Except they lost around 6 million subs when WoW China had to close down due to licensing issues; so it's around 5 million now.

That pretty obvious, them lossing half their player-base.
But then again $15x5mil is still quite a lot of money per month.

I play mainly for the community and friends, but I have to admit, if my character sucked, I still wouldn't play it. I want to be able to do something with my friends on the MMO that beginners can't do, otherwise, it would be the same as just chatting on AIM/MSN/etc.

If they want to be killed by the Chinese Government.

I played WoW for fun till 30. Past that, i played out of obligation and habit, more like smoking than for fun.

When i hit 60, thats what i realized, i had absolutely NO FUN for the past 30 levels, and prompltly dropped WoW.

FFXI i played out of fun, but stopped when i could no longer bring myself to farm for hours just to buy the next suit of armor for my level
