No, XI had 750k+ people with 2 million+ characters at peak, it evened out to 500k for numerous years then started to drop off and evened out to 250-400k in recent years, now it's probably lower than that but the baseline for XI was 500k while it topped off 750k+, 500k was always the number thrown around because it was people's estimates before SE started releasing census data.

XIV had 650k at the start then dropped of significantly, that's why I'm saying it'll be amazing if it gets even half as successful as XI did if people count subs as success, and being supported in china will have quite the jump in sub numbers.
