Hello everyone. I would like to present to you.
The people that spent an alleged 300 million dollars on this game, neglected any game that was going to be released other than their sports branch and established franchises in favour of this one, issued a rabid marketing campaign and now not even a single year after it's release, are crawling back into their cave out of shame for thinking a subscription MMO can survive in this day and age.
The reason WoW can survive is because of dependency, it's users depend on it for social interaction and their mental investment. You don't have that. You can never have that because you are living in 2012, a recession era where people are desperately looking for work, stealing and dealing if they can't find any work and where most adolescents and young adults who generally play such games no longer have the time nor money to invest to become dependant on your game.
I don't think EA's dreams of power and star wars glory lasted for longer than 6 months. It is still a very good single player game I will play entirely solo when it does go FTP. So thank you EA I will enjoy what I would have enjoyed had you not made this an MMO. You on the other hand, won't get any money, because it is an MMO that failed.
