I don't really see the correlation between all versions getting fast updates and the game dying. Unless they were planning on a simultaneous release of MS 2 in all regions.

That would cause a massive time paradox.
But really, I think this is EMS equivalent to MSEA episode 2 patch

Whats the purpose of releasing all that content so fast?, its either so they can get more players or because they are trying to grab them back. Since the second is happening to many versions, principally MSEA and GMS, I lean towards tthat option more.

Our patch frequency is ~1 patch per month, and only one patch without real "content" a year at the moment.
Yes, we're moving fast. But also look at the rediculous rate KMS is spitting up content suddenly, I think that's the main reason they sped up the patching.
Since August 2009 we got; Full Nihal Desert, KoC, Pirates, 4th job, full Leafre and most newer UI updates.

I would by no mean give this patch such title...while it was nice, the one patch worthy comparing to MSEA episode 2 patch would be definitly our Aqua Dungeon patch. THAT was major
