My biggest issue with Blizzard and WoW right now is that with MoP (yes, MoP) they had a great blueprint of features that they could use to truly offer good variety of MMORPG-centric activities to fit different tastes and playstyles (scenarios, great dailies system like 5.1, many secondary systems that were optional, CMs, descent LFR etc etc). They just needed to re-adjust the relevant reward systems and the difficulty of some of the content (like heroic dungeons), along with the delivery of enough good content in major patches. Instead, they pretty much abandoned everything other than CMs and went full retard with the Facebook game.
