It's beating FFXI, which is really the only comparison that can possibly be made here.
Plus SE had to double server capacity, so it's clearly performing past expectations.
And know you that i was alerted to this post because someone reported it. It's not actionable in my opinion, but be wary.

aside from laughing at the banter up to here...
...didn't monster hunter have a subscription in japan? not quite an MMO but same basic idea and from a popular franchise. that might be comparable. how did that do?

Was this an attempt to spin DQX into a flop? If so, so you killed your own comparison.
|
Not everyone is out to get Nintendo.
MH did come to my mind because I faintly remember it having a subscirption for Japan, so you could possibly compare if you had access to the number of subscribers. Can't do a straight one as you can still play MH3 without fee and single player.

You're right, not everybody is - but he clearly was.
Anyways, Monster Hunter can be played and enjoyed without ever going online ever. DQX cannot. Even if it has multiplayer subscriptions, gamers will not stay on an MH for long because Capcom doesn't add new content - they just release standalone updates (G versions). Even still beyond multiplayer subscriptions, MH is NOT an MMO even in the slightest. So it's not a valid comparison.

Which is what I said in the second half of my post.
