Why is TSW being beaten by War Z?

They're both about zombies, right? TSW even has vampires and werewolves! They both should have the same mass appeal, and TSW has both a more established developer and publisher and superior DX11-capable graphics engine.
Yet what does Xfire say?

Hmmm, $15 low-budget Russian indie zombie game still in beta with a very bad reputation (I'm not going to say the game's a scam, but that's what's being put out there) and haters bashing it on every site beats $15 B2P (on Amazon) multi-million dollar EA-published zombie MMO that is a darling of the critics and has fanboys all over the place to defend it. And this was true even before WarZ's steam release and after TSW went B2P. War Z was also showing a steady sustained increase in Xfire numbers.
Where did it all go wrong for Funcom?

I like TSW, but it's not about zombies. Yes, the 1st zone is highly infested and some in the 2nd, but it's not the core opponent.

different styles of game.
I also think that TSW underestimated the amount of pvp players out there and went for more of a pve approach and ignored the pvp playerbase.
right now I am enjoying both games.
