Gossip: Traditional Chinese Server of '千年战争' Announced Shutdown; Players Call it a 'Cash Grab'

Recently, the Traditional Chinese server of '千年战争' issued an official statement announcing its shutdown on December 25, 2022. The news sparked widespread discussion, with many players labeling it a classic case of a 'cash grab' project.

Community members pointed out that the server had actually ceased receiving updates half a year ago, making the shutdown inevitable. Some players ironically noted that the 'legit' traditional Chinese server ended up dying much faster than the original Japanese version.

Regarding the short lifespan, veteran observers hit the nail on the head: the operator never had any intention of long-term maintenance. Such proxy operators often skimp on localization, stop pushing content updates, and eventually just cut their losses. Fans commented with a mix of sarcasm and resignation: 'The bootlegs are gone, and now the original is gone too.'
