Cant see much changing?

 

Ill go to Jagex HQ in Cambridge if i have too lol

M&A is my line of work although not in mining or gaming sector. Appears the deal  is a non exclusive non binding offer and hasn't been agreed on by Jagex.

 

Smells like a Chinese attempt to money launder to me. But they are taking council from a large us law firm so could be a legit takeover but I don't see why they would do it.

 

However if they do follow through it might be good for Jagex because I doubt Shandon will be as hands on as the current investors.

Yeah with their current avenues of interest I doubt they'll be looking to make fundamental changes; seems such an odd investment 

 

Could give OSRS more freedom!
