    You check the news,

    • The United States has just declared Iran it’s #1 enemy
    • Everyone is talking about Linkin Park
    • A massive hurricane has just killed hundreds of people and caused billions of dollars of damage in the southeastern US
    • People are excited for the new Ridley Scott Gladiator movie
    • A political candidate just yelled “Leeerrooyy Jenkins!” on live TV

    You sigh, boot up Runescape and put the new Smosh video on in the background.

    It is 2024

    I’m pretty sure WoW has more subs than it’s had in a while with the new xpac, but this isn’t going to hit the demographic they think it is. Or maybe they’re aiming for white suburban dads in their 30s.
