Sadly true, but a MMO isn't like a single player game that you can throw into the market and almost forget it like they did with Planescape:Torment, that if it weren't for talented fans patches would be, with only the last official patch, barely playable and full of glitches and broken secondary quests. A MMO requires constant care and skilled personnel even a long time after initial release, so every good news for Interplay is a godsend, meaning that it will be easier for them to get the funds necessary to hire talented programmers and creatives.
Just to see the glass half full, in the worst case Bethesda will have to work harder to face possible competition, so we'll see at least a little benefit from what happened. In no way Interplay victory can ruin what Bethesda is doing well and it can't worsen what Interplay itself is doing so let's hope that all this will bring more than its minimum potential.
