As with most enterprise offerings: If you have to ask it's not for you

At that point only people with expensive telephoto lens would be able to see anything.

but what happens when Trump decides in 6 months to stop shipping engines and engine parts and software updates and encryption keys

Soon we'll return to what was when Microsoft had a separate Windows NT 4 High Encryption release

Web engine development is more costly than even OS development

Unfortunately, many applications that used to be desktop applications in the past are now programs that run in the web browser. It doesn't matter anymore if they are a lot less effective than being native.

we’re talking costs that often run into the hundreds of millions per year – it’s virtually impossible to fund unless you’re a giant

That is the problem - the web needs to be a lot simpler, browser development should cost fractions of that. It got unnecessarily, absurdly complex.

WoW was just such a massive phenomenon (and still is, tbh), basically everyone at least knew about it, and for so many people it basically became more of a second life than second life (old people joke), massively changing the life of these people (me being a part of it). It was basically the place where social outcasts could be social, which was huge. For me, and many others, it was all the friends they had.

Its legacy now lives on in FFXIV.
