Until Blizzard changes or fixes this the subs will continue to decline.

I donât think they have the man power to fix it.
They do not care much for the subs much, they care for engagement. Thatâs why since Legion we had many systems purely made to further that goal. But pushing for engagement also just push players out as not all players want to spend that much time in the game and thatâs at all levels.
Which now to a certain point, the only players that are remaining are those that can spend a lot of time in the game as if you want to do anything itâs very grindy.
Iâm not quite sure the focus on group content is bad, itâs more that their designs have eliminated the casual group content player. With stuff like M+ being so huge in design (with no RDF) and no badges system like we used to have and no bad luck protection system if you just want to be able to be done. With heroic raiding population crashing and barely being worth to be done when you can just spam M+ (which in many ways is way more hardcore).
So we have the super casuals that mostly do lower end content and the hardcore that do everything and high end content. Losing that core middle ground type of player is what for me has hurt the game a lot.

I think this is the group of players Blizzard lost the most to other MMOs. They just stopped catering to this audience.
Asmongold brought this up last year, he said the average MMO player has been completely abandoned by Blizzard. I think this group made up like 70% of the players.

Not quite. This isnât âeveryone gets a trophyâ and its certainly not designed for instant gratification. Work for your rewards. Work towards a goal.
Nope.

This is trash.
You do⊠raid.
Anything Blizzard adds they want to be grindy and be spread out over months and months and months and they want everything to fit inside this stretched out timeline they have planned to make it seem like thereâs more to do than there actually is.

This isnât a single player game. Everything that we do affects others, even if you personally think that itâs irrelevant or nonsensical. Itâs actually kind of neat, if you think about it.
Honest question: then why are you playing right now? Iâm currently taking a break and being a dirty raid logger while playing other games. The only reason I even raid is because I love my friends/guildies and want to spend time with them. Just because you take a break from something doesnât mean that you donât like it anymore. Sometimes itâs the healthy thing to do, and Iâm sure next tier Iâll be refreshed and ready to get back to adventuring.

Also trash.what do you have against group content in a group oriented game?
Forced group content is killing the game. Sure, make it optional group content.

Then I expect more pushback from players like yourself when the posters who do routinely make this complaint do it next.
Its a group game. Suck it up and join a group. If you know your class its a non issue
Sorry, it is a huge issue. You seen the huge decline in the game?

I supposed is this why this game is âdyingâ since the gameâs inception because people need to group
Thats due to lazy players getting yeeted from groups for playing like neanderthals. Then they get this idea that its not them, its the game lol gtfo
They just need to focus on making raids mega dungeons now. They seem to have a hugher quality than the actual raids.
Things change over almost 20 years or so from gamers perspectives and needs. Itâs like the game hasnât adapted and the population of the game shows it.
You donât think the game has declined? Please explain!
Oh I know the game has decline. It is a 20year old game after all. Alot of new generation of gamers canât be ask to play mmo. itâs nothing to do with the game but the mindset.
