    I am in the belief that there can be more than one MMO and has been for the last 200 years, this wow-killer mentality is just putting on your fail shoes on in the morning.

    Very well said. It's not a zero-sum game. Remember when WoW launched and the biggest US mmo had about 800k subs? Yeah.
    Now playing: WoW (Garona)

    This this this.

    WoW was the first to successfully manage, maintain and launch... stress "successfully". The only thing that will "kill" off WoW will be Blizzard when they retire it.

    As the game as been out, more and more ideas pop up and other MMOs are born. As those other games launch, they will pull some % of subscribers from the original giant, yes. As more MMOs launch (well), slowly chipping away at the subscriber base of WoW, new players will begin playing MMOs. New to SWToR. New to Aion. New to Rift... LoToRo, GuildWars, AoC, Eve.. etc etc.

    WoW wont "die" just because of more competition... at the most it will eventually get knocked down to an equal level of some of the others, at best... yet still more likely to always remain the MMO with the most number of subs. Just depends on what the kiddies want...

    To use their slogan. "whats your game?" is very fitting.
