People played (and still play) FFXI religiously almost to the very end (until SE ruined it), People leave Wow every day for other games but once they find they SUCK just as bad they feel they might as well go back to Wow where they already have time invested. The route this game is taking will end up being one of those crappy games that fail miserably to wow (Like AoC).. and I bet people will STILL be playing FFXI (which started before AoC and is still in play even though AoC is now FTP (if it is even running anymore)).

What you do not understand is that more people will play a game when they can actually log on and play the game in the time they have to play.

When most of their time will be spent traveling in order to be able to play the game, that is when fewer people will want to play because they will not have the time left to play the game - it was all spent on traveling.
