Tabula Rasa closing Feb. 28th

To the Tabula Rasa Community,

Last November we launched what we hoped would be a ground breaking sci-fi MMO. In many ways, we think we've achieved that goal. Tabula Rasa has some unique features that make it fun and very different from every other MMO out there. Unfortunately, the fact is that the game hasn't performed as expected. The development team has worked hard to improve the game since launch, but the game never achieved the player population we hoped for.

So it is with regret that we must announce that Tabula Rasa will end live service on February 28, 2009.

Before we end the service, we'll make Tabula Rasa servers free to play starting on January 10, 2009.

We can assure you that through the next couple of months we'll be doing some really fun things in Tabula Rasa, and we plan to make staying on a little longer worth your while. For more details about what we are doing for Tabula Rasa players, please click here.

Stay tuned for more information. We thank you for your loyal support of the game and encourage you to take us up on the benefits we're offering Tabula Rasa players.

The Tabula Rasa Team

Its is a well made MMO but that's the problems it's only a well made MMO not a great one. It just couldn't compete with better made ones. If this was a free game set up like Guild Wars (buy the game play for free) it probably wouldn't be closing right now.

Tabula Rasa should go free now instead of waiting until next year.

They want to get the last whole month before they shut down (Decembers) monthly fees.

I guess they are doing that for people who have already paid so they dont have to issue refunds.
