Former Blizzard CEO believes World of Warcraft's accessibility brings side effects

Mike Morhaime is the ex-president of Blizzard. Recently, he seemed to be very concerned about the current state of World of Warcraft, and claims that if Blizzard does not make any decisive improvements to World of Warcraft, the game will face the loss of player population, because its sociality is constantly decreasing. J. Allen Brack, the current president of Blizzard, disagreed. He believes that the current World of Warcraft is very good, and the continued increase WOW Classic Gold For Sale in subscriptions is enough to explain everything.

Mike Morhaime, one of Blizzard's co-founders, issued a statement last week. In his article, he said that although World of Warcraft is becoming more friendly to beginners, its increasing accessibility will be social to the game. Bring devastating blows. He believes that the game should not reduce the difficulty of the player's game by adding more auxiliary equipment and settings, but constantly encourage the player to play the game with other people and help each other. This is a more relaxed learning method, but it helps to improve Players have a deeper interest in the game.

Morhaime's article attracted lots of attention, including likely from current Blizzard president J. Allen Brack, who doesn't seem to share his predecessor's assessment of the state of the sport.

"World of Warcraft has been fortunate to be engineered as a really social experience, and that is as true today because the day we launched," Brack said during today's Activision's earnings call. "Over time, we've listened to feedback from the community, and also the game has evolved to what we now call the 'modern game,' which has really expanded the breadth and also the depth of gameplay, moreover as making it easier to quite find friends, group up, make progress, or play alone, all within the social environment."

Brack said Blizzard views both modern WoW and World of Warcraft Classic as "a single community, under one subscription," and aims to continue with content releases for both. Classic WoW has been particularly strong in Eastern markets, by which I assume he means China, but recent growth within the West was driven primarily by players returning to the fashionable game, which has helped drive strong pre-sales of the upcoming Shadowlands expansion.

There are many factors that have made World of Warcraft as successful as it is today, and it is obviously stupid to just argue with Mike Morhaime on sociality. But one thing is obvious. World of Warcraft has been running smoothly for 15 years, and sociality is only a small part of the huge changes the game has produced over the years. In an era when more and more classic MMORPGs are dying, World of Warcraft is undoubtedly one of the most successful games, especially after the release of WoW Classic. Brack said that since March 2020, both the retail version of World of Warcraft and the World of Warcraft Classic have maintained a continuous growth momentum and far exceeded the expectations at that time. In addition, COVID-19 has brought a huge disaster to the world, and Blizzard's game development work has also been affected. But players can still look forward to the Vanilla WOW Gold expansion of Shadowlands in World of Warcraft in the summer of 2020. MMOWTS is also constantly attracting more and more World of Warcraft players because they can buy WOW Classic Gold safe enough there. The professional team of MMOWTS ensures that the Classic WOW Gold you purchased is delivered to you as soon as possible, and their online customer service will answer any questions about your order.
