WoW did set out to be massively popular with a gameplay style that encouraged daily play.
PUBG lucked into the popularity by getting the scale and pacing correct for a large audience.
Both also seemed to benefit from server issues causing an 'exclusive' thing that means people lined up to get in during peak hours. Popularity can breed popularity, especially when the games are fun.
