My concerns are as so:
NCSoft can sometimes be kinda harsh on its employees-- the recent layoffs for example. What happens when the new game that will make tons of money FER CERTAIN REALLY needs more devs? Will talent be siphoned away from NC^2? When the new game that will make tons of money FER CERTAIN REALLY turns out not to be quite as successful as the wined and dined had hoped, will said talent be laid off?
Remember that salesmen are always the last to go, even when they make the bad decisions that lead to the rank and file being laid off. NCSoft has a MUCH worse reputation than Cryptic for this.

Ok I know I am new here and this is my first post but I wholeheartedly agree with this statement. Particularly after what happened with the other NCSoft game I was playing: Auto Assault. That was a rather good game I admit to play and cool concept but apparently not cool enough for NCSoft to market it enough to get the subscribers it needed to keep it running so they claimed they had to shut it down this past August due to "Lack of Interest" after they had acquired it.
