I do believe that all of the new releases,consoles, and issues in this game will eventually kill it off. Even if this game was perfect it would happen because people want the new shiny toy. People like the GTA titles( I am not one of those) and for them that will be what takes them out of Defiance to others it will be a new console and ESO for example or any other number of games or reasons. I hate all the issues that pop up on this game and the extremely repetitive nature of it but I still play because I like the concept and it's one of the only games I have that isn't an long drawn out RPG, and it's good to sit down with (when you can get on and stay on) to wind down. Then again the argument can be made that Defiance could survive all of this by fixing issues and adding more story to do. NWN I found out is still going 11 years after it's release but at the same time that game's longevity is due to deep player involvement and created content and a social aspect you won't find with too many games. In the end it will come down to how many still play this game not everybody likes games like GTA and many will wait on getting a new console just due to the inevitable bugs that come with it, it's up to Trion to keep this game going it will be interesting to see how that happens.
