    I will link it again just for reference. There's literally no change to its trend in decline from Legion to BFA than any other expansion. https://imgur.com/a/RXimOXm

    And you trying to assign blame of the exact same decline trend of every expansion to BFA mythic dungeons is laughable. Although my guild example was an anecdote, at least it is based on my personal experience and the timeline of active subcription of WoW as evidence. Yours is literally "In my opinion this is bad design therefore that's why they are failing."

    Blizzard thought themselves king of MMO for the longest time and felt no need for change or update. They had ample time to start development of a new and more modern MMO or to update WoW to keep up with the time and continue their stranglehold on the MMO market, however, they were wrong, lack of change cannot adapt to the progress of time. So now, they lost one of their biggest money makers.

    Now here FFXIV doing the same, I don't know if they have another MMO in development, but they are going to face the same drop in players over time if they don't update FFXIV to keep in line with the modern games. They always think themselves king, thinking although not forever, they will have ample time to either develop a new game or change the current game, but in the blink of an eye they are at the point where they no longer have the huge monopoly on the market as someone else took over. It was the same with everquest, same with lineage, nothing new.
