I don't think social media banter is going to detract from their efforts on the next expansion, tbh.

We don't really know for sure that WoW is bleeding more % of their subs than FFXIV is :\

Also WoW's sub base is still well above FFXIV

Anyway this is just friendly banter between companies...

What's funny are all the replies from angry WoW subscribers and former subscribers.

To be honest, I have no idea what you are trying to argue. That said, I found it to be quite funny - and that it made perfect sense as The Horde is a fairly iconic thing from Warcraft which is the leading game in the genre.

I also saw those replies. I thought a lot of them were funny. The salty ones were not quite so much. I really liked the one from League =)

Yes, Horde is a term that WoW uses, but it's a regular term meaning a group of people.

At least to me, it came off like WoW was saying, "You're using our word in your title?"

I thought it was funny. Blizzard staff basically said 'u wot m8' and it was clearly meant as a joke.
