PlanetSide 2

Achaea, Dreams of Divine Lands is a classic text-based MUD released in 1997 and maintained by Iron Realms Entertainment. While once popular, active daily player counts for text MUDs have generally decreased over time, with niche but devoted communities remaining. As a persistent, open-world roleplaying game, it's a true MMO, but its DAP is likely in the low hundreds at most due to its age and genre.

PlanetSide 2 is a large-scale MMOFPS released in 2012 by Daybreak Game Company. Its unique, persistent world and battles with hundreds of players make it a niche but enduring title. Active support and a tight community keep player numbers modest but steady, especially considering its age. Estimates put daily active players in the low thousands, largely split across a few servers.
