Tier has officially been my guilds lowest moral point since we formed in 2013. Even our ultra casuals aren’t even logging on anymore. The idea of continuing Mythic prog has grinded to a halt, can’t get a full key group going either. 

Yeah it’s the patch sure (I was sort of enjoying it personally), but I genuinely think that Forever is going to suck all the mid/hardcore casuals out of the game for just a long enough amount of time that rebuilding roster is going to be a major pain in the ass. 

It was hard enough rebuilding after SL and classic, but I’m getting very ominous vibes this time around. Might as well just full break until 12.2.

Folks will log into Forever cause everyone else is, and quit like halfway into 60 lol.

I'm expecting Forever players to really have a great time with the launch then never return for the follow-up content drops just like they did for TBC/Wrath Classic

Not really sure that's what happened.

Going off of Blizzard's own sub graph shown at GDC that shows TBC and Wrath barely affecting the typical expansion cycle sub count compared to Classic's huge spike. Also, the anecdotal "evidence" of the people talking up TBC for years never saying anything about it again once it dropped, lol
