Somehow this doesnt surprise me. I cant imagine why they thought the extremely outdated subscription model was going to work all that long. From what I hear, alot of players have already left and the population is very low. The game isnt doing well at all, and could still very well end up going down the drain entirely.
Doesnt help that, if I recall correctly, the game ended up being a bit generic. At least, from what I've seen, anyway.
But who knows, this switch could end up reversing things. I've considered trying the game before myself, but... ehhh.... I dunno, I havent seen anything in it to really catch my attention.
