If City of got picked up by another Publisher...

Who would you want it to be, why, and how do you think it would go?

My first thought might be seeing what Paragon's old staff could do if given the limitless resources from Valve... Then I can just see us getting hats as main costume pieces... Hats everywhere and updates more sporadic than Pinnacle's Uptime.

Hey, how about Electronic Arts picking up City of? I mean, Mass Effect 3's ending was Bioware's decision, not theirs, so maybe that could work out? Though we might end up with extremely mediocre updates being pushed out every month and a sequel game each year.

I would prefer a NorCal publisher due to the devs having always been here. That's Zynga, Sega, EA as the big ones. Out of those I'd prefer it to be Sega. Frankly I don't care if everything is slathered in ads and facebook though if it means keeping the game alive.

Out of those three, I'd be with Sega as well. Zynga would probably add some kind of fatigue system that required you to buy Paragon tokens to play for a hour.

EA would probably try to turn it into the the MMO equivalent of North Face, then jack up the prices because reasonable prices are a sign of desperation.

Still, I'd be up for anyone if it meant the devs could keep their jobs, and we could keep our game.
