The case stated that anyone can run servers now regardless of size, and if you do not monetize Fusionfall, it is free reign. Currently, OpenFusion and Retrobution are fan projects that are alive and kicking and I'm sure that there are more out there!

The reason is because fan controlled servers are a wild west of criminal activity that paints a negative light on the original creators/owners. Disney shut down Club Penguin fan servers because of a massive issue of P3do moderators contacting ch1ld users for unsavory reasons.

Sea of thieves

Yo, facts same thing with the Pirates of the Caribbean online. That game was so much fun it had so many options to customize your look of your pirate and your ship plus the ship combat was so much fun

Also happened with Fusion Fall a few years back.

Jonny’s got a point

Club penguin shutting down was possibly the biggest disaster in the 2010s. Disney literally just came and destroyed everything, used the corpse of club penguin and dressed it up and danced it around, and left after putting the body in a vault of acid.

LEGO actually as publicly stated that their fine with people hosting private servers of the LEGO Universe rebuild. The large, public server was the only thing that they asked to have shut down. Moving forward, anyone can download LU and play it or even host their own server for some friends.

I was obsessed with LEGO Universe for the longest time I wanted it so much but my parents wouldn't allow me until finally me and my brother's got it and it shut down a few months later. I remember some ads and classes like the Pirates being able to find treasure in the game.

Your parents had no rights to not allow you.

What if the real mmo was the friends we made along the way

I was starting to think nobody else had ever heard of or played Lego Universe because when it shut down, no one in my entire school had ever heard of it. I got gaslit into thinking that the game was all just a dream, that something that good could never actually exist.

"MMO companies straight up hate their fans" *Me thinks of that one indie MMO* "So he does care, cause hes not a company!"

Pirates of the Caribbean Online has been relaunched as a fan revival under the name "The Legend of Pirates Online" and I think the difference is they aren't making money off the property.

Now that’s Nintendo in a nutshell right there

Nintendo has copyrights to worry about. If they let too much slide for fans, they can effectively lose their copyrights and trademarks for those franchises, letting other big and scummy companies steal it.

@@Kahadi Other companies have let fans create fan projects to show their love for these series or politely request they shut down their projects. SEGA, Valva, capcom, Even Gamefreak has let numerous pokemon Rom hacks go up. But Nintendo shuts down everything, even an HD overhaul for a game they don’t make money off of. Meanwhile Resident Evil 4 has gotten an HD ultra project uploaded to steam and Capcom pinned that fan projects on their community page to show THEY were excited for it too.

something similar to the examples listed, Global Agenda Live made by Hi-Rez studios, really old, used to play it in the early 2010's before the servers closed forever =/

Bro's on Disney's, CIA, FBI and EA's watchlists for revealing such things

I swear mfs want us to stop playing their games at this point💀

RIP FusionFall...

All of these examples made my die inside

Lego universe broke me man, I invested so much time into it as a kid, countless memories and experiances.

This dude is parkouring backwards, what a Chad

As a 2K player I’m not surprised when I see other games do this, especially if the same game that got shut down has a new version coming out.

You are correct Jonny

RIP Club Penguin

I still have a wii disk

Im proud to be one of the 10 people on this planet to remember that gem of a lego game

This happened to a game called FusionFall that was made by Cartoon Network. I miss that game so much. There was a team that tried to remake it and do an updated form called FF Retro. Got hit by a cease and desist and now that's completely gone. In both iterations it was completely free and literally no money was made or lost. They just decided to hate their old fans

I think Jonny just got a Cease and Desist notice from a company that owned the MMO he just tried to revive

It also costs money to keep servers open and to maintain them.

Nentendo be like

Club Penguin specifically made sense, because once the official servers shut down, a lot of the fan hosted servers had problems with predatory behaviour towards kids, and a lack of proper moderation, and for a company like Disney, that could be a very huge potential problem for brand recognition.
