yeah, I think it’s more to do with them licensing IP’s from other companies who already make tabletop games, and that’s causing these sudden license issues unfortunately 🙁

when it’s a license that transfers it from another medium to a tabletop game, it seems to be less problematic to retain the license from what I’ve observed 🙂 for instance they’ve been publishing Game Of Thrones games for over 16 years without issue 🙂 well before it became this popular as a franchise 🙂

luckily they still own all the Android settings and characters, so they can still explore games that involve running the net, it’s only the mechanics of Netrunner they licensed from WOTC 🙂 so there’s still hope they can make something similar 🙂
