This doesn't necessarily apply to multiplayer games though: the free-to-play part of the playerbase is there to pad the numbers and ensure queues are short (if it's a match based game), cities are lively (if it's a MMORPG), etc.
If the developer can't appeal to those too, then you're left with a ghost town of a game that can't appeal to the whales either.
