What determines an MMO's true success is not really it's initial release numbers but it's staying power.

Or not.

By the way, vgchartz is not a reputable source for sales. The only reputable source for PC sales is the publisher itself.

these flamers are so desperate, you even had to flame this thread? Really? It's like you're angry because the game is selling, settle down little children.

Really, who cares how many copies it sold, it only means they spent a lot on advertising and the franchise has a large following to begin with. Him telling me how many copies swtor sold is irrelevant when it really comes down to individual preference.

Some people want this game to fail so badly that they will seriously cry when they'll finally understand that it won't.

There may be 50 addicted trolls in this forum, and they think they have "biiiig numberz" bumping each other up. Then when you look in game, you see tons of people having fun.

When you look at more neutral (and statistically relevant) environments, like twitter, the #swtor hashtag gets about a message every five second that goes from the positive to the enthusiastic.

ALL the reviews go from the positive to the stellar.

They don't even realize how few and isolated they are.

So he's not allowed to post that the game sold 2 million copies

Ok.

Nice!
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet,
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams

There are 1.7 million confirmed sales. The other 300k are a guess. An educated guess but still a guess. That is was I was getting at.
