There is a reason why history has been repeating pretty darn hard this last decade.
This actually misses the point. MMO's that have "died" haven't done so because of "fanboys pushing people out." They've generally died because of decisions that radically change what the game is about and turns off the majority of its audience (see WoW going from a casual-focused MMO to an esports-centered one), which is exactly what would happen here if some of the perpetually ultra-negative drones got their way. When you see comments like "I wish they'd get rid of the scions, but they won't because they're extremely popular", that's exactly it. This game has a huge, devoted audience right now and a small number of bitter people on the forums who can't accept that the world doesn't revolve around what they personally want the game to be. The forums were pleasant for a while with a couple of the perpetual naysayers apparently taking their leave; sadly, a couple new ones have now popped up and we're back to this.
