The WoW exodus was caused by what Blizzard is currently doing on the inside of their company. I played Diablo 3 constantly, but stopped the second the news hit. I still miss playing it, but any company that does what Blizzard did does not deserve my time or money.

This is why I said "in part". I think it was the straw that broke the camel's back for most people, myself included. There can be many factors that can contribute to a person's decision.
