MMORPGs by the numbers

MMOGCHART.COM tracks subscriber numbers for MMORPGs. It’s kind of interesting to look at — in particular, related to CoX, it’s odd to see spelled out something that’s So Big in My Life is so trivial, subscriber-wise, in the MMORPG world. (Reminds me of my taste in TV shows.)
Granted, CoX is a top tier game, but compared to WOW, Everquest, Lineage I or II, Final Fantasy, or RuneScape, the subscriber base is a drop in the bucket. Or, put another way, we’re at 1.4% of the overall MMORPG subscriber world, tucked between Ultima Online and Star Wars Galaxies.
Interesting stuff.

  2. Millions of people voted for …
    *Shrug* I’m happy with what we’re doing, and who we’re doing it with. God knows I don’t run with the majority in any of my other media choices — why should I in this?
