I tend to agree with the OP.
Who ever posted "They will follow the money." is clueless. NCSoft financial reports show the money comes from Korea, Japan, China.
NCsoft
The west *thinks* they are the big gaming market. When in reality we are dwarfed by the East and will continue to be since they have the economic and cultural momentum at this time.

NCSoft does not need us. We offered a initial boost for their investors since suffering a profits drop in 2008. As long as Aion is strong in Korea, Japan and China - we are a secondary market.
