only the number 1 gaming in mobile, fps and mmo. FF14 is growing, but WoW still dominates from my understanding.

Regardless of where retail WoW stands, the WoW subscription is currently the best MMO value on the market by far.

One subscription gets you access to Classic Era, Hardcore Classic, WotLK Classic, and the modern game. They could have easily charged an extra $5 for Classic but they didn't, which is a rare pro-consumer move for ActiBlizz.

Do people generally play more than one version of WoW?

A lot of people I know play Classic Era/Hardcore and WotLK at the same time.

I personally play mostly hardcore classic these days, but I mess around in retail from time to time as well.

you can stand by it, but its incredibly valuable to Microsoft, and they will get their spendings back extremely quickly.

They'll make it back in like 5 years lol

Microsoft has enough money that they probably barely noticed this purchase.

Oh, I agree, I'm just saying that the money they spent to buy these companies, will be returned to them possibly even within 3 years. That's how much people are spending on KING products. Add to that a reduced cost for Blizzard IPs in-game shops? I can see them reducing the cost of skins from 20 dollars in Overwatch to 2 dollars, which in turn forces the mass sales principle to apply (aka reduce the cost so much that they sell 10x the product, but make 2-3x what they would have made with the original cost).

Sony is just as bad, the issue is all these studios and franchises under fewer umbrellas by the day. There is no upside for gamers, the only one winning here is Microsoft.
