Short version of this head-in-the-sand analysis of why WAR cratered:
1. Lich King
2. Gold farmers
3. Cheaters (in a MMO?)
4. Lich King

Not one mention of the defective game design that hinged everything on a population base the game never had.

Still don't understand the logic behind releasing a game so close to LK. Or releasing a fantasy orcs/elves type mmo in a market dominated by WoW
