexon will only be handling PR and marketing in Japan?

That is the way I read that article. I am not claiming to have any inside information.

I feel sorry for all the japanese players =(

Nexon is a terrible company. Its been hacked multiple times, people's accounts and nexon currency stolen and never replaced.

It also handles several other games so anyone targeting any of those games successfully will now have access to some of eve player's accounts as well

Technically, Godzilla is a Japanese invention, so we are the ones who are mispronouncing it Cool
