When I posted the question back in November a few of you were still clinging to some form of misguided hope.

The folks here are pretty much ground zero target audience. So hands up- who still plays it?

Well golly, you sure seem open to alternative conclusions.

What are the current subscriber numbers, anyways?

i play it...wal-mart accidentally got runescape cards instead of WAR cards, so i am gonna have to make a 45 minute trip to get one, but i'm fine with that, as i have other business over there.

Personally I play it. It's a lot better than WoW is. Then again it's all a matter of opinion now isn't it?

-J.

I'd still be playing it if I wanted to burn alot of time on an MMO these days.

My wife and I still play it, her more than I. I play about as much as I play any other serious game anymore, which isn't much.

I've never played it, but it looks cool.

I still play. I haven't in a little while, due to my off days being taken up by car repairs and terrain building.

I listened to some people persuading me to play WAR (myself love how the White Lions look ) so decided to give it a try...

Stopped after a few weeks, didnt renew.

I know the game was supposed to be rough because its new blah blah , probably. But im not going to sugar coat it and say its good.

If it gets fixed , improved etc etc i'll be VERY HAPPY to give it another try. But before that... nope not going back :/

It's not world of warcraft, but it's hardly a failure. I think you need to stop posting this crap. The game has settled its population numbers and is doing fairly well.

I want to play, I'd just rather paint.

I liked it a lot, as did a bunch of my friends who previously played WoW.

I stopped playing mostly owing to time-constraints on my part, and the fact that the friends I was trying to start up with either out-paced me, or always failed to join in when I played.

It's only a "failure" if one thought that it would suddenly take up 99% of the MMORPG popularity and trample over the bones of WoW. Such line of thinking was/is ridiculous, however.

Oh it finally got out? Wow...I thought it was still in the development phase! GW must have totally forgotten to promote the crap out of that thing (which they should have done)

modquisition on:
This thread has been reported and I find, respectfully that I am in agreement with Shumagorath (oh the humanity). Closing this thread to avoid a flame war on a potential trolling beginning.

You are free to contact yakface if you are in disagreement.

I'm in disagreement! Oh yeah, that's right.

I don't know how any of you find the time to play these things in the first place. I barely have time for video games in general, much less for a game that you can't even "win". A better unwinnable game is Global Thermonuclear War; contact Joshua, AKA W.O.P.R., to play.
