It would be nice to see another successful game hit the market. I don't care if it the new biggest game on the market or not as long as it isn't shedding hundreds of thousands of players and closing half of its servers 6 months after release.

Originally posted by Papadam Exactly. The 3.5 million number is false and I have done the math. It is closer to 1.5 million and I firmly believe it was a typo that the Internet ran with and now everyone believes. Want proof? That article right there. WIth Aion releasing in the West, if it had 3.5 million subs, it would be a major marketing tool and we would see the numbers everywhere with official press releases and the like. NC Soft would claim that number in a heartbeat if it was accurate. But why release lower official numbers when the Internet buzz number is higher. :) |

90% of the world is ignorant.. The other 10% just don''t give a fuck.. |
I'll never understand why you people care so much about numbers of accounts or people playing certain games...

I think they should let a panel of people count both WoW's and Aion's sub numbers so this way we don't have typos on the internet and we can actually for once find out the real numbers. Though honestly, I could care less how many subs WoW or Aion has. |

Because they all flock to the game that has the most subs. |

Games, above all else, are about fun. MMORPG's are no different. If you are not having fun, find something else to do with your time and money and stop your bitchin. |

3.5 M is nothing and also you can't count people in China since they don't pay by the month, they pay by the hours. They could just pay once then stop playing. I know that because I was playing on Chinese server.
I plan to play NA version, so I think that I have a pretty fair view of the game, I am neither troll nor fanboi. There are something I hate about Aion and there are some I love about it. No game is perfect. I would give Aion a 7/10, so it's an OK game to me. |

TBH a lot of peopel are stil ltrying to find a game that will be the "legendary wow killer" Sorry to say this but Aion just ain't one of them. The only "WoW killer" that i think has a chance even is Blizzard's new IP MMO that they are developing.

This is bound to happen to virtually every game now (save for some of the Asian games). The genre has grown to the point where there are always a few hundred thousand people willing to switch to the next big release to see if it will capture them. It won't, they move on, doom and gloom is then posted all over the internet about the game sucks and will be dead in 6 months. |

Even those of us that do not believe the numbers know that WOW has the most subs. It has to be true, i have internet links. |
