it’s so weird to me that it sounds like they might shut down servers later. From what I heard, the new expansion was surprisingly well received. The past few days it peaked at greater than 40K concurrent players each day. surely the servers can pay for itself?

I think this is due to the broader “move towards AI”, gaming was big around COVID, now it’s in massive decline, at least in terms of employment and investment opportunities, if not actual revenues.
