World of Warcraft lead thinks the MMO will still be "kicking" in 10 years, but despite having ideas for "the very long run," Blizzard is currently focusing "on the next 5 years"

As long as enough people play and buy subscription each month, it will still be available. Look at Runescape, its also still kicking. I wonder if Runescape or WoW will die first. Imagine the last servers getting shutdown…

I’ve never compared those two games, but damn they’re both ancient eh?

EVE Online is a year older than WoW and it’s still going also, I still play it.

WoW honestly probably makes more money from cosmetics than subscriptions at this point.

Would be curious to see what would happen if they made it free to play
