What implications does this have for everybody's favorite MMO in space (besides Eve)? I like that they still bandy about that loss of 400k subscribers as if by now it isn't much, much worse. I still love this game, though!

How dumbed down do games have to get? I mean seriously, I've played a ton of MMOs, and WoW and SWTOR are 2 of the easiest most dumbed down ones. What's wrong with people? This isn't directed at you sajmanpeetee. I agree with you, and think everything you said is true. I'm just saying it's very sad that it is true.

Oh you have to love this idiocy Quote: "For SWTOR to fail makes Riccitiello's entire strategy look dodgy to investors who were already deeply concerned by the slow pace of progress" I wouldn't call being the number two Subscriber based MMO a failure also all this tells us is any problems that TOR now has can be blamed on impatient money grubbing Know nothings that wanted to make quick return on their investment
No one hates Star Wars as much as "Star Wars fans"

It really has no affect what so ever on us the gamers.

Don't they know that TOR is the fastest growing MMO of all time. Rome wasn't built in a day, give it time it's been less than 6 months.

I admire your dedication to it but you have to face that there is no way in hell they will ever bring back SWG or make a new Star Wars game similar to SWG. SWG had a much worse launch then SWTOR had. The two launches don't even come close to each other.

First of all: Released 12/20/11 it's been -seven- months. Second of all: Losing 400k subscribers as of May (honestly likely more now) is not 'growing' unless I have been taught the wrong definition. Additionally being forced to condense nearly a hundred servers into 10 or so is also not a sign of growth. I am not trying to be a jerk, but please know your facts before you spout this sort of nonsense.
