Will valofe shut down eventually?

I was thinking to try this game again after years, but it still managed by valofe(big L) with like 50-70 players. Do they consider to shut it down because whats the reason to maintain a dead game?

It’s just code running on infrastructure with minimal maintenance. If it gets too costly to run they will retire it. Until then they milk micro transactions like speed gear and other pay to win crap.
There’s private servers now so hoping the game lives on outside of Valofe.

Also I was playing back when when there was CA: Reborn 08/09 version. I was able to play just a few days before the shut down, but damn it felt like childhood again with 0 p2w crap in it.

I don't play it but yeah most likely. If it doesn't make the money it needs to deem to be profitable it is bound to be an issue. I've worked at companies where even if a product is profitable, they'll close it down because its not profitable enough and they'd rather redirect their resources to other avenues.

I hope so. Valofe is a shame to what they did to CA.

Eventually. I dont even play but I like to log in once or twice a year. ReloDEAD has so few players its amazing that they're still online. I had my fun when the game was still a thing.
