> [@Adam\_Parvi](#): > > Can Pearl Abyss affect the development of Eve Online? If yes then i’m kinda concerned Right now, the word is “No.” That might change, and yes that could be worrisome, but then again it is possible that PA is looking to CCP _to help them_. ---

Frankly I’m horrified that you would think merging with a click fest / pay to win company in Korea would be the best game on the planets salvation. Hope for the best prepare for the worst. As I round up all my junk for the fire sale and exit after 12 yrs of EVE. Best of Luck fellow pilots. ---

That is a plan to get a rid of old player with large stock of PLEX, but just before that they will block PLEX trade or put huge taxes on PLEX trade!! ---

Now we can only hope for an angel to buy Pearl Abyss. The only company that is known on this planet to buy game rights/game companies that has the money to buy out Pearl Abyss is Microsoft. Yup, they bought Mahjongg and their Minecraft. Then they bought Forza. Lets hope they buy out Pearl Abyss. ---
