hmm, which part of the 10 million world wide players makes this a "dieing" game? Or do you mean dead to you? Not that you would ever try to push your personal views and pass them off as the right way? No way, not here on the VN.
Maybe the fact there were 14mil before Cata
The bulk of subs are somewhere in asia that nobody has ever cared about. They don't have the same subscription structure and don't even have cata. The game isn't the same for them in a lot of ways due to legal/political BS.
I'd imagine that NA/typical subs are down too since no game can keep up the amazing run WoW has enjoyed forever. 5+ years of the same game (with many players playing the crap out of it) eventually leads to some burnout and attrition.
I personally think cata was a weak expansion, crushing casual raiding was a completely stupid idea (raiding went from accessible to many in wotlk to hardcore only in cata), gutting core systems added nothing and made the game more superficial, repeating WOTLK (rep grinds, emblem grinds, emblem revamps) verbatim without adding anything fresh while crushing other elements of the game is weak, and so on.
GC and the b-team are running the game into the ground, it's just that it takes a while to see noticeable impact on such a behemoth.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that
