Gods and Heroes Eulogy

Gods and Heroes: Rome Rising is no more:

(Posted on behalf of Perpetual co-founder and executive producer of G&H, Chris McKibbin)

Loyal and faithful community members and Beta testers, thank you for your support help, and understanding during the Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising development process.


The development team established some very lofty and ambitious goals when the initial work was started on Gods & Heroes . Recently we took a step back to evaluate the competitive landscape, the game's current state, and the overall goals for our organization. And while we are truly proud of and pleased with what we have created in Gods & Heroes , we also realize that achieving the level of quality and polish that we are committed to will take a significant investment.



The Perpetual team is faced with a unique challenge of simultaneously developing both Gods & Heroes and Star Trek Online in addition to growing our Online Game Platform business. After assessing all of Perpetual's opportunities, we have made the decision to put the development of Gods & Heroes on indefinite hold.



I want to express my overwhelming gratitude to the community, engineers, designers, artists, animators, and the game services team for the support and effort that has gone into Gods & Heroes .



Moving forward, we're shifting our collective focus, resources and development efforts to Perpetual's Platform Services division and Star Trek Online , thereby ensuring that the game lives up to the high level of expectation set by the dedicated Star Trek fan base.



Again, I would personally like to thank all of the Gods & Heroes supporters who have been with us from the beginning. Hopefully, your continued support will be as valuable to our future endeavors as it was with Gods & Heroes ..



Vade in pace,
Chris McKibbin

I know a guy named Chris McKibbin, but i seriously doubt it's the same person.

but what if it is???

beta tested this, it was pretty cool but just didnt offer enough. It was a smart move on thier part. I told them I uninstalled it 3 weeks ago and that pretty much sealed their decision about the game.

Sorry to let you guys down, but once the Pox speaks... shit happens.

Then we wipe the leftover shit off our asses and flush.
