Then one of the keyboard lawyers should file a case against them for false claims.

That’s total accounts, if we want to go that way. Blizzard just placed the total number in a recent video. I’ll go find it.

27 million total over their lifetime. Wow was in the hundreds of millions before they stopped reporting.

Don’t know why people are afraid of competition. Competition is a good thing in the consumer market.

I want ff14 to be successful. Means wow devs have to actually try.

From the Blizzcon opening ceremony

WoW has 240 million players. (Using the same metric the OP is going by)

Using the OP’s math of total accounts created over the lifetime of the game.

Which is a silly metric.

People need to take an economist class.

How do you figure?

It’s a well known fact that wow really is dying and has less than a million players.

The OP is making a claim regarding FFXIV player count. The numbers they released are based off of total number of accounts created. Using that same measurement, wow has 240 million. That is obviously not the current active player count, for either game.

Time to take those shots and fill in those bingo squares everyone.

The actual number for ff14 is higher than 27million in that case but why does it matter if wow has more? Do you understand what competition does for consumers? And what monopolies do?

But since 2009 we were more than 10M players, I don’t know, despite all the mutual cooperativism that it shows in the gaming society, I still see it as very selfish for the entire community in the world, unlike WoW.

No matter, let’s hope their WoW trilogy takes old players back to the golden days, although that $90 pre-order doesn’t sound satisfactory.

It’s price gouging.
