A game that only appeals to a tiny fragment of fanatics will not pull in enough subscriptions to justify ongoing development.

If the developers can't find a way to make this game fun for normal people, it will be pulled offline or allowed to languish with nary an update for years.
Exactly, the game is NOT fun. Logged out yesterday after doing the grand company quests and realizing there still is nothing to strive for and I've had enough till next patch.
