I was going to continue playing this game...

That's fine but WoW is the benchmark when it comes to mmorpg. Maybe Square Enix will learn from Blizzard. It seems the odd one out is the highest earner with the most subs consistently for a reason.

I'm going to tell you why you're wrong.

WoW's subs have been dropping hardcore in recent months, starting with Draenar's release.

Guess where most of those dropped subs are going to? You guessed it; FF14.

In my opinion, WoW was never the benchmark. The benchmark (in my opinion) being Ragnarok Online before the whole Renewal garbage.

While people will disagree with me; the entire game (WoW) rubs me the wrong way and I'm a hardcore fantasy/science fiction fan when it comes to video games. I don't feel invested in its world or sympathetic to any of it.

That said, WoW's an outdated system that's constantly getting a facelift. No offense, I'm glad it's finally starting to kick the bucket because it's honestly outlived its stay.
