Totaw War: Arena is going down

Another Wargaming project made in the same formula as World of Tanks is going down.
Apparently after fail of World of Warplanes, Wargaming didn't learn, that the formula is failed, and World of Tanks succeeded not because, but in spite of flawed formula, where better players have to carry, or are being dragged down by worse players.
This ended how it can be seen in World of Warplanes, World of Warships lost half of player base before WG realized, that endgame content matters, and now Total War: Arena met its fate.
It wasn't bad game, there were tactical options, but there were also all flaws of the mode, design based on frustration and lack of endgame.
The only hope for World of Warplanes is Gaijin - shutting down WoWP would be a confirmation, that Wargaming is a single game company (20k peak players in WoWS is joke), and this is something that WG really doesn't want to do. Especially when WoT also loses players, because frustration isn't a good fuel for something, that should entertain.
