Hey guys, just checking in. I have been swamped with work last month - we are migrating over 150 sites to new software and new servers, and the network was a total f'ing mess and making the switch is chaos. Last 4 weeks we have been slowly moving them on to the new servers and software and its been draining 10-12 hour days of non-stop fire fighting.

But I WILL be back around and writing stories here soon.

Issue wasnt with money or anything, was a server change and when they did this they altered the database somehow, database was repaired and it was back to working, it seems.

So.... apparently.... Disney has DUMPED LucasArts.... staff... on-going projects... "1313"... games... the whole shebang.

This is not an April Fool's Drill.

Disney will now license out Star Wars projects and whoever the developer is will get to slap a LucasArts label on it and call it a day.

For 1313 alone that's bad news, but overall probably good.  With the brand opened up to external parties now instead of having to work for LucasArts to get creative input, while there may be in whole a deluge of crappy content, there will always be gems in the rough.  More rough more gems.

Apparently LucasArts staff have been experiencing constant personnel shuffling anyways so there's no golden brainchild lost in the dismissals.


In similar news/know, Dark Horse's license of Star Wars comic book publishing is up around end of the year.  Disney owns Marvel.  Now that Disney owns Marvel AND Star Wars, Star Wars comic books are almost positively going to return to being published under Marvel (as the original 70s comic books were).  Not necessarily bad news for anyone who likes SW Dark Horse work, because a lot of those same creative minds that worked on Dark Horse SW already do work for Marvel as well (i.e. Brian Wood, Alex Ross).  But bad news for Dark Horse.
