We lost 70% of our player base half a year in

Many of my friends are taking breaks as well, but it's vacation season. I'll be offline almost all next week because I'll be in Spain.

I heard Asmongold was going to start playing again, so maybe there will be a short influx of people following him around or whatever. Maybe some threads about it too, I guess.

Try February 2014 (3577 players) and "last 30 days" (25278 players). We're good.

Lol, cant wait for new topics about everything he does XD
Where suddenly old stuff we already did is treated new and exciting.

People also only largely play this game for the story, which I argue accounts for a lot of the loss.

All white knights can do is describe real facts and statistics as "doomsaying".

Calls me a White Knight for saying the Game is doing fine....an Objective Fact that Contradicts your Statistics and Proves your Facts Wrong.
Try pulling Global Numbers next time, and not Steam Numbers. You might have a better argument Doomsayer.

Good lord this is like a million New World threads on Steam analytics. Yeesh

NOT in 7.0, NOT in 8.0, it needs to happen THIS EXPANSION or you WILL lose the remaining player base.

Ok, this is a bit dramatic. The game has issues but it will never completely die.

but it will never completely die

I mean, it will eventually. That's inevitable. But we've probably got a while.

steam only accounts for maybe 15% of the community

Data point is still a data point. Shouldn't simply be dismissed outright.
