With every MMO, we worry about the amount of content, and how long the game will see support and new content for. Square Enix seems to have big ideas in mind with the release of Dragon Quest X in Japan, according to this article.
It looks like SE has high expectations for their latest entry into the Dragon Quest series. Although we're still waiting for what seems like an inevitable localization announcement, it should be nice to know that if we do see the game over here, anybody who purchases this game will be seeing new content for a long time to come. Realistically, I don't expect them to actually support the game every 10 weeks for a decade. I wouldn't be surprised if they could manage to keep it up without everything becoming horribly repetitive for a year or two, at least. 10 years just feels overly optimistic.

"Nikkei (via Inside Gamer) reports that the game will get major version up revisions every ten weeks. Square Enix plans on offering download content for the game for around ten years, according to the paper."
"As for what that download content includes, the paper does not get into specifics. It's currently known that the game will get a series of story quests."
