20-year-old World of Warcraft still seems to have plenty of spring in its step, according to Warcraft general manager John Hight. Its latest expansion, Dragonflight, has more subscribers now than it did at launch, and one intrepid content creator thinks they may have extrapolated roughly how many: over 7 million.

Woah. I didn’t realize WoW was still this popular.

Even the original EverQuest is still churning out expansion after expansion. The game’s going to keep going until they turn the lights off.

I mean, I guess if people are still playing, why would you stop, even if the content quality isn’t that great.

Content quality is very subjective, as in that’s just your opinion. Other players may think it’s good.
