It's the biggest/sharpest drop in WoW history. I used to go back to WoW once in a while, just to get back in a familiar surroundings, check out new content etc. But I've missed the last 2 expansions cause it is so different now. It's a completely different game, and it just moves further away from what a MMORPG is with each expansion.

I don't think calling it a MMO is even accurate anymore…

I think it's also because the WoW generation has now grown up. We don't have the time to commit to it any more. That and, despite a commendable effort to upgrade the game, it is showing its age obnoxiously.
What do you mean by that? By all accounts, it's still an MMO (heck, even with the subscriber loss, it's the most successful MMO out there).
Why is that? What would you consider it now?
