Dumbing it down may broaden the audience, but greatly depreciates the value to veterans/past members. I agree mostly with what you have to say, but look at games like Mass Effect 3, Skyrim, and Dead Space 3. Compared to past entries in their respective series, the three I listed differ drastically in terms of either gameplay or plot layout. ME3 left many dozens of loose ends because Bioware was focused on making it the last game in the Shepard storyline. Skyrim lacks classes, canon-consistency and dramatic main quests, but is much easier. Th past games, like Oblivion, are considered "Unflexible" and "Difficult" by the scrubs who decide to get involved with a series at the FIFTH entry.

What I'm saying is, don't dumb it down. Allow the new wikia users to integrate themselves. Our job is to guide them along, not spoonfeed it.
