    The reason is even with the TINY amount of new players you have wow STILL brings in more people. Facts are facts.

    The people who have left wow make up maybe 5% of the playerbase.

    Imagine getting punched in the face repeatedly for months, but suddenly the person that punches you says "Within 2 months, I'll switch that punch for a pat in the head, please don't leave me"

    You can be optimistic as much as you want.

    technically 99% left. Blizz said once 30% already stopped playing the game in start area.
    For any game the majority of the world chooses NOT to play it.

    Yes, fixing the shit that they had feedback for over a year on now shouldn't be praised, except you like to get broken systems every expansion that get fixed laterTM.

    Exactly. But we all know why exactly why people like Lora would call Final Fantasy "anime" and not WoW, despite both being super heavily similar in terms of things that popular culture considers "anime."

    It's pretty amazing to me that people still just the term "anime" as a pejorative. As if anime isn't a gigantically successful market in every possible regard.

    WoW is super anime. And that's fine. I love a lot of what it is that seems animeish lol.

    Weird how people seem to think unless you're playing a Korean mmorpg, any other game isn't 'anime.' Which is interesting considering people wanting to trot out a dictionary definition or assume someone is racist for suggesting MoP has heavy Asian themes lol

    Reminds me of when I was in junior high and saw some 13 year old boys lambasting other people for crying at something emotional, because they find it uncool or 'gay' or something. We're out of jr high, kids.

    It wouldn't hurt to have a FF14 news section like there is for Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm (which aren't even mmos). Problem is the wow junkies have such fragile egos that they can't bear to see any talk about other games, especially with wow and Blizzard itself being even deeper in the shitter than usual atm. I remember people going into full blizzard bootlick mode when they made forum sections for GW2 and FF14.

    You're getting exactly what you deserve.

    Check how many people are active on WoW threads and FF14 threads. People here are just much, much more interested in WoW, Overwatch/HoTS/Diablo news are just here by proximity. No need to vent your frustrations.

    it would be smart to do it like the other games along the top, which would generate more traffic to the site which in turn is more money. Of course, they would need to do an analysis to see if the traffic makes up for the expense of hiring someone to run that section, and other expenses.

    Judging from the banner of the site, it seems to be a WoW / HotS / OW fansite, or maybe more accurately, a blizzard fansite. It did use to cover other MMOs in the past though, like rift.

    One must say that the name is very weird though. Only 1 of the 3 main supported games covered are mmos. FFXIV should for sure be covered aswell if the site wants to be called mmo-champion, otherwise it should be renamed to blizzard-champion.

    so, a site for 2 1/2 dead games, nice.

    I'm not a particular fan of FFXIV either, but this is such an old man comment.

    Pretty sure MMO-C are paid by Blizzard to specifically do news on Blizzard games.

    Also, the difference between bikini taurens and catgirls is that the taurens aren't sexualized. Since you brought it up.

    Maybe when FFXIV starts getting more traffic and attention here than WoW.

    Until then, literally no reason. Surely there are dedicated fansites for FFXIV out there.

    Tell that to the streamers.

    I do believe you are wrong.

    The website is called mmo-champion. Not Blizzard champion. If they want to expand, there is nothing stopping them.

    Now, more realisticly, the thing is no data mining is allowed for FFXIV, which would make it difficult to cover news outside the official ones.

    The problem here is that like 10 years ago, @Boubuile had other mmo's news on front page, mostly SWOR, so nothing new really.

    EDIT:
    If people really want to now, i don't even visit main page.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime

    Anime (Japanese: アニメ, IPA: [aɲime] (About this soundlisten)) is hand-drawn and computer animation originating from Japan. In Japan and in Japanese, anime (a term derived from the English word animation) describes all animated works, regardless of style or origin. However, outside of Japan and in English, anime is colloquial for Japanese animation and refers specifically to animation produced in Japan.[1] Animation produced outside of Japan with similar style to Japanese animation is referred to as anime-influenced animation.
    Based on that definition I'd say yes, if it is in any way animation and it comes from Japan it's anime. I wouldn't personally call it that because I know 'anime' invokes certain idea's in peoples heads
