It's because people wants to play a SW oriented MMORPG? nothing wrong with that.
For all the internet hate on WoW, it's still the best MMO that none other have manage to surpass yet.

Without actually active sub numbers, no one can really tell if the game is viable or not. From what i heard, they need 500k sub to break even and currently there's too many servers for the amount of players ingame leading to a lot of ghost towns.

Anyway, WoW took a few years before it became the juggernaut that it is today. If Bioware kept producing contents and refining the gameplay, it might someday achieve the level of success Blizzard enjoyed.

Personally, i didnt like the game but they did manage to get 1.7m (?) sub within a short time which is quite an achievement by itself. Now they just have to retain enough subs to keep EA from pulling the plug prematurely while continue to expand their game.
