The private servers have been up a while. But it is always hard for fan projects to gain traction for devs, players, or donations, when the IP could be yanked at any time. NCSoft granting a license should provide one heck of a shot in the arm for this cult classic game.

I am so glad. Loved this back when it came out. Now I dont have to worry so much about the private servers disappearing. This is how all online only games that are taken offline should be handled. Well, ideally the owner is also sent server files so they can run their own server, but thats too advanced for publishers still. Maybe one day theyll be ready for that.
