You pissed me off enough to quit towards the end of the current iteration, but I've always admired your business model and concept. Don't get (much more) big-headed, though

Nice, that's quite a success considering how different the game is when it comes to way of playing and so on. Must say it proves that not all players want the same things over and over. Keep going ANet, I hope GW2 also turns out be equally good.

My respects for Anet keeps growing, just had a nice conversation with a GM, and now this. Incredible :). And don't forget, the number probably lies higher, Australia and Africa aren't counted in the 5 million players. And I have a few people from Saudi-Arabia in my guild, and some Australians. You know it, the best way to realize your dreams is waking up and start moving, never lose hope and always keep up.
