Because games like that are attention-grabbing which leads to more potential of winning paying customers. Shame they aren't very good at keeping projects going for more than 5 minutes.

And you just know they love their plausible deniability.

It's amazing what having the potential of ownership ripped away can do.

Which means around 50 didn't want to work for Krafton or already found jobs. Good for them.

Both make for such a powerful combo, why would you pick just one?

As hinted at in the title, assuming the technology/means existed that could absorb energy fast enough, would it be possible to stop a star from going supernova, effectively "calming" it?

This is for a novel (not exactly a sci-fi one) but I'd like to keep in the realms of "technically possible".

Edit. Thank you to everyone for providing answers and specific thanks to @[email protected] @[email protected] and @[email protected] for the for the further reading/watching materials that have inspired a narrative solution that is kinda hand-wave-y but should be good enough to hold up to scrutiny until the moment someone with a PhD (or good enough knowledge) takes a closer look at a fictional word with a soft magic system and smashes the big ol' BS button which I think is about as much as fantasy novel writer can ask for.
