Will Trion and Syfy's attempt at making a MMO/TV Show duo work or will it fail horribly? Makes me hope SyFy isn't running the whole show
After 8 years of Defiance and 3 years of Defiance 2050, both titles are being sunsetted on April 29, 2021.
Me too. I remember putting a lot of hours into it before it went free to play. After, it went f2p, I didn't play it near as much, but it makes me nostalgic.
I liked the show and picked up a sealed collectors edition of the 360 game for $5 at a thrift store a couple years ago.
It had a good run honestly, way better than it had any business being, especially for it to be part of a tv series
gamigo confirmed that it has acquired major assets from Trion Worlds, known for online and console MMO games such as Rift, Defiance, Trove and ArcheAge.
The gaming industry, like any industry really, is a cruel mistress. We witness this cold reality yet again when we see the studio Trion Worlds, which was behind Rift, Trove and Archeage, having to cut over 150 workers today.
Well they could have just gone with some crappy Facebook game tie in to the show, we need to keep an open mind on this one, I'm interested to see how this turns out.
I think it definitely has potential, it certainly kept me occupied for quite the time and made me want to pre-order a copy. Only question I have is whether or not I want the physical disc or digital download.
