World of Warcraft Achieves New Milestone with Two Million Paying Subscribers is the press release announcing a new subscription threshold achieved by Blizzard's MMORPG, with further breakthroughs expected when the game launches in China:

World of Warcraft recently surpassed the two million mark for paying subscribers. Already the largest MMO in both North America and Europe, Blizzard expects to see even greater growth with the recent commercial launch in China on June 7, 2005. Anticipation for World of Warcraft was already at an all-time high in China, with peak concurrency during the open beta test topping 500,000 players, nearly equal to World of Warcraft's peak concurrency in all three current markets combined. Blizzard expects to see the new mark of two million subscribers shattered quickly with the arrival of players from China in the coming weeks.

I've played Ultima Online, Meridian 59, Asheron's Call 1 & 2, Everquest, Dark Age of Camelot, Anarchy Online, Magic: The Gathering online, Star Wars: Galaxies and more and of all these World of Warcraft has been probably one of the best experiences thus far.

Okay, holy shit that is just plain scary. Do you even know what sunlight is?

Yeah that does sound humorous. No that's like spread over a span of like 9 years. 1996 (Meridian 59) all the way up to today (WOW). I've got a lot of a MMORPG experience under my belt. I totally understand and in many ways agree with all of your posts about boredom setting in after 3-6 months, and I agree. Personally my passion is PVP, and more specifically Alterac Valley BG. I'd addicted to WOW's PVP system, albeit there's some classes that needed to be totally tweaked to truly balance in PVP but for the most I'm enjoying myself. I guess that's all anyone can expect from any MMORPG; free or otherwise.

The most exercise some people get is jumping to conclusions.
