SirBruce is back from Austin Game Conference with an interesting report<\/a> and more subscription numbers:<\/p>\n

– Asheron Call 1 – 37,000
\n– Asheron Call 2 – 18,000
\n– Ultima Online – 165,000 – 170,000 <\/i>(ahah!)
\n– Star Wars Galaxies – 250,000 – 300,000<\/i><\/p>\n

As I commented I’m so glad about the numbers. Watching UO sinking down makes me feel optimist. AC1+2 together don’t even reach the numbers of Eve-Online and I still wonder why Turbine has still relevance on this genre considering those awful results. SWG is even more laughable. One of the conferences was “Designing Within a License” with Rich Vogel of SOE representing Star Wars. Yeah, with a result right above DAoC. Those peoples should learn, open their ears, not teach. And the fun isn’t over because the other two were Vijay Lakshman of Turbine representing D&D and Middle Earth, Chris McKibbin of Perpetual Entertainement representing the new Star Trek MMO.<\/p>\n

The first from a game that has just begun the development, the second for a game that isn’t even on the paper.<\/p>\n

The industry is surely in good hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
