I realised recently that I now have 19 full campaigns that I've never played, each of which would take at least 2 years to play through at my current rate. So that's enough adventure material to last me well past retirement - and that's just the full campaigns!)Which means that, in order to continue making money, a company needs to either keep people buying beyond the point where doing so actually adds to their game or they need to bring in large numbers of new players.</blockquote>
