That's right, cause companies only make profit, there is no cost to run a company.

So they make this "1 Billion" every, what... three years?

Blizzard merged with Activision back during BC days. The merger cost quite a bit, if not billions. However, it was speculated to grow their income by 94%

Activision doesn't give a shit about blizzard's rep, just the money they can make them.

Game is definitely dying, as in losing majority of it's old and newer player base. I doubt it will ever die completely, but their profits will suffer greatly. Especially with them pumping out random shit to keep their current player base busy.


To add onto this, the only people still playing are the people who have nothing else to do in their free time.
There are many many better games out right now regardless of what others may think.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing in my second tenure (MoP ToT -> BRF) but Blizzard really needs to think about what the fan base wants and not what makes them the most money.

... You do realize people generally play what they enjoy? Are you really saying you know what another human being likes more than themselves? On top of that, your first sentence is utterly retarded as well, when the fuck else do people play video games?

Guys take a look at gamescon. If you like raiding look at Gw2 is gonna bring.....


You mean open world zergs that they like to call raids? Rotation in GW2 = 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

I can only hope Bliz wakes the fuck up and adds RPG elements back into the game in future expansions and stop treat us like the mobile / fb app gaming community.

Again, a lot of that is people who buy a $5 copy for rafs etc.

I don't disagree that player base is down (thats irrefutable, numbers dont lie), but to say the game is dying is idiotic.


to say the game isn't dying and hasn't been dying for years, is idiotic.

look at d2, game was dying for years but there was still a big player base. ofc no where near wow, but there were still big numbers from the original players. game still was dying. same goes for wow. wow has lost what 50% of it's subs? that's not dying to you? :bonk:

If you aren't raiding mythic the game sucks, this tier is really fun though.
The garrison/shipyards are the worst idea in Wow history.
