We were working on putting the two together, despite the rants of the traditional roleplayers. What happened is that I got lazy, Inverness got lazy, and the rest of the developers got lazy. Once the manager decided on a 40 day deadline, when we needed another 3-4 months at least, I kind of lost my drive. Why work on something when you know you can't finish it on time? To add to that, the manager wouldn't accept a player's offer to pay for 6 more months on the dev server.
It's not so much that it
can't be done. It's just that it's a tall order, and nobody wants to help... even if they're going to get
paid for it. Not a single person responded to that ad, where Omake offered to pay people to develop.
