But i am willing to bet that it is more than 50% (and maybe up to 70% or more).



Then there is the talk about the game being more geared towards players who like challenges. The game always allowed players to experiment and challenge themselves. What they did was not to remove the challenge but to remove the casual play. They could have added more challenges without killing casual play if what they wanted was to expand their audience.



Even so, there is nothing wrong for them to remove the casuals if they desire so. All they have to do is to make a public announcement that they don't like game to be easy and that they only want pro players. There might be a lot of cursing for a few days but players who don't like it will simply leave and the protest will end. The only reason there has been so much protest over two weeks is because they haven't come out to say a single word.



The only thing they addressed so far was the PBT and that they are looking into it. I am sure that the public would love more specifics.
