Nothing is measured in terms of sub numbers any more.

Across the board all games owned by Activision Blizzard are measured in MAUs.

“But WoW is dying and” oddly “we have to be extremely happy and excited about it!!!” This is coming from the nay-sayers by the way. I just enjoy poking fun.

I can foresee china to be they’re next cash cow they will milk them with the same recipe for around 10 years

I think they already started. The store mount Hogrus, Swine of Good Fortune was made for the Chinese market.

Blizzard have been in China for years. China is not going to open up, if at all it’s become less open to investment due to the current ‘president’. China is always going to be a struggle. Companies are fooling themselves.

Africa is too mired in corruption and with mobile infrastructure.

Seems top be an industry thing B-A have followed. Personally I dont care how many MAU my [figurative] company has only how much dosh I can squeeze from them.

(It feels like the finance industry are run by twits sometimes, doesn’t it.)

That wasn’t the first Chinese New Year mount we’ve been offered via the Store. Personally I’m grateful we get the option to buy if we want to. Before they started selling them, we had no access to those mounts at all.

From my point of view as a player i’m just curious what magic trick they will pull out of the hat to keep going .

A more honest (50% rather than 25% & they still add their usual sum on top of the crownfunded money) crowdfunding cosmetic once a year ? Fans will be happy, they get the money, everyone is satisfied.

Oh yeah and shop mounts. Lots of them actually.

Pretty sure that’s their plan after BFA pretty terrible PR.
