Afaik it wasn't even a million copies
They've noted in fiscal calls they're trying to (and successfully) making up revenue with games like Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm. Overwatch is part of that too.
At some point, once they feel comfortable with the income from their other games, they might just pull the trigger and make WoW f2p as well.
Go play Rift, its been better then WoW for years.
It's a lack of content combo'd with a lack of the roleplaying and social elements that enchanted people during the Vanilla days (when the game sold itself as a world instead of a hamster wheel).
WoW being a social game also means that there's an amplifying effect: when your friends leave, you leave too.
I'd say Blizzard are probably my favourite game developers of all time, and I do want them to do well...
But I'm glad WoD is flopping for them, and I hope Heroes of the Storm follows suit. Too much money for what they are, and it's about time fans started to call bullshit on them.
Token system is killing the subs
Unless they make some massive changes in a base game patch with the next expansion, I don't believe the subscription numbers will improve much...
Can't see HotS doing bad. I've said it before but the only ones who had a chance at breaking into the big 2 (LoL and Dot) to make it a big 3 was Blizzard and it looks like they can succeed.
Bring back Illidan !!!!

Oh well. Somebody is bound to produce a decent and at least a bit of an original MMO at some point.
Garrisons was a horrible idea

Mike Morhaime said in the conference call that the next expansion will be tied to player feedback on Warlords of Draenor, and that we should be excited, in this aspect, for what they will show at gamescom.
30 million copies of Diablo holy crap.... how is that possible?
You know what must be done, Blizzard.
Vanilla WoW remake. Graphics being the only thing touched.
Ever since Activision took over Wow went downhill 😢

They mean it as much as when they said 6.1 was a big patch.I wonder if he actually means it or if it's just PR talk for their share holders.
SMITE is already part of the big three. HotS is just overpriced fan-exploitative nonsense, and I don't want it to do well.
FFXIV is gonna pass it at this rate.
....Twilight zone man.

Lol? Smite is barely a blip on the radar. I'm sorry, but no matter how much you like the game, it does not put it in the same category as League or Dota.
I hope so. I'm already eager to play again, but just can't justify resubbing right now for WoD.Rösti;174156420 said:

D-d-diablo expansion at Blizzcon, plz?
Please give me my druid back!

But I miss farming soulshards for 2 hours before the raid for them lazy bastards crying for summon ;-;People think they want that but you really don't. WoW has advanced so, so, so much over a decade, sometimes good and sometimes bad but stuff like the old raids people love to circlejerk over are actually pretty lame and boss mechanics have advanced so much that they are just boring.
Take Molten Core, none of the bosses even have any shittalk and are just reskins of other enemies, outside of Majordomo and Rag who says like 3 things.
If they were to do Vanilla WoW again they would have to at least update some things. People missing the community and meeting other people in the world and World PvP is understandable but Vanilla WoW was not the de facto best era in every way.
I wonder if he actually means it or if it's just PR talk for their share holders.
Blizzard already said they're done with MMOs. The company is now focusing on smaller, easier to develop, more casual games like HoTS/HS/Overwatch.
After the horribly poor support for the expansion and poor reception to end game content, it was more than expected.Yeah.... I'm actually shocked that WoW is down to 5.6 million now. What a huge/fast drop.

Patch 6.2 is the last patch until the next expansion. Basically, the game has received only one content patch for Warlords of Draenor. This looks utterly pathetic compared to Final Fantasy XIV.New Content

Agreed. Not playing until the expansion pre-patch.I hope so. I'm already eager to play again, but just can't justify resubbing right now for WoD.
Good expansion + console version + new SKU for the expansion on the console.
