They're definitely antiquated, but from a business sense, doing so makes a ton of sense

The graphics are acceptable on a high end system (not great, but passable at least), and they will still run on a shit system. Upgrading the graphics would kill that huge range of systems that they run on. Until people start abandoning the game in droves, they have no reason at all to abandon the mid-low range graphics that have allowed them to be so universally accessible.
.....Yes, I know, that isn't much of debate, but I'm drunk, and that's as close as I can get to making a coherent argument right now.

So...how long before we can play WOW on our phones?

Given how crappy the graphics are, I'd say it's a data issue.

"Bad" is subjective. By any modern technical standard, however, they are inferior.

Baldur's Gate came out in 1998. You know what that means, right?
