If you continue to dumb down the game, you will lose half your player base

If every person who cried "shame on X company" stuck to their guns and boycotted their products, they'd probably starve to death or live in a house with absolutely nothing in it. The business world is a shitty fucked up place and no amount of crying will ever fix it. Best to learn to live with it.

Or maybe the world would be a better place and the market would be forced to adapt. When people left WoW en masse, all of a sudden Blizzard was willing to allow cross-faction: a thing they said they would never do. How do you think labor laws happened?
