I'm wishing Unmasked Games a bright future and good luck with Project Rustbound.

And to those few who celebrate this outcome because the game allows a bit more colors in its settings:

Still, I'd ask anyone reading this to be civil and not to harass anyone involved in this situation about this.

In general I noticed the tendency that more and more Lego fan content gets into conflict with Lego's legal department, which is sad to see.

The Lego community thrives like no other on creativity and community activity. This backwards trend is thus even more upsetting.

What I have also seen, are a wide range of reactions, from petitions, to announcements of boycots and some folks cussing violently at The Lego Group.

The relationship between TLG and the Bionicle fandom has been rough for years now. And it looks like it only goes worse from here.

TLG as a rights owner is allowed to act the way they did. Still, it is irriating to see this change of attitude after almost a decade of the project's existence.

I think most people in the community have seen this by now. BIONICLE: Masks of Power has been cancled. A really big bummer to the fandom and most of all, Unmasked Games, whospent years of effort into this project.

There's been some errant speculation that Lego is planning to do something with Bionicle and they didn't want MoP stealing any of their oxygen. I personally think that's extremely unlikely but I can understand why someone would come to that conclusion because it makes more surface-level sense...

feeling a lot of things rn about all of this, confusion is def the top one. all this was so sudden, just outta nowhere Lego of ALL COMPANIES pulls of a Nintendo. Like, why the sudden shift in tone???
So much for a company that once breathed creativity among it's fans

it's an absolute shame to hear about Masks of Power, the Bionicle fan game that has now been shutdown suddenly. Lego seems to have a much different stance on fan projects now, closer to how Nintendo does things (which is shit). Has me incredibly worried for future and current fan projects

Personally I don't believe that to be the case either, but even if they were to make a bionicle reboot or whatever it could be, I feel like this is just self sabotaging.
I mean having the first act of such a reboot be "kill off the most popular love letter" immediately sours the mood.

Regardless of use. 20 years is long enough for them to have exclusive rights. After that it should be open season IMO

Honestly I think it should be like, 20 years after the copyright was first issued. Whatever Lego did later, 2020 is plenty late enough for Bionicle to become PD

Lego shuts down open-world fan game Bionicle: Masks of Power after eight years in development

The team behind the project is rebranding as a new studio, and plans to use its experience in creating an original game of its own #Lego #Bionicle

I, for one, will never buy a product from Lego again. There are so many passionate Bionicle fans out there that have made their own ways to keep the brand alive. Between the takedown of this game and the takedown of the turaga files, I simply can't support a company that hates their fans this much.

I swear, every Bionicle fan project is cursed, and Lego taking this game out back like old yeller is the final nail in the coffin for this battered and mismanaged ip

“bionicle fans, please don't abandon the team.”

The sad thing is, I think this request will fall on deaf ears. I can’t help but remember Sokoda’s project which got 10k supporters on Ideas, but couldn’t get 3k people to buy the thing.

This is outrageous, how dare Lego change their minds about this. I was super excited for this game, sometimes I feel like how are we supposed to keep this Bionicle community alive lately? It feels almost impossible.
