So tell them what "could be" is.

Don't speak in broad fanciful strokes such as "millions for years to come". Those days are gone. Gaming and players have both changed greatly in the decade plus since WoW was able to reach 12 million concurrent subscribers.

Speak in detail. Speak about the type of content you think that players want. Speak about what should be kept, what should be discarded and what should be added.

Speak about how much time per week you think players would be willing and able to invest in a single game.

And then don't be shocked when it turns out your "could be" isn't what other players actually want.
