World of Warcraft subscribers increased since mid-May,
From the official Q2 from blizzard. 
Wait ? What do you mean the doomsayers were wrong ?

To be fair, thatâs a pretty short term metric.
Nevertheless, the game has made quite some leaps since 8.0. It wasnât a good patch overall, but people went way too hard on drama mode.
I blame the youtubers stroking the fire for easy clicks and views mostly though.

Three times the grind, half the bosses. Oh boy.
AnubâArak was pretty cool fight on 25 man though. As a healer I loved how it had a different focus on precision rather than raw HPS output.

Youâre delusional if you think itâs because BfA is so good now and not because people want to play classic stress tests even if itâs just for a few days.

No worries. OP. Doomsayers are on their way to prove that the info is wrong. That that is not correct. The factor A or factor B is at work and so on. BfA is still badz and all that crud.
Edit:
There we go. Took them long enough to get here.

Must be fun living in your own bubble thatâs so far from reality that you still believe the game is fine as it is right now.

Not really. I just find fun and positive and in whats available. No matter how good or bad the game is at its current moment. I donât get any pleasure from being negative and criticizing anyone or anything. I dont need to troll or bash bfa before I can go to sleep or something.
There are two kinds of people:
- Oh look its a sunny day today. Might be a bit hot but thats ok, gonna wear light clothes and go out for a run on this nice day.
- God damn it. The sun is too hot. The grass is too long. The temperatures are too high. Everything sucks. Screw it. I am going back home.

The fact that you think this makes any sense at all is astounding.

On serious note i do share your positive view. I might complain about parts of the game sometimes but i donât understand mentality behind eagerly waiting game to fail and shove it for those who still like it. 
Even now when report said subs have gone up and they made more than they predicted for this quarter there is some thread going suggesting wow is not doing well.

You see this is what I donât understand either.
People seemingly WANT WoW to end. They look forward to it. They are determined to see it happen. Itâs like âwhat the hellâŚ?â
These idiots are seemingly happiest, when miserable.

Look, WoW has ALWAYS had people wailing doom and gloom over literally everything.
ââTBC killed WoW, Classic was the only true gameââ
ââWrath brought too much QoL, the game is dead now for sureââ
Heck, people complained about Naxx and AQ40 in vanilla and said those ââkilledââ the original game
Iâm glad Blizzard actually listened to the community and are starting to fix the things about BFA players dont like

Guess not for you I suppose. WellâŚif you like being Mr. Negative its your choice. Who knows. Maybe indeed you get fun and pleasure out of bashing bfa and attacking and disapproving everyone who is even slightly positive regarding WoW.
All I can say is we have different views. You pursue anything which is negative. The more negative the better. I look for anything which is positive. Even Bfa which I never claimed to be in the best possible state, I can find some fun it it. Thus I pay the sub costs. I woulnât pay a sub just so I could sit on the forums and spew âEverything is bad. Everything sux. Everything is awfulâ 24/7.
WellâŚGuess it indeed it is. In my âbubbleâ or ârealityâ i can choose to look for a âwarm bright sunâ or a âdark gloomy cloudâ.

Well, either the people hope that when it gets bad enough Blizzard is forced to make more dramatical changes to the game to make it more attractive again, or itâs just an indication that there are certain things (like IEs) wrong with WoW that enough people leave because of it. Feels better the more people share your opinion.
But for normal noone on the forum really wants WoW to end (unless they are truly addicted to the game and see a game shutdown as the only solution never play it again)
