I was looking for something new in Youtube. For the most of it, I’ve been trying to ignore WoW videos, as they usually talk about the meh stuff coming.
\nBut one<\/a> featuring Heelsvsbabyface, who claims that subscriptions have dropped from 10 million to 7.2 million (and still dropping)… wow. This is such great news.<\/p>\n

I don’t need to tell you how<\/em> this is great news. But it seems people are waking up that Patch 6.1 was very sub-par with the whole selfie thing. But what makes this big news, is this… lmao. I still can’t believe it. As much hype Blizzard put into WoD, and got the highest subscriber base they had… then… wow… have it get lowered to the LOWEST they had<\/strong> (7.1 million)! Plus, have it lowered so QUICKLY! 2.9 million people (including myself) have left the game. Hoo HOO! \ud83d\ude00 They fucking DESERVE this! Yes.. they deserve every<\/span> loss.<\/p>\n

They…. they have ruined WoW, and I’m very glad people are waking up and seeing this. And I’m hearing from Blizzard, how this is normal and… just more BS I don’t care to hear.
\nBut seriously, I don’t hate WoW. I still like the game. I just don’t like where it’s going.<\/p>\n

Will this make Blizzard wake up and finally grasp reality again, NOT make stupid shit Selfie patches, break class balancing, and actually move the story forward in a sensible way? … Nope. After what Heelz said, Tannan Jungle has “more Apexis Crystal grinding”. I.. wow. Makes me glad I left when I did.
\nHere I kind of hoped 6.2 would get me get back into WoW… looks like it’s not. On top of that, that WoW token subscription thing? I hear it’s 25% more than a standard subscription.
\n25% more.. than a subscription. That’s nuts. And speaking of subscription fees, I heard that Blizzard actually raised the price of it in a few countries, just to offset the losses. Do they only care about your money anymore? Because it seems so.<\/p>\n

I was actually praying this wasn’t Blizzard’s doing; that Activision had a gun pointed to their heads. This news proves either they’ve been ‘brainwashed’ by multiple figures of money, or… they have long since snapped due to all the whining over the years on the forum.<\/p>\n

But this proves that we can damage a corrupt company with our wallets instead of our voices. If only the same could be done to Ubisoft, EA, and all other companies that care for their customer’s cash than the actual customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
