Pantheon: Rise Of The Fallen Development Slowing Down As The Devs Find Investors

April 18, 2014 by Ryan Parreno

It’s far from the end of the world for this throwback team MMO, but that world is stalling for now.

Do you remember the Pantheon: Rise of The Fallen Kickstarter from the start of the year? Unfortunately, that effort came up short, and developers Visionary Realms have struggled with funding since. Today, they have announced that development will now be slowing down now that they have run out of initial funding, from their second crowdfund as well as out of their own pockets.

As a quick review, Pantheon is the brainchild of Brian Mcquaid, and was initially pitched as a return to the Everquest MMOs of the late 90’s and early 2000’s. It was a very ambitious, if scalable, project, with funding pegged to as much as $ 6.3 million.

After their Kickstarter failed, Visionary decided to go on their own with a crowdfund campaign on their own site. However, the attention they generated from that Kickstarter was presumably enough that they have picked up investor interest.

So, to be clear, this is not the end of the road. However, Visionary is stuck between a rock and a hard place. They have a game plan in place to develop the game and make it a success. Yes, that includes a business plan. However, they are just about to pitch their project to investors and don’t have the money quite yet.

For the moment, development on Pantheon will slow down. It won’t completely end, but they would be doing more if they had more money on hand. Let’s wish the boys and girls at Visionary the best of luck as they find an angel investor. After all, if it happened to JetGetters, it could happen to them.
