Camelot Unchained’s Mark Jacobs expressed sympathy in his Friday newsletter:
Our hearts go out to all the people of France, as well as everybody else who was/is in the area. To our Backers, I say with all sincerity, I hope and pray that all of you and your loved ones, as well as all those affected by this tragedy, are and remain safe through what will be a terribly dark night for the city of Paris, France, and all those people in the world who abhor the death of innocents, no matter where they reside.
I know we have quite a lot of French readers, so please let everyone know if you’re safe. We are overwhelmed with sympathy for everyone affected by the bombings in Paris, Lebanon, and Iraq. If you know of other MMOs offering an online haven or gathering this weekend, speak up.
With thanks to Anthony, Sargonnax, Kurogane335, and Tank.
