Games like Metal Gear Solid, Devil May Cry, Deus Ex have dialogues that I can basically recite. I can barely remember anything said in WoW.
WoW is an old school rule-of-cool One-liner filled game. Atleast it was up to Legion. Then there’s basically nothing in BFA and SL

Single player narrative driven games have better dialogue?

Well these lines don’t appear enough to form a theme.
Of the three games you mention I have only played the DMC games and personally those never had many memorable dialogues and at best some some memorable one liners.
Personally, WoW has plenty of memorable dialog.
“No king rules forever”
“This is the hour of the Forsaken”
“Is he the bomb this time?”
“In the light we are one.”
“Sometimes the hands of fate must be forced”
“For the Alliance”(as Varian gets killed by Gul’dan)
For Azeroth(as Saurfang gets killed by Sylvanas)

whilst nothing new over the past expansion or so has been memorable “no king rules forever” is a pretty memorable line
“I know exactly what I’ll be doin’ about it, son of Hellscream. I’ll watch and wait, as your people slowly become aware of your ineptitude. I’ll laugh as they grow to despise ya, as I do. And when the time comes, that your failure is complete and your power is meaningless, I’ll be there to end your rule. Swiftly, and silently. You will spend your reign glancing over your shoulder, and fearing the shadows. For when the time comes, and your blood be slowly draining out, you will know exactly who fired the arrow that pierced your black heart.”
“You have sealed your fate, troll!”
“And you yours, warchief.”

WHAT? We’ve all been eaten by plants before, it happens, isn’t good enough?
“No king rules forever, my son”
“In the end, death claims us all”
“JUSTICE FOR SILVERMOON”
“Why do we fight? To protect home and family”
“FOR THE HORDE / FOR THE ALLIANCE”
You probably just don’t play WoW enough. lol.

Who could forget: "AAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAH AAAAH, YOUR LEGS JOEY, WHERE ARE YOUR FREAKIN LEGS?!? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH AHHHHH AAHHHH!!
Denethrius exists, so there’s definitely been memorable dialgoue in SL for me.
Also I can’t get any of the dialogue from Necrotic Wake out of my head. >_<

Because the game is driven through multiple narratives that are barely cohesive. It was bad enough with 2 factions, now it’s four covenants driving the story. On top of that blizz likes it’s episodic and short cliff hanger stories, so they are not going to spend too much time creating good and meaningful dialogue.
