What people want is all their consumes and buffs for no time investment. So they can complete MC as quickly as possible and stop playing.
The vast majority of people treat this game like a mobile game now:
It's basically the same play pattern as mobile games. Except instead of a scheduled 'weekly event', players self organise into guilds to run weekly raids.
Players are even re-creating the mobile monetisation strategies that everyone on Reddit seems to hate on.
Mobile games are often designed with a 'End game grinding loop' like I described above where the end game players log in every few days to complete events for power progression. But before you get there, you often need to play the game for a while to level up and reach those end game events. Or you can buy various microtransactions to speed that process up.
In Classic we have Hordes of Mage boosters providing exactly the same service. You don't want to actually level and just jump straight to the end game? Just pay up and you can.
