Pathfinder: Kingmaker

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.

Pathfinder: Kingmaker is a single-player tactical RPG released in 2018 by Owlcat Games and published by Deep Silver. While it was well-received and has a loyal fanbase, it is not an MMO, and its playerbase has declined over time since release. Estimated active daily players are low, likely a few hundred globally, primarily from new players and ongoing interest in the Pathfinder franchise.
