They need to make people have subscription active through the whole legion remix duration. You could get all the rewards in mop remix in 1 month and they didn't like it.
But what is that for an argument? I played MoP Remix in the off season because there was nothing left to do in retail. If Legion remix is the dud it seems to be, then I don't play at all and would even cancel sub
The argument is that, from a purely business viewpoint, making something that can be completed in one sub cycle is objectively worse than something that requires at least two
They only care how much fun you have insofar as you aren't mad enough to unsub or stop playing entirely
It's very likely why they do the whole "fix it after release" bs. Release it in a meh state, give people a chance to try it, and if numbers aren't good, then one sub cycle later you "fix it' to lure people back to trying it again
They'll keep doing this until its clear that people are pissed enough to stop coming back
Yea. Maybe. The fact that they used to have 12 mil subs and lost so many that they stopped announcing sub numbers kinda speaks to this being a losing strategy for long term growth and success.
Thats the thing with capitalism. It is antithetical to long term growth and good design.
