NCSoft’s PC Games Struggle as Lineage Mobile Generates More Revenue Than Their All PC Games Combined

NCSoft's revenues have sharply declined since peaking in 2022, with 2024 revenues falling below 2017 levels. The company's stock price has decreased by 71% over the past five years. The transition from PC gaming to mobile platforms initially increased revenues, but profitability has suffered due to high platform fees from Apple and Google. NCSoft's legacy MMOs, like Lineage and Lineage 2, avoid these fees. Currently, Lineage M generates more revenue than all of NCSoft's PC games combined, and in 2022, Lineage W brought in nearly three times the revenue of the entire PC game portfolio. However, revenue from Lineage W has also declined. The player base for Throne and Liberty has decreased rapidly, raising concerns about its long-term viability. The upcoming release of Aion 2 is expected in the latter half of 2025, but expectations for success are cautious.

Remember Bricopacks? They could transform Windows XP into something special

Windows XP was known for its user-friendly interface and performance, leading to a community-driven desire for customization. Notable contributions included BricoPacks, which were comprehensive suites of software and tweaks that enhanced the operating system. These packs provided features such as a sleek dock for applications, revamped window styling and cursors, new wallpapers and taskbar designs, and customizable start menus. Customizing Windows XP required technical skills and experimentation, supported by active forums. Today, customization options remain available for Windows, and Bricopacks can still be downloaded for use with Windows XP virtual machines.
