We had a patch that was 16 weeks but in theory fell in three months. I am sure that is not a translation error.

This is WoW cycle for the 2.X series.

2.0 December 5/06 2.1 May 22/07 2.2 Sept 25/07 2.3 Nov 13/07 2.4 Mar 25/08

16 instances 8 raids 63 weeks.

3.0 Oct 14/08 3.1 April 19/09 3.2 Aug 4/09 3.3 DEC 8/09

16 instances 10 raids 63 weeks

We got 18 instances over a much longer time. Raids are a little bit odd one boss isn't a raid how would you like to count the trials/raids?

But when 14 gets to 5 or 6 I will revisit how well they are doing in comparison. I posted 2 and 3 from WoW for you I consider a ARR a base game considering what 1.0 was. But if you want to consider ARR the first expansion the info still stands.
A decade ago Blizzard was on the ball. Not sure that's relevant, but hey, I'm done. I don't see your point but feel free to feel neglected.
