I think there's a thread on this already.

It's free to play now but they charge you for bullshit things. Two action bars by default... if you want another, you have to pay extra for it... every month. I want to delve deeper into the storylines, but meh

haha yeah it sucks being f2p, but its helping me get my WoW-like fix in the meantime.

According to my boss who started playing it when it first came out, the populations have shrunken so massively that there are areas in game where players from multiple servers converge.

IMO MMORPGs are dying.

That or people are getting older/less interested in games/don't have time anymore. Me and my friends would spend a LOT of time at home playing WoW and the like. But when SWTOR and GW2 came out, most of us played it for a bit then stopped after a month or two. Seems like the case for people on gaming forums too.

I think people are waiting for an MMORPG that is better than WoW and offers something truly new.

We shall see what Titan will bring us.

In the big picture, this can either make or break Blizzard. They didnt hold a Blizzcon last year because there was nothing new to show. SC2 has now been surpassed by League of Legends in popularity. Diablo 3 was underwhelming.
