The South Korean court has recently ruled that the 4 core developers of Lineage 3 and their current employer Bluehole Studio should compensate NCsoft by 2 billion Wons.
Fllowing the criminal ruling, this is a civial one. According to Bluehole Studio, they're not satisfied with the judgement, and will lodge Lineage2 Adena an appeal immediately.
Though at present, NCsoft wins the lawsuit no matter in the criminal judgement or in the civil one, it's still unknown if the MMORPG TERA under development by Bluehole Studio will be fatally affected.
