Comment on WoW guild uses exploits to get world 'first' on new raid, gets banned, puts its name backwards and does it again

  I genuinely didn’t know it was still big. Everyone I know who played it quit ten years ago and expansion launches no longer hit my feeds.

  It’s a failed attempt at minimizing. Lots of people reply like that.

    what makes wow not a live service game? aren’t all MMOs by definition live service?

      I mean, yeah. Just don’t tend not to lump the older ones in it because of how awful the practice has become.

    What about FF14 or Guild Wars 2? Don’t they count as pre-live service MMORPGs, too?

    I was actually surprised to see Ultima Online is still up and active recently. It must have a pretty decent sized population for EA not to shut down and repurpose the servers for Battlefield or something.
