Depends on your definition of successful. Going by players definition vs the companies definition you'll get wildly varying results.


There's a lot of mmos that are successful from a purely business standpoint because they make/made a poo poo ton of money.

From a player perspective I think there's been some great ones that turned to poo poo very fast but created enjoyable memories along the way.

In terms of people still playing and having an active community there's a lot.

30 player lobbies, has been extremely successful with its online component.

I don't think destiny, gta v, or the division should be considered mmos though.
