After all, people have bought it, they aren't going to buy it a second, third or fourth time, and until it comes out and gets reviewed, a lot of people will be saving their money. So, of course, the ranking will fall, because to keep a high ranking they would need to constantly be selling the same amount. Which is impossible, since eventually, you just run out of people.Then they grow as people. I bet there were a lot of people frustrated that their Wood Elf Archer couldn't do everything they saw Legolas do in the movie.Sure, some people might quit and call the game stupid and dumb, and never pick it up again. Those people were never going to stay on, because they expected something impossible. Most people will recognize that you can't perfectly imitate what a different group of people has pulled off. You aren't those people. This game isn't the Lord of the Rings movie. So, we might get a flood of people asking "why didn't this work, why wasn't it like I imagined" and we, as more expeirenced members of the community, should gently guide them into realizing that they need to find their own way of making stories, not simply try and copy the stories they loved. It isn't a bad thing. Just part of the hobby.</blockquote>
