For How Long Can World of Warcraft Dominate
We've heard it all before 4story Luna, MMORPG "X" will be the "WoW killer." Warhammer, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars (Galaxies) are just some of the big names that have failed to live up to this billing, which reminds us just how dominate Blizzard's World of Warcraft has become.
However, as the game approaches its 5 year anniversary, we're also reminded that nothing lasts forever.
So, exactly how long can Blizzard keep subscribers interested in the game?
To avoid falling into the trap of "predicting" WoW's downfall, let me first say that the only company or game that will be able to bring about the demise of WoW will be Blizzard and the games they generate themselves.
But, due to their handling of the game, Blizzard must be prepared to lose a substantial chunk of their hardcore player base.
