That's certainly an interesting viewpoint you have there. One is an MMORPG, the other an online Football Management simulation.

i have nothing againts wow
That's certainly not the impression I get based on the constant "will this game kill WoW", "This game could be the end of WoW" etc that you seem to be posting...

and imo the thing that will make wow decease is TIME. sooner or later people are going to get bored of wow and look fomr somthing else to play. WOW cant last forever. this game, WAR and aoc provides a breath of fresh air for the likes of you and otehr mmo fans to take part in and play besides wow
The thing that will cause a decrease in subscriptions to WoW is when something comes along that does *everything* better than WoW currently does.

Yes, the content is currently looking a tad stale in WoW, but... WotLK is looking like it will be taking on all comers on release. Prior to the release of TBC a fair number of WoW players had drifted away to other games, but they were right back when the expansion hit: I suspect that the same will be true with the next expansion. I've only played AoC in the beta, and it was nice, but not awesome enough to be anything more than a stopgap to me. I'll probably buy it, play it on and off for a couple of months (see LotRO, D&D Online, Eve Online for further evidence of stopgap games for me) and ditch it and go back to WoW. I'm hopeful that WAR will deliver on the massive promise that it has, but I'm also in beta for that and... it still needs polish, and lots of it.

Anyhoo - back to FML: do you play Football Manager? I do. I've played it since the days of Championship Manager 2, and I'd really like for FML to take off, but it needs to have more allowance for casual players like myself. If you've NOT played Football Manager then... you might not like it. It's not a shiny pretty game, it's all about stats. Lots of stats.
