These free MMO's really crack me up, they count everyone who ever registered with them as if that is even close to the number of people who actually play the game. Sorry soon as you say free to play any numbers you put forth are meaningless. So pretty funny that they claim to be a major MMO when no one has even heard of them. Pretty good job of disinformation. |

This game is actually a lot of fun. It was the first mmorpg that I played. I got to say I made a ton of friends and the community and economy was great. I am still tempted to play it again. The grind is just a little bad to put it nicely. And I always hated that the mobs would not respawn if you stand near where they spawn. |

Originally posted by Ozmodan It's a *very* popular game in some European countries (esp. Germany, Poland, Sweden) and South America. In fact, I know more people playing Tibia (or Runescape, for that matter) than WoW. Why? I played it, and it sucks, but it works on a 386 computer from 1990 and is free. Also, the game is continuosly running since 1997 and has additional appeal due to ruleset similiar to that of Ultima Online (e.g. open PvP with looting). As for the numbers, you're wrong, or didn't bother to read the whole thing. 100,000 is the number of premium (paid) accounts they got. The number of registered accounts is in millions, though they themselves say there's about 250,000 active free+paid accounts. Just go to their damn site and see how many servers they got, with how many people. Login to one of them. You can even see who's got a paying account in-game. It's not even peak yet and there's 50,000 players online at this very moment.
