Warcraft's game director expects server populations to drop to a tenth or less of today's mass influx.
Mark Rubin, the lead designer of Ubisoft’s now-dead free-to-play shooter XDefiant, has left the games industry following his project’s death.
So much wrong with Xdefiant. At one point they started using the worst ideas for their game and FPS fans saw it in the previews.
"We had other issues though as well that we tried to be transparent about. For one we had crippling tech debt using an engine that wasn’t designed for what we were doing...Another issue we had was having the right resources to make content for the game."

Im waiting cause the price to subscribe is alot more than it used to be...ridiculous.
Never played WoW, but decided to throw $15 at this and see what the hype was about. I've been loving it.

Been looking at it, personally will just stick with FFXIV. It's the only true mmo I actually enjoy. Think they're close to the same price for sub? Think it was 12 for FF. (I buy a bunch 1 time), Maybe one month I'd pay and give it a go
"You think you do but you don't" and this guy is now running Blizzard lol. Probably relieved to see it do well, they needed the subscribers going by how well BFA has been doing.
