    While that is nice promotion for FF14, WoW is not going to struggle because of that. WoW's star has been on the decline before those reports were made public.

    WoW wasn't struggling before it either. It isn't the 10 Million active players it was in 2008, 13 years ago, backed by the Warcraft franchise storyline and Arthas, but it wasn't a financially dead game it was very,very successful. Even BFA was a very, very successful expansion for Activision-Blizzard. Nor was it a socially dead game given the esports growth that occured with the MDI, or with the World First Race.

    .....did we play the same expansion? The one that gave us warfronts? The lame and interminable war campaign? Mission tables? A return to the idiotic and threadbare 'Me orc me no like human orc smash" garbage? A lame, tacky, pathetic ending ripped off from Lord of the Rings?

    That BFA?

    Even BFA was a financial success, yes.

    It's not how many stay subscribed for the entirety of the expansion. It's how many buy that box copy/digital download of the expansion itself that makes it a financial success (3.4 million day one sales reported).

    That it was a game play disaster didn't matter. Activision Blizzard had already made their profits.

    I didn't even play the first one. It looked like a stinky game to me so I passed on it. Looks like I made the right choice in the long run, lol.
