I would bet most of the people who played on nost would never pay to play in the first place.
It's like the idea that people pirating games hurts the industry. Most of those people would never buy the game in the first place.
The only reason they play it is because it's available. Add a pay wall and Let's see how many of those dearly saddened nost players stick around.
Some, But is some enough for blizzard to fund servers, staff, etc for it? I'm guessing no. Otherwise actibilizzard would have already been capitalizing off it.
(How many of you would pay to play P99 $15 a month? Be honest, not happy-feely.)
Edit: And one more thing. how many people here actually bought and paid for the titanium client?
Same idea goes for Nost. How many of those people do you think actually bought the client from blizzard?
