Is it true iRO/Warpportal/Gravity will be closinh soon? Based on my friends information, for the last 5years the stocks of gravity is declining by 20-50% on a quarterly basis and right now gravity is just riding on life support? Just want to know if this is true or not. I did some research on gravity's market value and indeed its on a downward spiral.

wouldn't surprise me to be honest. Bad business decisions, splitting the player base into two servers they can barely manage, opening another server while struggling to maintain the two they are barely running already, failure to implement much needed/wanted patches, pissing off Kro with a "classic" server, sakray testing being treated as a formality rather then actual test before releasing new content and taking almost no action on serious issues plaguing the game.

 

However iRO is probably being kept afloat by the other games WP is running. I don't know if any of them are doing particularly well or not so I can't really say.

Im actuallu asking a question, because if im going to base it on facts, specially on their market value, id rather spend my money somewhere else if the company will be closed in the near future. Thats why i am lookinh for verification from the staff or GM team.

also, if the share price falls too far, they'll just do a reverse stock split. they've done this in the past.

Man you don't ask the company if it's going to close. They're not going to tell you if it's.

You are indeed correct, its either they sell the company or declare bankruptcy to avoid any liability.

@Nechro
i've seen the data from the past, indeed they made a spliy share, but not at this level of value. The value right now is very low.


Ill probably stop playing this game until its value regains its normal rate of 8$, right now its at 3.34$ its on the brink of becoming candy value.

you realize that a reverse stock split does not increase the value of the company right?

they could take all their outstanding shares and just issue a single instead, worth the entire value of the company. that doesn't mean that the company is in good shape.

Yeah, thats why im going to take my money somewhere else, iRO is no longer a good investment knowing the possibility of its original developer closing out in the near future. And not to mention the Original creators of ragnarok is going to launch a new game that can possibly put a death sentence for ragnarok when that game gets released.
