I too have unsubbed and left WoW. I’ve also posted comments regarding the game’s dwindling player base and their subsequent migration to other games. Specifically FF14. This is especially significant when you look back at what happened during WoD after polygon’s “no more flying ever” news article was posted. People left WoW in droves in favor of FF14 because at that time, Squaresoft announced that FF14 would have flying ADDED to the game with their new expansion. This is no coincidence. Squaresoft smelled blood in the water and they dealt a swift and timely blow that left WoW reeling. To this day I still don’t think Activision/Blizzard has fully recovered from that. I’m seriously considering reactivating my sub on FF14 because I’m about fed up with Ion and everyone on his team and all the BS they’ve pulled lately. Pathfinder is the biggest issue for me but certainly not the only one…not by a long shot. Too many changes to the game strictly for sake of change and not because they were needed, getting rid of classic quests such as Linkin’s Memory from Un’Goro Crater, getting rid of the old talent trees, changing the game world we all loved after Cata…I already left once due to most of these changes and came back a month after WoD, but everything since then has just gone from bad to worse and I just don’t want to deal with any more of it.
