    Massively Multiplayer - Minecraft beats SWTOR, I've seen more people running around on minecraft servers than I did in SWTOR.  AND I only played SWTOR first month when it was at its peak

    or perhaps the massively means the size of the world - again Minecraft wins

    Role Playing Game - Minecraft beats SWTOR.  In Minecraft I play out a role,  in SWTOR the game plays a ROLE at me, by telling the story of some American space Jock dude I happen to be remote controling.

    Therefore

    Minecraft is more of a MMORPG than swtor.

    I could say simmilar things about other instanced to hell and back glorified lobby games that pass as MMOs these days too. 

    I played swtor for a while, had quite a few different characters. While I had no performance issues, what I have quoted from you is why I left the game. This is a great point to be made about numerous recent mmorpgs.

    YOUR OWN STATS, clearly show that swtor spins a new instance at around 50 players. So how the hell are you seeing "over 100"

    It might be a good point to make, but not in this thread. This is stupid. If you guys are so b*tthurt over SWToR, go yell at people who are still playing SWToR because they are the ones who are paying for it to keep existing.

    I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

    I don't really care if an MMO can handle thousands of players, since I'll never meet them. I'd much prefer a Minecraft style MMO where you have 50-200 players who you know and actually may like.  I know there exists this romantic idea of a game that holds 'thousands' of players simultaneously...but what's the point if you only ever interact with 10% of them (if you're determined).
