I think its a catch 22 for SOE because they're stuck with having the product on their lineup regardless.
SOE has the money and resources to spent 18 months on a game ripping out the Vision(tm)-type grindtastic suck and remoulding it into something decent (see: EQ2). I very much doubt Sigil has the same.

And hey - at least SOE only funded about a year of development. Poor old Microsoft got suckered into paying for four.

30K characters, not 30K subscribers. How many people do you know that don't have at least one alt?
