EDIT: Forgot about Penthouse) and a revamp of their raids that will bring 3 raid bosses. The thing is, all 3 raid bosses are the same that people have been killing for years, so it's basically equivalent to T5 in AoC: they're just getting the same raid bosses with pretty much no new assets but a revamped difficulty.
Don't get me wrong, TSW is fantastic, but it has the same problem as AoC with very slow development... I think Bibik hit the mark though - the MMO market in general is in a bad spot. It isn't just FC, every MMO with only 2 real exceptions have it bad. I don't think any Western Dev will choose to invest much in MMOs considering all the failures of the last 10 years, and I think even if FC's financial situation was great and Lego was a big success, they probably wouldn't choose to invest much into AoC and TSW anyhow.
