10.2 is the lowest it's ever been. Usually the numbers rise and fall depending on what other games are released -- every time a big-title MMO comes out, WoW generally loses 1-2 million players to it (and then they come back).
If the figure stays around 10 mil (i.e. if SWTOR keeps them), I guess that'll be 'proof' that WoW is fading.
- duaneb 15y agoFading is, of course, very relative. A "fading" wow is still extremely strong.
- neworbit 15y agoSurely you don't mean "ever been"? I don't know how long it took them to get to ten million players in the first place but I'm imagining it wasn't on day one :) And semantic point aside, ten million users is still mighty impressive!
- kbutler 15y agoLooks like 2005-2008 to get 10 million users: http://users.telenet.be/mmodata/Charts/Subs-1.png http://users.telenet.be/mmodata/Charts/Subs-1.png (from http://mmodata.blogspot.com/ http://mmodata.blogspot.com/)
