Epic's Value Skyrockets Thanks to Fortnite (and other stuff...) - Fortnite - MMORPG.com
Fortnite News - Bloomberg has analyzed Epic Games and has placed its corporate value between $5B and $8.5B. While the valuation is based on all of Epic's business holdings, including the licensing of the Unreal Engine, it is clear that "Fortnite mania fuels Epic growth to $8.5B" as the headline reads at Bloomberg. Fortnite alone is estimated to see over $2B in earnings this year, something that has propelled Epic to new heights.

Do you understand how business works? The game had low player base and was making shit money.....there is nothing to forgive they gave the game a shot and it didn't work out so they shut it down and then, if I'm not mistaken, made the assests free to anyone who would like to do something with them....
It's nice that you would go broke trying to provide a service to others, it really is....but Epic is a business with many employees to think about on other projects...it would be shitty to drag all of them down to prop up a failing game.....
But now the big business is done, the lucre is rolling in and Paragon does not even get a second look? If you are right and its a failing game, how about them looking at making another game for those sort of fans?
I am not suggesting they go broke to please a minority of players, I am suggesting they don't drop loyal Paragon players just because they don't want a game that is the latest gaming phenomena.
You said they were working on other projects, fair enough what are they?
They also completely refunded all the money you spent, whether it was on founders packs or in game items like boosters and skins. The game just didn't garner enough player interest, even before Fortnight took off, to keep going.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
Paragon received a number of major overhauls that most games could only dream of, and never found more than lukewarm reception. Paragon lacked an identity and EPIC clearly had no idea what direction to take it in.
