A disturbingly large number of them do, actually. Not all,
obviously, but still a significant percentage. If you look at
"unique player logins in a month" it just about never reaches 100%,
nor does it match the churn rate (in other words, the people who do
not log in also don't all quit). I don't have monthly figures handy,
but you can have a game that shows 70% of the userbase logging in
every week, and not have anywhere near 30% of them quitting--in
fact, not even a tenth of them will quit.
