“I think we all know this is a $30-$40 game at best, but it’s not in our control to determine those things”, said one employee who worked on the project.

Love it

This is true of most games.

Even the most popular games only ever really have a few hundreds of thousands of players on at any given time. I've never once seen a game that has managed to keep the concurrent player count at or over a million for more than a single day.
