ArcheAge

Rose Online is a classic anime-themed MMORPG that originally launched in the mid-2000s and was revived by Rednim Games and Gravity Interactive. The game had a niche but passionate community, but due to its age (over 10 years since the 2012 re-release) and lack of major recent updates or mainstream attention, the active daily player base is low, likely around 1,000–2,000. Still, as an old-school MMO, it maintains small, dedicated servers.

ArcheAge is a well-known sandbox MMORPG launched in 2013. While it initially drew strong interest due to its open world and sandbox systems, its player base has shrunk over the years, in part due to controversial monetization decisions and competition. Recent trends and community figures suggest the game retains a loyal but relatively small population, with most activity centered in a few regions. It is clearly an MMO based on its persistent world and large-scale multiplayer interaction.
