We had a short blip effect by the releases of UO, EQ, AC. Players
online dipped. But then recovered and rose. Basically, a game can't
offer everything. If you offer something unique, be it anything from a
game mechanic to a political system, to a social structure, then you
should be okay [until someone comes up with a better version of it :)
]. The more things you do right, the more resistant you are to these
effects.
