It’s also a game with pretty much no endgame pve. People aren’t going to stick around for too long.

SWtOR started with around 2 million but that didn’t become the WoW killer we thought it might.
Came close, though.
Who knows how New World will end up in 1-2 years time.

New world was expected to be big, its pvp focus and wow still big on pve. Lots of players love wow because of pve, mainly raiding.

that wasnt much in comparison because MoP had around 12million player
swtor and wildstar had to loose their subscription system after 6months
i guess mobile games took over nowadays because 1million is much for a mmorpg now

Much simpler, I wanted to post in that existing thread but could not find it. So created a new one.
Pays to read the thread, you know.
the absolute peak of MoP was 10 million. Blizzard still officially released sub numbers back then
Oh I did, point stands, you just wanted to be special, why would you think this thread is pertinent? What did you want to gain from it?

I see but I believe the comparison to NW is still weak
??? Nothing. I just stumbled onto an interesting data point that indicated that the times when WoW was way ahead of others in the genre have ended and it is now competing among the pack.
Yes ofc nothing! What does it matter either way?
SW:Tor is still around, tho’ not a WoW killer… I doubt it ever wanted to be one. Obviously making enough money after all those years to keep the servers running and even time to time new expansions… 
2011 Dec it came out, that 10-year anniversary is only a few months away
Was a celever move, people love “free stuff”, and the illusion they can decide where and on what they want to spend their money
wow has less then 1 mill subs anyway …
Source please!
Why does it matter anyway? What are you looking to gain from it?
(Sorry, could not resist.)
belluar have made a video about it while back 
yea anyone’s playing mobile games nowadays
Exactly, it doesn’t matter, so why the sensationalist thread?
