Will you be back?

[finiteHP]

Barring problems in real life, I will be back no matter how long.

[Nero]

Speaking objectively, what is the likelihood you will be back in ARR?

100%

How much of a factor is the downtime going to play?

Does not matter to me.

I'm expecting to loose at least 30% of my friends on Excal to this transitional phase.

And gain 30% from the new Playerbase joining the Game and the new Playerbase from PS3.

I'll be back for certain. I know a lot of hardcore players who will be returning.

The promise of 2.0 is so strong that most people are just painfully waiting. The real worry at this point is how they keep people interested.

I'll be honest. While I don't usually allow myself to be swooned by CGI because it's normally not indicative of gameplay, the End of an Era trailer has solidified my interest, and no matter what games come out between now and then, I WILL return, as I'm sure many others will.

I love lore, but am ultimately very hard to impress or excite. Even with my jaded sensibilities, I got pretty inspired by that trailer, so I know what you mean. I'm interested to see where they go with the momentum they've built up if nothing else.

[ReptarSwag]

Of course, it's a complete reboot.

[Royze]

I agree with both Undrentide and Dannythm. Momentum and communication is key. Without it they won't loose everyone, but they will loose some, and gain none.
