games can and will be badly made and they WILL fail just like the business world throwing money at the problem will not fix it , i have quoted something that really really stood out to me.

the new generation is coming around the conour time to get your act together your playbase is fed up of the endless promises you have consistently failed to deliver on
I managed to play it up and until lvl 22 from launch day, i compare my new MMO's to much with Everquest and that never ends well when it took me 1.5 real years to accomplish an EPIC quest in EQ, when you finally hold those Epic weapons that also lasted me for the next 3 years, the feel was awesome, in these new MMO's EPIC items get shoved down your throat like candy are really a whole of bullcrap.
Played UO for 2 years
Played EQ for 5 years
Played EQ 2 for 5 years
The longest i played any other MMO sits at a record of 8 months and that was Rift and i played pretty much all of them, even Biowares Star Wars didnt last 2 months after i capped out at lvl 50 with full Raid Epic gear, hell i played SOE's Star Wars longer then that.
I got a whole heap of hopes for EQ Next, but we all know they will have dumbed it down for this generations kids, no more corpse recoveries that made you miss a days work, because your corpse decays in 24 hours and you all wiped in a raid zone unable to get in, no more hardcore raids that started at 2 am trough 8 am because there were no euro servers.
No more Camp spots where you sat down and actually chatted with people inside an open dungeon all for hours on end, eventually wiping because the puller pulled 1 mob too much, this stuff is all replaced with crap like press as much buttons as you can and lets finish this instance in under 20 minutes guys, so we can run another 15 of these today!
Oh gasp we pulled 20 Mobs, no worries my purple gear i got from wallmart will get me trough this.
MMO's were allot better when there were just 2 of them around.
<-i feel old now...
