They saw more poorly-received design decisions and significantly controversial story beats in a game whose story was already divisive to begin with. The release of the patch proved to be TheLastStraw, causing many to flock over to ''XIV''. Further fueling the player migrations were prominent ''[=WoW=]'' streamers and content creators who decided to try the game, as well the state of California's lawsuit against Activision Blizzard over workplace practices.

** Another in-game example may have been one done unintentionally because of a GoodBadBug: occasionally, a mob will be added that's mistagged as a tameable beast for hunters, whenever this happens Blizzard will usually fix the error, but let anyone who already tamed it keep the pet as-is as a GrandfatherClause. The exception was a Worgen in Howling Fjord who was disguised as a normal wolf, revealed during its relevant quest, who could be tamed by a very obtuse series of exploits - the fact that this was the ''only'' unintended tame in the game's history that Blizzard went out of their way to correct put Worgen on a lot of players' radars, since it smelled like avoiding the UnfortunateImplications of having a player race being "Tameable" in any capacity like an animal.

** ''Battle for Azeroth'' recycles elements of ''Cataclysm''[='s=] plot with the player allying with a former faction leader (Magni/Thrall) to stabilize Azeroth when the planet is critically damaged by a major antagonist (Sargeras/Deathwing) and ''Mists of Pandaria'''s plot with the Alliance-Horde war being reignited following the unprovoked destruction of an Alliance city (Teldrassil/Theramore) and the Horde's leaders banding against their current Warchief (Sylvanas/Garrosh) who resorts to using eldritch power. The last similarity has received some flak after [[LyingCreator players were told that Sylvanas' story]] ''[[LyingCreator wouldn't]]'' [[LyingCreator fall to this trope]].
