The Chinese server has been running strong for longer than ours has, so hopefully if the chips fall down the right way we won't need to worry about anything.

You should still have plenty of time, and as Dosu said before me, the original version of this game is still up and strong. Assuming things continue this way, we've got an extremely long time.

In terms of lore, the China server is almost done since they have characters right near the end of the series. That is why they had to add filler characters and added more game content to continue. Our server should be fine for at least 1 year for sure. I'm not sure about 2 years from now since Oasis loves to add content earlier than expected.

I would not worry, there are games like this that have been around along time that still aren't completely dead. For example bleach online has a very large amount of servers and the game is not 100% dead-(although sadly most servers are dead), there are still many servers that are still kicking and are very active. Even if your server dies someday that does not me*l of them will and there is a large amount of activities that you can do in this game that are cross server. Until then don't worry and good luck with the second hokage!

As long as the persons or peoples behind this game manages their game good, there's nothing to worry about .. If the decisions, implementations and regulations of this game's developers and administrators stays in the right track, this game will be available for years .. Just like what happened to the MMORPG i'm playing before and that's the only online game i played for years .. I played that game since its first months of release here in our country and played all the way till the management becomes too greedy and put up all items for sale with the use of buying prepaid cards for points .. The economy falls slowly and together with it, the game itself falls slowly till they close it, but this past year, they manage to bring back the game online but, the people don't trust it like they used to be before and from millions of players, now it only have 4 digit number of players ..
