Players aren’t going to play the game exactly the way Blizzard “intends” and the more options that get removed, cut off, terminated or blocked, the more players will vacate the game for other games where the devs aren’t such complete control freaks and where players can find and enjoy the flexibility they crave.
WoW used to accommodate a vast variety of player styles.
It’s sad that there isn’t any room for that anymore.
But then, WoW isn’t really an MMORPG anymore either, it’s a time-gated Diablo hybrid online casino on rails with fewer and fewer player options every patch.
No wonder servers are empty and Azeroth is a ghost town.
