Tbh i think this is a bit untrue. A majority of the influx of players were getting lately is due to the WoW crowd hopping over. Sure the game has obviously gotten bigger before then from ARR to ShB, but the game had and has very apparent problems that are now only overlooked because it’s really the only not terrible mmo on the market. At this point between wow and 14 it’s the matter of picking the better of two evils. I do think though a lot of SE’s recent success is due to WoW crashing.
