In the end, this is the issue. To pay for the large development investment required, such a shard must either attract new players, attract more returning players, or retain players longer.
I know that players that did like the old ways would argue that this is indeed the case. But a steely eyed producer must decide what the odds are that this is truly the case before funding such a project and I believe that their glasses are a bit less rose colored.
