The bigger issue is people who pay have actual expectations the team is going to have to deliver on. Even a pay for play EA (again, Pantheon did this same shit). They are going to have to get roadmaps out and actually deliver on them in the timeframes they lay out. Fail to deliver? Goodbye subs. Fail to communicate? Goodbye subs. Fail to address the glaring problems you made with bad design decisions? Goodbye subs.

I hope they can pull it off, because I like having fun MMOs to play. But I am not going to get into this until it has proven itself. The hype train with no follow through is a tiresome pattern in this industry.

Keep in mind that whatever their sub count is for EA launch is likely as high as it ever gets. Very, very few MMOs grow their player base after launch, especially in 2026.

i agree with these takes...

EA launch on an MMO is a dumb idea... i get they need money, but for any other reason its dumb. because you will have the hard core people burn out before they even get relevant content out to them... so they'll come back periodically but will not be captured. and if that roadmap doesnt deliver then even worse. imagine being a newb when the game really launches; everyonw who plays mmo's know its retarded to start an mmo year after everyone been grinding their plat.

its just like eq legends... hard core people are done, and EQL is sprinkling in lower end content, useless for player retention...
