No, they have two million players, not two million subscribers. There's a very important difference there.
Remember that the game has a free trial now. Inflating that player count is very easy.
Weren't they suppose to be announcing active player numbers recently? Notice how that never happened? Gee, wonder why.
The idea that a failed MMO from 2010 could someone be a competitor in 2014 while requiring a subscription is just so laughable I don't even no where to start. And, yes, I've played 2.0. They removed everything interesting from their horrible launch and ripped off as much of World of Warcraft as they possibly could. It's still not worth playing and the lack of active subscriber numbers bears that out.
Wildstar is still in flux because they managed to scare a ton of their original player base away but they're now working hard on earning them back. Destiny has already entered that wonderful "wait until the next patch" period where it's flat-out not worth playing until updated. (And how I wish Destiny players would stop whining about that, but that's a different issue.)
I notice you didn't bother mentioning ArcheAge, which is the current "big MMO" that's drawing a ton of players away from other MMOs. It sounds like it's the MMO that people wanted TESO to be. Could be interesting or could flame out in a couple of months. We'll just have to wait and see.
