in World of Warcraft

g4tv just released WoW's REAL sub numbers and they are below cataclysm peaked at 11.5 mil, i wonder how many more subs they have to lose before they realize it's their newest expansion causing people to leave and not other games. It's the reason i left for LOTRO Cata was boring, and repeated all the same old elements of the game like grinding rep, grinding a new profession, and oh yeah grinding some more. hasn't anyone in this industry realized that grinding does not for a good expansion make???

    Old news there was an official post about this quite a while go, they lost 600k Subs but still had an increase in profit since Q1 last year, mainly due to the expansion.

    I'm sure the Blizzard store helped keep those profit margins rising despite the loss of subscriptions.
