Are we still denying that World of Warcraft is dying?

It’s gearing system, where the daily quest grind gear is better inside raids than the mythic raid items in same slot. Unless they titan forge and you are a tank. Then your 450 boots maybe better.

Man…a month later and wow still not dead…must be a very drawn out process

Hey, warcraft has been dying since 2005 as far as I know. It was dead with every new vanilla patch and every new MMO game was supposedly a wow-killer. And wow has kept rolling over - dead ever since.

Wow-more lives than a cat

It’s a gearing system that is using currency - manapearls- which you get from doing dailies in nazjatar, one of the new areas introduced in 8.2. The good thing is that the basic pieces are very cheap to get and account bound but you can also upgrade them to 425. It’s a pretty decent alternative to gearing if you aren’t into raids or mythic+ dungeons and gives you a set goal.
Ofc, like every other system in wow that doesn’t go through raids or dungeons it has been met with great skepticism by those who want wow to be “instances or die”, like WoD or BfA at the early stages. Ironically, these are 2 expansions that are considered the worst among the wow community.

There you go .

according to all doomsayers, wow should be an undead now, roaming arround the world.

Edit: Pointless

Not true you still need to work to get the pearls to upgrade them and to get them to 425 is no easy task and for the 5 magic slots you keep on about hardly handed to people on a platter get over it .

Only a small fraction do Mythic raiding and a even smaller fraction clear it .

People like me also raid so get off your high horse mister .

No they are not forced at all far far from it only YOU feel forced

Stop thinking you are better then anyone else and that you speak for everyone ,you don’t know me .You come on the forums and rant and rave about gear all the time you have no clue what other people do and of there raiding pass .
You make me sick you disgust me you truly do ,always on about being bullied on the forums yet you do exactly the same thing with your high and mighty iam an elite raider act .

I miss 2 curves as I was in hospital for 5 months do not assume you are better then me and others .

Almost 150 Classic WoW realms worldwide, with 5+ million players. More than BfA, FFXIV and ESO … COMBINED.
BfA with maybe 1 million players. Probably less.

These numbers are clear for anyone to see, no need for an official statement, because it would clearly be an acceptance that Blizzard failed for 12+ years with WoW.

WoW is not dying, only Retail WoW is.

And the future action of Blizzard, and probably a full statement on numbers at Blizzcon this year, will show their intent to close Retail after next expansion, which will be the last one.

They might move Retail to mobile, but as a PC game, Retail WoW is done. One more expansion and its funeral will be official.

Trelw are forum wizard who deals in facts can easily debunk your numbers and has done in the last week .Please stop the anti retail trolling its getting sad now .

I urge you to read that ,a post that use’s actually numbers .

Actually not even close to 150 servers with EU and US combined it just reaches 60 adding other langauges would push it to 100 max.

If it is so easy to get as you claim then go ahead noone is stopping you from doing so. On the other hand, in order to get the specific pieces with the right proc you know very well that you need to farm and gamble tons of manapearls otherwise you end up with traits like “you swim faster” or “you appear larger” for example.
Your response is exactly what i meant about the ones who will cry over anything that is half decent and doesn’t come from instances. This is the reason why professions and crafting has been meaningless in the past 3 expansion.
I could never understand how some players are so affected by what others get or not. After all, what is amazing on WoW is its world too bad that the loud minority is trying to lock everyone up in an instance in order to play the game.

Anymore made up numbers or do you have sources ?

The bandwagon has existed since Vanilla and even persisted in WoW’s most successful days even when it boasted more than 10 million active subs.

But given it’s no secret that BFA has been less than successful…and now you got Classic which is a hit so far…

…let’s just say that’s a lot of food for thought.

The game certainly feels dead and I wish they merged servers or whatever to increase population. Last night when I was online at 2am barely any players where outside Stormwind whereas months ago every single night you could find people playing and dueling there until early morning. It’s simply a fact that a lot less people are playing. I would not bother with the forums however as only the most fanboyish people usually browse and post on the forums so all you’re gonna get here is hate. When I bring this up ingame everyone agrees, it’s just a tiny minority on the forum who have nothing better to do (surprise there) than to disagree with every post which puts WoW in a negative light.

It is a simple fact that you can not possibly know this for a fact you are guessing at best.
But regardless wow is still the biggest MMORPG on the market, so if wow is dead then every single other MMO on the market is dead.

But you can keep guessing the same thing as what people have done sins 2004 and it is still going strong at 2019

I will try saying it in a way that a simple fanboy will understand. Until Blizzard has the balls to announce their subscription numbers my view on whether the game feels more dead or not is a fact.
You get that or…?
