None of the people replying, the OP included, have said the game is dying or a sinking ship. The title is a reference to
comments made by Japanese players with this thread being a discussion of their opinions.
Rubbish. The graph clearly shows that ShB had a steady player population which grew over time. ShB's late patches had more people playing than the launch hype spike. The very end-of-expansion content draught had the same numbers as the launch spike. ShB's numbers absolutely did not tank within the first 2 months. It's first dip was only 4 months in and even then the difference isn't as staggering as we see in EW or DT.
