I think the game is going to be a hit, and will be immensely profitable, but I don't think anything will ever reach WoW numbers again. WoW's success is like Harry Potter, nobody is going to recreate that no matter how much they try.Warsydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14167250810061082203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454538456673925439.post-55988293788354455172011-12-05T18:22:59.071-08:002011-12-05T18:22:59.071-08:00WoW is far from dead.

With 8+ millions subscriptions, how can that be called dead? so what if it has declined in number, the fact that so many still play it, is reason enough to say that it is alive and kicking. <br />Obviously as games age they lose dynamic and feeling, but Blizzard is doing its best to not just stay true to the WoW feel, but to try and take it on a direction that will continue to lure in the masses. <br />SWTOR is one of the most promising MMO's to come out in many years. It has a refereshing approach to play style albeit still using the tank, healz and dps methodology, but also is feeding off the Star Wars franchise, which is massive in its own right. <br />The real question is will it be a hit for as long as WoW has and end up with the same subscription base? After a couple of years, running around with a light saber and hand gun, or using the force is going to get pretty darn old.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454538456673925439.post-74904634781989291862011-12-05T09:45:10.558-08:002011-12-05T09:45:10.558-08:00WOW is dead....It has been for some time.

WOW has been a great game and had a great run, but it is time for them to put up or shut up by releasing a NEW MMO. SWG failed due to bad decisions and opened the door for WOW which was completely different than SWG. SWTOR takes the failings of WOW and makes many improvements. Maybe Blizzard should have listened to the customer base rather than be greedy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454538456673925439.post-8577897014792337892011-12-05T08:15:36.495-08:002011-12-05T08:15:36.495-08:00I cancelled my WOW subscription in anticipation of...I cancelled my WOW subscription in anticipation of SWTOR release. I like many others want to play a game, but only want to pay for one at a time. SWTOR has my money for the near future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
