A bit, but there is some truth in that. It's very hard to keep a fan base interested without anything tangible to try. Releasing alpha videos, sure lifted some frustration, created more problems than it solved. People got a nice sneak peek at the aspects included in alpha but then everyone started taking it seriously like it was the final product and nitpicked it to death. It scared a lot of the player base.

We all want to keep playing the game that we've been playing, and change scares people. I predict that there will be some measure of loss in the current fan base, but we'll gain new fans in return. The thing that scares me the most is people going to other games in this long long gap between 1.0 and 2.0.
