Serious concern for the future

Right now, I’m feeling really uncertain and worried about the future after Mist of Pandaria. The main question is: why spend so much time on alts, gear, etc. if there’s no future after MoP?
My doubts about the future are growing because of the really low numbers Mist of Pandaria is getting compared to Cataclysm Classic. There has been no substantial improvement from last week to this week, and the situation will not improve any further; in fact, it will get worse.

There is no cross-realm when it is needed, and I don’t want to reopen the LFR paragraph (also because people get 476 in celestial in 2 hours and won’t do it again until September, gg Blizzard).

What I wonder is how long the already very fragmented community can survive such fragmentation? Now the excuse is that “content has been released in retail,” but at the end of the year, TBC Anniversary will be released, and there will be fragmentation again, and at the beginning of the year, the next WoW expansion. I don’t see a bright future in this regard, even for “celestials” who remain solely and exclusively anchored to LFR gear.

I would like to know if there will be a future after Mist of Pandaria. Is it worth investing time to see Dreanor and then Legion? Can we have cross-realm support now to bring the world to life? (and even more so to LFG)? Knowing if there will be a future is the most uncertain thing right now. In Cataclysm, I was sure that MoP would be announced, and in the MoP prepatch, I was sure that we would get to Dreanor. Now I’m not so sure, and every week that passes doesn’t make it any better.

I think u should play MOP if u are having fun in MOP and not because of any other reason

Fun comes from setting goals for yourself. All with a perspective of “emptiness” rather than fun.

It’s going to continue to Legion at least. After that? Who knows.

Well in the end of the day, nothing matters, nothing lasts forever

It’s a very negative outlook, hence negative, but true reply.

It’s like do I bother leveling a alt and going through that pain on Anniversary realm? well I’d enjoy TBC and wotlk, i’m sure those expansions will be out for it, that’s just what I prefer to play, this will become more retail like, it’s already started so that’s my backup plan… sure I lose everything i’ve done, but I played classic… for the classic feel and expansions before it hit the fan like retail is now, but that’s just me and what i’m use to and what I enjoy.

For me its kinda enjoy mop classic its why i rerurned wow. If it ends mop so be it. Sure not going to back retail and classic+ tbc or whatever possible wotlk after that no thanks, then its just time to let go wow for me. But enjoying game again and well nothing last

what do you mean ‘‘went down’’ it was always like this on gehennas at least. Now that I look at it, both alliance and horde went up 7k players.
