These numbers are too be expected with any new game, and more so with such a sophisticated and complex game like SC2.

DOTA dominates the game TV channels, because it's free, it's established, it's a blast to LAN with your buddies, it's easier to get into. If you go to a typical college dorm where 5 or more guys share a room in a building full of those rooms, they'll most likely be LAN'ing DOTA or CS. 20 RMB per month (about 3 USD) may not sound like that much to non-Chinese, but it's a pretty big deal for college kids and young people who drive the Chinese game market which free-to-play MMOs (in glorious 2D) and pirated DOTA/CS rules. | ||

I've seen a good deal of friends quit playing over the seasons for various reasons. I'm almost at that point as well now, 1v1 ladder is about the last thing i'd do for fun anymore (TvP anyone? Jesus Christ..) and team games got stale a while ago. The custom games in SC2 have not captivated me in the slightest whereas I remember playing customs in SC1 and WC3 for months and months after I had given up on the standard play. At least for me personally, most of the people I know who are quitting are just switching to Dota2 because its so much more fun. Fun and easier to play... | ||
