World of Warcraft remains facing major subscriber concerns (von wendy88)

World of Warcraft remains facing major subscriber concerns. Things haven’t looked thus bad since 2006 and the ones would expect a bit more from a company containing so many successful titles such as Diablo, Hearthstone or Heroes on the Storm. But the truth is that Warcraft is going down, sort of. Not surely, and we will explain why listed below.There are around 5. 6 million active players in Wow right now. The population is still large enough it could boast about web hosting service more people than some countries on the globe do, but around 6 weeks ago thing were looking a bit differently: around 10 million buyers. That population was around mostly due to World of Warcraft Gold the Warlords of Draenor Expanion.Now Warcraft is has almost the same population as Final Fantasy has, the latter one gladly hosting around 5 million players every month. So, theoretically, if Warcraft were to be where it is right now, it would be considered by surprise by Final Fantasy within the following, let’s say, 6 months.But the only stuffs that are keeping Warcraft together will be the expansions. The trend is of which Blizzard Entertainment have to come up with a new major expansion on a yearly basis around October, November or December. Why? Because people will pay to secure a subscription and play the game for 2 months. There are new things available, people explore a little, get some loot, then they stop enjoying again.What’s the catch? There are people who've been playing the game for ten years. They know every zoom, the majority of techniques, they have the greatest gear around and they simply have to do raids or combat each other from time to time. This population is saturated and there may be frankly, for them at lowest, no reason to play the sport anymore.Why would you pay $10 each month in between April and October and then purchase the new expansion on an extra $50 when you may just play any other free-to-play game in the marketplace and save those more $50 and pay them if your expansion arrives? There is no point in playing for anyone who is top level and leading gear. You do the same things continuously every day.Blizzard needs to figure out what they wish to do with World regarding Warcraft because, ever since Cataclysm, the game has been limping and players kept either quitting for great or quitting form time for it to time, which are both burning off Blizzard’s money.
