I used to play WoW, I have a level 70 Warrior toon, but I started late and didn't really do much of the vanilla or TBC raids. I have GW2 and I've tried literally every other MMORPG, and I keep thinking about WoW. Is it worth it for me to go back to WoW now, with it on the decline?
Is it worth it to start playing WoW now?

There are still plenty of people playing so I wouldn't let that deter you. If you like MMO's, WoW is still the best.

I have played since '05 with a few breaks here and there but WOW is the best in my opinion and is still fun as hell to play.

It's always worth coming back if you haven't played in a long time. WoW is still one of the top MMO's out there.

I think it's reasonable to expect that WOW will be around for many more years.
Sure, they'll wind up merging servers like crazy as the numbers dwindle, but right now they've still got what, 6 MILLION subscribers? That's down about 50% from five years ago? That's a lot! Even if 50% of those quit in the next five years, there's still more than enough to keep the game alive.
Not to mention the inevitable percentage of casual players that will perk up and come back temporarily whenever a new expansion is released.
Plenty of time to play and make friends and have fun, IMO.

Yeah and I also think that when the numbers drop more Blizz might go the route of Star Wars and make it free to play generally but only make you subscribe to get good stuff.

wow is totally worth it. Don't worry if you never got to do any old raids. I didn't do my first raid until pandaria. Plus when you buy Warlords of Draenor you get a free lvl 90 character, so you can immediately start playing the expansion. I'd say just go for it, I've been playing like crazy lately.I used to play WoW, I have a level 70 Warrior toon, but I started late and didn't really do much of the vanilla or TBC raids.
