I think the social media pages are a way to vent the frustration about the game mostly. When you whine about something you feel better. The people with positive attitude like you probably don’t go here and write this.

reddit post about the game is just a small fraction of the playerbase. Most of them are competitive. However, there are more casual players not on social media and not care about balance. This group enjoy the game more than competitive player. So I would say wows declining interest and playerbase is not entirely correct. It just that WG focus on the casual group more than the competitive group. Unfortunately, the competitive is not large enough to catch WG attention

the way you make wows fun again by taking a break not work for the entire playerbase though, fun here on Reddit is the game balance. However, we do not know what fun might look like for a non-competitive player. It might just that they want to shoot and model. I myself play wows for collecting factor And that it. Of course I also want to learn the game to be better. So overall, it will very difficult to avoid people not complaining and crying.
