Knight Online

VS

Scum

Knight Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2002. Despite its age, it still retains a loyal fanbase, especially in Turkey and some other regions. However, as a legacy title, active player numbers have declined significantly from its peak, but it is still sustained by a niche but passionate community. Estimated daily active players are around 10,000–20,000 based on historical trends and continued operation of its official servers.

Scum is a multiplayer open-world survival game developed by Gamepires and originally entered Early Access in 2018. While it is not a full MMO, it supports servers with dozens of players (up to 64 per server). The game maintains a niche but dedicated following and is frequently updated; however, it has never reached large mainstream status. Based on long-term trends of similar survival games, its daily active player base is estimated to be in the low thousands, and this estimate would hold unless a major relaunch or expansion revitalized the player base.
