The February 2022 launch of End of Dragons helped us land our strongest Q1 performance since the announcement of Heart of Thorns in 2015

That's hilarious to me. They never recovered from their bait and switch from chill casual open world to hardcore get fucked instanced challenging content up until EoD, and even then only barely. That's eight years! Of course, if you look at expansion box sales and not the numbers inbetween, then the sales spikes allow for an entirely different interpretation of what HoT did to the game.

I hope that ArenaNet understands, why WildStar (also ncsoft) died. I still think that by far the majority of GW2 (or rather MMO in general) players are not hardcore raiders but casual players who very much enjoy a chill open world experience with some optional challenges thrown in for good measure.
