haha, ya. some people i work with have decided to play rift, one of whom especially hates wow for some reason. every couple of weeks he'll brag to me about how "wow's numbers are falling" and "wow's going to die soon just like everquest and final fantasy." but really, a dip from 12m to 11.4m??? while it is still a rather significant revenue loss for blizz, it's still way and beyond the level of subscribers for any other game out there. i don't see blizz giving up their crown to anyone for many years to come.

@Pumabackup: Your coworker has a highly misguided view on things that are dying. Everquest and Final Fantasy are still running. Heck even Ultima Online all the way from 1997 is still chugging along. I don't think WoW will be going anywhere for a long time.
