    WoW was an abomination and started the trend of subscription gaming. It also ended the much beloved RTS series Warcraft, and Warcraft II.

    Edit: Say what you want, WoW popularized subscription models for games. Mainstreamed it.

      Ultima, everquest, anarchy online, star wars galaxies. All were popular MMOs with a subscription fee and predate world of warcraft.

      I don’t care about subscription models. It’s the scummy MTX that I don’t like (that and the gameplay changes).
