Like I've said before.
It won't even matter if there's only one subscriber. Square is going to work on this game till 2.0 and beyond regardless of how much they make from it this year or how few people play it.

A lack of subscribers isn't going to kill this game. Especially when they already went over a full year without anything more than donations for the quake.

The only thing that could kill the game at this point would be if Square itself went under. It can't be a sinking ship unless the ship can sink. All this talk of doom and gloom can't really go anywhere sense the game could have no subscribers and it will still develop into 2.0. Square has invested far too much to give up on it now.

1,000.
