Thread: So Aegis is closing down

I'd seriously like that option, but I doubt it'll happen.

In any case, this probably doesn't bode well for games like Dragon Providence and Kamihime Project...

My account was at Lvl 238 with over 4 million gold, 42 current sacred crystals, 1507 demon crystals, and 485 moment crystals.
I have 209 valued units in my unit list and 26 daily and special gifts like valentines, and extra an extra Katie and more.

I found a site a month back that had allowed people to trade or sell various game accounts including a few of these MWA accounts.
I really enjoyed MWA but my work was making it so that I did not have time to spend on completing all the 4 star challenge story missions and the newest story mission updates. So I was considering either selling my account or trading it for some Ethereum or something, as I did not want all of my work to just go to waste....

My unit levels allow me to tackle all the G levels currently deployed and I had stockpiled resources in order to enjoy all the upcoming events.
I am pretty disappointed in the news, and I just can't see myself spending any more time on it with this announcement...

There's an update on Nutaku facebook. It reads:

"Hey Everyone,
We are deeply saddened that Aigis will be closing. We have not yet been told what day it will officially close on Nutaku, and we are waiting on the developer response.
We hear your questions and concerns, and we certainly understand the frustration. We do hope you understand that we are merely a platform that distributes these game, and game closures come from the developers and are entirely out of our hands. If it were up to us we'd keep Aigis forever!
We will update you when we find out more information!
-The Nutaku Team"

I don't know if it's true, but it's something.

It's a tough break for the site and the fans for sure. Aigis was controlled by the original dev in Japan as far as I know. It's hard to justify the numbers in the Western adult market compared to supporting the same game in Japan.

Japan's industry is so much more mature and is worth 100's of million compared to the West's pretty new adult market.

It seems the people on the ulmf forums couldnt handle the bad news and now the entire site is down.

Welp, Aigis was the only thing that kept me on this stupid website.

Time to bail.

I was only listening with one ear when people told me to migrate on DMM, but now the lesson is learned.

I hope Nutaku goes down with their shitty marketing choices. Bye.

Ray: Hold your horses, there's been some talk that DMM is actually the one that pulled the plug. Personally, if this is true, I wouldn't want to throw any business their way.

Personally, I think I'll continue to log in, but just for rewards and gifts, go on a roll spree, and try to get the scenes before it all ends. Then I'll throw investment into FGO. Gotta get that gatcha itch somehow.

wow, thats really fucking stupid... i dont think it performed that bad but it probably didnt pull enough cash for them... still fuck this!

im really glad that i started on both pages. but they wont see any money whatsoever...

fk em =)

obviously i pull Black Matsuri on the last roll =)

I like how Nutaku is once again going back to the "We didn't have anything to do with it it's the devs that decided this" excuse.

Pretending as if they didn't have a history of mismanaging DMM games with horrible censorship and gacha handling that painted them in a bad light to DMM devs in the first place. Let's not forget Aigis itself has had a horrible troubling history since the beginning with censorship and slow as hell updates.

They just finally decided it wasn't worth all the trouble. DMM doesn't need Nutaku, and now it especially never will. Nutaku themselves have already decided that DMM games aren't worth the trouble either and would much rather deal with native western devs and shitty eroge translations like the gaijin they are.
