How would you fix it?
Is it even fixable?
Or perhaps a more daring conclusion, has it survived longer than it should have?

Metzen was an incompetent idiot but it all went into shit since he left. Bring him back and remove all trooners and diversity hires and game can still become decent.
Bring back 10 man raiding.
>has it survived longer than it should have?
Yes. The established setting has been mined out. The legion is defeated so now they have to make shit up like the Jailer who was secretly behind everything. Oh but the jailer was really just trying to stop an EVEN GREATER THREAT!!!
It's an 18 year old game on life support because the devs don't want to admit they'll never be able to build a playerbase this large again.
It is unsalvageable and has been for over a decade.
No.
It's almost a 20 year old game.
Nothing will bring the magic back for you. It's over.
MMO's as a genre are also dead thanks to the internet and standardization. MMO's will never have that sense of wonder and mystery because you know everything there is to know about the game years before it even comes out.
When you first played WoW, you were likely completely clueless and had no idea about anything.
That image needs to have the woman in the picture that was also doing the mogging
Dating sim side content with hundreds of npcs of varying personalities/races/etc.
It ran it's course, just let it die.
Remove LFR and Mythic raiding, leaving only Normal and Heroic. Tune them properly. Allow 10 man raiding. Add master looter back to the game. Make gear completely deterministic. Remove loot lockouts on any obsolete raids. Fire all the writers and hire literally anyone else.
Basically this. Literally zero reasons to play otherwise.
Forgot the most important thing.
Fire Hazzikostas, how the fuck is he still in charge?
It's ogre, especially since they decided to not do Classic+. Let it die, make a new game, and give private servers more autonomy.
He’s gotten fat as fuck and he looks like he hasn’t slept in ages. Looking grim.
WoW 2 with a lore reset of some kind. They really missed an opportunity for this with Legion. The Legion should have won and the players could have been transported via some deus ex machina to a brand new world that would be, at least temporarily, unknown to the Legion. New start, new things to do, new races, new classes...and an excuse to completely change all the systems in WoW that they can't remove because players have certain expectations after playing with the systems for years.
burn it all down
start WoW 2 at the end of vanilla
do NOT go to outland until 3 expansions in
ditch cataclysm
Cataclysm should have just been WoW 2. That’s essentially what it was anyways.
This will be just a guild war 2 situation.
Fuck masterloot, for every good guild there’s 20 that’s full of lil bitches
wow2 will literally mot happen in the next 10 years.
I don't know anything about Guild Wars, but I think if the alternative is WoW in its current state then a reset isn't going to be worse. Not that it matters because the chance came and went several times.
>drop items in PvP
>remove all the retarded QoL shit
>remove all the loot tread mill shit
