It's an annual thing. First it was WoW, and then Guild Wars, and then Rift, and then Everquest II, and now Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Heck, Everquest is STILL going on, even after 12 years strong.

No one ever thought RIFT was going to ammount to anything and it never has.

Well it's amounted to about as much as FFXI has, they had the same peak subscribers, and it's only in it's first year.

Most do that, WoW clones for WoW players an what-not.

ffxi doesn't need a complete makeover. more expansions, more areas, more content, more mission lines. pleeeeeeease :< the only reason ps2 has to go is spacial limitations, but kick it to the curb!

Missing the point. The point is that someone will go something like, "FFXI is doomed because X game is coming out unless SE does Y.".

Actually no, they don't. Warhammer, for example, has a subscriber base significantly lower than FFXI's, as does Age of Conan, and several others.

Also, the most recent numbers I heard for Rift is one-million subscribers, so actually Rift is the most successful MMO to be released in the last five years. I think that ought to count for something.
