Partially what /u/Dernhelm said, partially the classic internet mob mentality. What ever game is the most popular of it's genre, gets a chunk of players purely because "everyone else is playing it". It's the thing that kept WoW on top for so many years.
I think that many people have invested in the game 100s if not 1000s of dollars and are to ingrained to leave. They play more out of necessity then out of want to play. Just one opinion
League of Legends. I don't understand why it's so big. The gameplay to me seems incredibly boring and the community is just straight up toxic.
