| Samus Aran said: Seriously when everyone is calculating the profit made from WoW they do 10000000 times 15, but now half of their userbase only counts for 15%? WoW makes a lot less profit then than everyone says. Either that or you're talking bullshit. And go learn economy mate, a 15% drop profit wise is never a good thing. |
I dunno who does 10m x 15, but that's retarded for a large number of reasons. For instance, many players buy multiple months at once which drops the price below 15, for another they make nothing near $15 us per month per account in Asia. The 15% was a guess, but I would bet my house it's not more than %20. And yes, if people assume WOW makes $15 x 10m, then it makes a lot less profit than they say.
And yes, I know that a %15 drop in profit is not a good thing, but let's be serious. This is a game in its 5th or 6 year that only slows down for technical shit like this. Furthermore, it is published by the company who puts out Guitar Hero, a huge cash cow, and is on the cusp of releasing two games that will sell a disturbing amount of copies. It takes a lot more than a slowdown in the most popular MMO to make them "totally fucked."
