17 of my guild started this game 3 weeks ago. Fewer and fewer have been logging in lately, and this has been the main reason why. We're now at the point where it's only me still logging in, and I sure won't be here after the first month.

So it doesn't really matter what they do now, the game is done as far as I'm concerned. But hopefully future MMOs will learn from this - it doesn't matter how much polish and fancy cutscenes a game has, if basic combat mechanics don't work because of crappy server coding you've got no chance.
