From a high of 10 million subscribers to start the year, “World of Warcraft” subscriptions have seen a dramatic drop to 7.1 million during the first three months of 2015 alone and the decline appears to continue since the gamers feel that they have nothing much to do and go on to in the video game.
What is surprising is that the decline in subscription to “World of Warcraft” started just two months after an increase in the number of subscribers happened in November last year. So it was kind of a drastic pendulum swing for the video game.
But Blizzard Entertainment and its investors are still not too overly concerned, confident that the game’s value would not diminish a bit especially with the fact that the developer is about to roll out “World of Warcraft” Patch 6.2 soon. The patch contains Tanaan Jungle and the Shipyard and is expected to provide players with a host of new gameplay options.
well garrisons killed off immersion in the game flying was the insult to injury blizzard truly are an obnoxious bunch but what do you expect in a corporate psychopathic world
I don’t really know why people are/were bent out of shape about flying in Draenor…it’s not like there is any content to fly too. Which, oddly enough, seems to be Blizzards current problem…creativity…or, the lack thereof. The reason Blizzard is losing sub’s is not the “no-flying” part of draenor, it’s the other part that Blizzard can’t seem to wrap their creativity around, “Content.” FF14 understands creativity with content, Blizzard just doesn’t seem to get it anymore.
What they are offering is BS…not everyone want to grind for weeks just to get a flying mount (I have 10 flying mounts). They just lost a 1/3 of their income… I would think they would like to try keep the rest of us…
They killed their own numbers they had a ban wave and kicked off a couple million botters last month, that’s where the numbers dropped from
garrison was the dumbest thing from blizzard but there was so many other mistakes they have done in the past. instead of trying to leech of our money with expansions that increase levels (from 60 to 100 now, what a joke), the game should have always been capped at level 60 and they should have work things out within these limits of a capped level 60.
They didn’t compromise. They caved. Like they always do.
