I don’t think Blizzard wants us to watch World of Warcraft’s subscription numbers continue to shrink.

Activision Blizzard revealed today that its popular MMO (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) now has 5.5 million monthly subscribers paying around $15 every 30 days, in its last report of this number. This is a slight drop from the 5.6 million it reported in August. This could mean that while the bleeding isn’t stopping, it might be leveling out.
