From a marketing point of view:
Different MMO's appeal to different people
there are the easy-mode jump around ones like WoW
story rich ones
Cute-based ones
serious + story heavy ones
etc

I want to know what this game will feel like in a year so both I and others will know if its the game for us.

What if they changed the entire game to copy hello kitty and made the game pink? Would you keep playing ?
What if they got rid of levels and equipment and made it easy to get everything, would you still think its the mmo for you?

People deserve to know what they are waiting for. Will it be an FFXI-2? Or will it go in a much different direction? Will it become pvp heavy? Raid heavy? will there be more fantasy? More zones? Stronger story?

I want to know what strengths this game will -eventually- have and what will -eventually- set it apart from others.

And i think a lot of other people want to know that as well.
You deserve to know when you start paying for it. Otherwise you don't really deserve anything. You can wait until they announce their "vision" or until they start charging. When they start charging then you'll have the right to "deserve to know".

You shouldn't be forced to pay into something you might not want to invest in and that's why we aren't paying now.
