After reading this article, I've noticed that people who read this article think that this article is just telling you that the show is “cancelled.” However, there's more to it than that; they are saying & explaining that the fans of Wolf King should be hopeful that this show might get a renewal season or more. The author, Curtis Jobling said he wants to adapt all 6 books of the Wereworld series, it doesn't sound like he wants to give up on this show & neither should we. A week after Season 1 & 2 were released, the show's viewership was very successful around the world and ranked in the top 10 list, just 6 days after the release of both seasons. Also, most of the artists who worked on this show want it to be renewed as well. Lastly, the series has been nominated for a number of awards. Let's not give up on this show, rewatch the series, recommended for new viewers on Netflix, tell everyone what you love about this show, and make some fan art and tell the people of Netflix how much we love this series. Let's bring this show back together! Long Live the Wolf! 🐺👑

Square Enix Needs to Modernize Its IP, Former Exec Says

A former Square Enix executive claims the company has failed to connect iconic gaming franchises with a new generation of players.

Jacob Navok, former Director of Business at Square Enix, is discussing his belief that the company has failed to bring its popular IPs, such as Final Fantasy, to new generations by truly embracing the live-service model. In a long Twitter post, Navok admits that the brand actually understands live service as they’ve proven that with games like Final Fantasy 14 and Final Fantasy 11.

Still, he believes the popular JRPG franchise could do a better job of meeting young people where they’re at, for example, he hypothesizes the fun that a K-pop Demon Hunters x Final Fantasy collaboration could be.

As further examples of what he thinks Square Enix should do with the Final Fantasy brand, Navok discusses the success that Magic: The Gathering has had outside of its original medium. He also uses Kingdom Hearts as an example, saying that the series has shown how Final Fantasy lore could potentially mesh with other properties. He also says he thinks it would be interesting to see Final Fantasy 14 used as the technical basis for building a new free-to-play experience that continuously updates through modern collaborations.

Let's all point and laugh at the man who doesn't know anything about the company he works for

Maybe someone else has already asked you this question but what are your thoughts on Star Wars, Darth Vader and how Disney is handling this franchise?

Sorry, I'm too scared of the Fandom Menace to answer Star Wars asks. But if I can recommend the following article by a friend, I think it does a great job:
