A similar thing happened with Star Wars Galaxies. Part of the original pitch was that like <1% of players would have access to the Force. Only from there with super hard training could they be Jedi. This matches the lore of the universe, Jedi (especially in the OT era) are the most rare creatures.
This was accurate, and would make seeing a Jedi in the game world the coolest thing imaginable, but it was a disaster for the finances of running the game.
Obviously, EVERYONE wants to be a Jedi. So they re-tooled it so that anyone could. Eventually the whole game was replaced with another MMO that was set in the ancient ages when they were common.
