This youtuber explains perfectly why MMOs are losing their standing in general, the fun is being sucked away at all varying levels.

The cause? Because Devs think Frustration=Losing Subs in the modern day MMO, and afraid to teach players. Only small MMO dev Teams nowadays are making games with appropriate difficulty, Corporate MMOs are going in the opposite direction with many bad decisions.
