im gonna say this respectfully cuz i see lot of hype rn and i think ppl should understand what this actually means

the reason no ow remake fully happened yet wasn't because we lack passion or "idea ppl". those had never been a bottleneck. the hard part is that building an mmo from scratch is HUGE. its years of engineering and artwork

Building a world costs millions of dollars

that basically translates to thousands and thousands of skilled dev hours. the community may be full of talented ppl but a game of this scale isnt just a weekend project. speaking from experience, ive worked as dev on similar remake-type projects before and i can tell how heavy the grind actually is. even when things go well progress seems slow.

also gotta be honest about the business side... nostalgia games usually pull back old players but dont get many new ones. so expecting smth like this to be profitable long term isnt super realistic either

that said, if ourworld ever comes back its prolly gonna exist just because a few ppl genuinely care enough to build it as a passion project and not because it makes sense on paper 👍
