How do you know though? How do you know they'll lose so many old players? Those who are left playing are to a degree, dedicated players. Even those who have complaints, if you still play you're pretty dedicated. So what would drive those players away? Eververse growing to the point where the rest of the game has taken a back seat again would probably do it but we don't know how it's going to turn out yet. People are complaining about content be g left behind as time goes on as if that's a bad thing when it's not. You either play or you don't, your choice. If you don't play, why complain that you can't play old content later? It no longer matters and if you wanted to play, you should have kept up. The games world evolving as time moves on is a good thing, it means our actions impact things for a change.
