Part of why I never got into WoW in the first place was that I can buy a brand-new blockbuster game every other month or 3 months for what I'm saving not playing WoW

WoW's $15/mo. A "brand-new blockbuster game" is $60. That's not every other month or every 3rd month in savings.

As for what it means, I believe it means more people are getting tired of the game, it's mechanics and/or setting. I stopped before Pandas because I feel they went too far dumbing the game down after BC.

There's not a lot of TV shows that managed to stay on the air for a decade. People just get tired of the old show. Same thing applies to MMOs.
