Perpetual Entertainment somehow acquired an exclusive Star Trek MMO license for (just?) $22M. Curiously, the company then backburnered the Star Trek game and proceeded to build Gods & Heroes, an unrelated game that was the president's pet project.
The thinking, I was told, was that Gods & Heroes's subscription revenue would fund Star Trek Online's development. Gods & Heroes's development was funded by investors who thought they were getting a Star Trek MMO.
