Paradox Interactive (the Crusader Kings people, not the Conan/Mutant Chronicles ones) buy the White Wolf properties [Merged x10]

Where are you seeing these people?

Also, why? I mean, there's reasons to hate other editions, but come on, Onyx Path does print out classic material for the crowd who wants it. Material that otherwise wouldn't exist.

Other forums. I don't want to pick a cross-forum fight, though. Just kind of commenting.

I think the thing I find most strange about this are the people who seem to be drooling over the prospect of Onyx Path possibly losing the WW licenses, and seeing the Paradox purchase as a validation of their hatred for nWoD.

Okay I've only seen a few of those, but they're really not helping.

People spend a million or more dollars and then fires everyone all the time. Mostly depending on how valuable they judge the brand or resources the company they took over has. Easier just to fill things out with your own people.

Sure that's true, but at the same time I have to consider it a waste of assets. There's people that have been working these IPs for half a decade or (much) more that are with Onyx Path and have been knocking it out of the park. Even in my admittedly pessimistic opinion of this purchase I have to say it'd be stupid of Paradox to just axe everything that's been going on

To be fair that is very forget able and only possesses the books listed above. It's minor in comparison to the rest of the setting
