Sad day not only for them, but the gaming industry as a whole ... Guess no more DLC will be coming out ...

You never know. Hasn't the state issued them a load already? There is a possibility that the IP is sold for pennies on the dollar to cover any debt. On the other hand, if the state actually owns a piece of the IP then they may unload that for pennies.

With EA being the publisher, it could be that they buy the IP. Let's remember that there was a MMO in dev. before Amalur. EA is exactly the type of vulture that would pick this up. They could essentially ram-rod a F2P action MMO with RMT out with little investment up front.

Plans for the sequel included higher graphical quality, no loading screens between zones, expanded and improved combat animation, fewer branching quests and greater player-influence on the world.
