A Few Newsflashes

I was writing something else but here are a few pieces of news from around the Blogosphere:

• The Old Republic has 1.7 million new accounts since they went F2P.  Subs are steady at 550 thousand or so, but profits are up for the game.
• WoW lost 1.3 million subs since Q4 2012.  The bleeding has been most prevalent in Asia, but all regions lost subs.
• RIFT just announced it's going F2P.  Not sure about the details yet, but they are going F2P June 12th.
• Neverwinter has generated a huge amount of interest, but you knew that, right?
