Hell hath no Fury, neither does anyone else now

We're not exactly sure who was running Fury, as developer Auran shut down late last year after the game failed to catch on. Obviously, we know this comes as a shock to the handful out there still playing Fury, but there's whole worlds of MMO titles out there to explore. We know it's hard, but it's best to accept it and move on.

They should've called the game Furry and made every raid boss some sort of marmot.
That shit would've sold like hotcakes.

I would've bought four.

Nice marmot!

Oh noooooooooo!
Wait - never played it.

*Played* it? I've never even *heard* of it!

I remember back in the day when MMOs were simply MUDs.

Don't people always find a way to keep games alive by private servers? :P

When this sort of thing eventually happens to an MMO, the devs should just release the hosting tools to the public.

and the source code! That way, you know, it doesn't go to waste...or something >=)

Sounds like a severe misunderstanding for the need of a business plan.

I've played it at PAX the last few years, and while it never drew me in it's still sad to see a company be so enthusiastic about a product only to have it not catch on. The people demoing the game were always really pumped about it.
Best of luck in the future guys. :\

wasn't this game trash that gamecock published...

I had good hopes for Fury; too bad it ended up sucking. They had some very serious balance issues; that's the problem with small companies: sometimes you have a good concept, but tuning the small nicks and crannies can be difficult.

So we now can expect a few hundred "private" servers within the year :)

Our thoughts are with those who have lost avatars.

Whats Fury? Isn't it a talent tree for Warriors in World of Warcraft?
Wubbytoes @ Aug 5th 2008 9:45PM
Wow, this was a game that I completely forgot existed.

Anyone know if the game was any good?
It got ZERO marketing, so I'm not surprised no-one heard of it.
Never heard it mentioned on any game blogs, etc..
