I think World of Warcraft's age is it's biggest detriment. It has so much to do that you're put into a position where you kind of don't know where to even begin. Couple that with the fact that they are trying to railroad you into the current content as fast as possible, it feels overwhelming. The world I left when I stopped playing is so much different than the world that exists today. I can't imagine a new player jumping in and enjoying themselves fully when they have like twenty years of history to try and read up on.
When they did that anniversary event a while back with the huge festival outside of Caverns of Time I was so fucking lost I had to go to wowg to try and a qrd on some of the shit I was seeing, like Mankrik and his new wife.
