They basically threw up a big middle finger to all of their customers with this last quarterly report and admitted that, "We didn't lose that much money because we offset our expected losses with price increases and in game transactions to make up for said losses." They flat out admitted they're going to gouge the customers they have because they can and they can't be bothered to care if we even know anymore.
They're going to deliver sub par content until they see an actual decrease in finances, it's as simple as that. They used to be able to churn out extremely more content, with a smaller budget, and a much smaller team. There is simply no excuse besides greed that we're seeing such poor performance from them.
