minus-squareRancor_Tangerine@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·3 天前In 2009 RuneScape had ~200,000 daily players. WoW had ~5.5 million. Current estimates are RuneScape at ~150,000 and I’m being generous. WoW is at ~1.1 million. I don’t like WoW either, but it’s the king for a reason. That reason is they paid addiction specialists to tune drop rates and combat to make children addicted to their product.
