Because the MMORPG market is mostly dead, with rare exceptions that still can't beat WoW and the rest is free2play pay2win gatcha skin fest fomo garbage.
I'm not surprised at all.
I thought Black Desert and GW2 were doing okay. I know two people who play one of each respectively.
As someone who's played a lot of GW2 over the past couple of years, I can confirm that it's still fantastic. It doesn't get anywhere near the amount of content that WoW gets, but it's on a good cadance these days and outside of buying expansions, is absolutely playable without spending a penny.
