The vice president of Mythic Entertainment and the lead of Warhammer Online; Mark Jacobs spoke with Tracey John over at MTV.com regarding Age of Conan and also Hellgate London.

Things discussed were why Marc wanted to see Age of Conan succeed and also how he feels that they should have delayed the release of the game so it could have been polished further.


“If you look at the numbers, MMOs have the highest failure rates of any entertainment product,”
Jacobs said. Going all the way back 11 years to the release of “Ultima Online,” the first MMO to reach 100,000 subscribers, he said that there have only a been handful of successful MMOs compared to the number of them being developed.
