It's not the same amount as its heyday, but it's still the most popular MMO. Hell i picked it up last expansion after not playing it for ten years and still have a good time, for now.
I will never buy this mount though. I refuse to pay more for a game that costs money to buy and a sub to play. What's unfortunate is you can really tell blizzards priorities now. Content is severely lacking, every patch has quite a few bugs, and it really feels like they have a skeleton crew working on the game while milking the remaining population. And so many people are totally okay with that. If there was at least another decent MMO out there I'd drop wow and play it. But the MMORPG space is sorely lacking.
So disappointed in my state. Even though we're a blue state, we still eat up the propaganda. We also couldn't even end forced prison labor and i don't think anyone was even advocating for it
