When VU in 2005 agreed with POS to let them continue under a fan license, the C&D was revoked and procedures were started to construct said fan license. It turns out communication errors affected the results of these procedures negatively.

If you really, really want to blame people, both VU and POS messed up to some degree but I find it very difficult to believe either party did so on purpose.



I didn't either. $25,000 is what I expected a license to cost, not a franchise. Seeing that owning a franchise allows you to make money off the sales of existing games, license it out to third parties and start an unlimited amount of projects based on the IP, I expected a franchise that is as well-known as KQ to be at least a million dollar or so. But I could have been mistaken.

Yea, communication errors indeed!
Regardless what VU and Activision done, at least they're trying making things right!

Regarding franchise, I did recalled reading something about 1 million but I don't exactly remember where.
