Official release date announced:

Realistically the ship's sailed in 2006 when they decided to increase the level cap with an expansion, and then absolutely gone beyond the point of no return in 2008 when they've set the precedent that each and every expansion would do the same which set people's expectations

Also, them really focusing on the instanced part of the game basically starting tbc

This. Early on they kept saying the game would be "over" at level 100 for the cap. Never understood the +10 level increase with each xpac. Could have done +5s, or just not increased it at all and added new zones/content/story lines for each xpac. Oh well, they're the boss.
 
I think one of the biggest problems is also the part where everything thats not instanced has become less and less relevant with each passing expansion, combined with the desire to increase the level cap anyways.
Oh, and also the ilvl/stat inflation but realistically that was already beyond redemption even at 1.12
 
More than any other decision, arena ruined the game

Say that to a Venruki, Whazz, Pikaboo or whatever. What should all the r1 players do? They will get bored very quickly and the game will be dead someday :)

The game will be dead some day. But not because the top .001% of the arena community decides to quit. Jfc I'd go anon too if I was going to say something this dumb.

Oh, somebody can not stand the truth. If it does not go dead, because there is no content on 60 except raid and bg, where should that lead then please? Who should enjoy it? What are all the gladiator players doing? You do not seriously believe that they are content with raid and bgs lol. And there are not many Pve players like that. So it will not last 100% You will still know. Btw beta servers are already dead.
 
Pretty sure they gonna be dueling. Beta was "dead" on arrival due to limited invite wave. You aren't going to have a thriving, growing community when only select limited amount of people are allowed to play

There were more active subs before arenas release than there are currently.

But sure, 5 people who play 1/1000th of the games content are the reason it survives
