Remember: the forums represent a tiny, loud minority

[Stormpeaks]

Most people playing the game don't use the official forums. They use Discord, Reddit, or Twitter.

Less than 1% of players use the forums, and of that, even less still are the ones who use the forums regularly.

The negative Nancys on the forums are a Tiny, Loud minority. They are here just to complain and don't reflect the 20 million players who still enjoy the game.

When you hit that bong a little bit too hard, this is what you get people, stay safe out there

Mix that with copium and you get a bad case of Subatomic

I mean.. its close to 20m over a 30 day period..

But lets be real 100k online is about the average the game gets, anything thinking it is more is fully huffing that copium.

The twelve only know what goes on in an accursed FFXIV centered facebook group. But this is probably accurate

You have to be absolutely insane to believe this game has 20mil active players. WoW in its prime had like.. 24mil? And that was during a time where MMOs were actually popular. Luckybencho lists like what, 1,5mil active characters? And that includes alts.

yeah no, those numbers are literally impossible to even fit properly in this game, but it is at around 1.5 mil as you said, nowhere near 20 mil, that is some gigantic copium lmao

copium

That word.

It does not mean, what you think it means......

Surely you would know what copium is considering how much you use it

Yeah, I wanna know the source of these stats and the context around them. 107k players in the past hour seems about right. Historically that extrapolates to about a million subscribers which is a completely believable number. But 20m active players if separate accounts would be completely insane. WoW peaks in wotlk at 10 or 12m subscribers and as best as I know this game has never come remotely close to that. Or any other MMO for that matter actually. Barring weird accounting with Lineage 1 anyway.
