    This is so bizarre to me, from a business perspective. Of course, you can't sustain an MMO with new players alone. An expansion always has to have a decent amount of late-game / endgame content for the existing community. But an expansion release also always draws in new players, yet SE will retain almost none of them if the beginning of the game isn't any good. Now would be the perfect time to finally work on that overhaul they promised almost a year ago.

    This. Could not have put it better. Really was hoping for a shakeup in 5.0, but looks like no dice and no meaningful influx of new players.
