So the trading post being disabled for so long has likely dealt a rather huge blow.
For interest as of 3 days ago I started tracking how AP servers were looking at 4pm and 10pm for Delos and Sutekh to watch the slow bleed in player numbers.
From 6-8 Dec AP southeast was hitting from 5200-5000, losing a few dozen peak each day.
I think a lot of forum dwellers enjoy tormenting the white knights more tbh
Its funny reading one excuse after another about how the game will be good it just needs a few months, then a half a year, then a year and by 2023 it just needs a decade to be good.
Played them all… FFXIV is probably the backup plan for when NW runs its course with me… but the rest… sigh.,. if only they were better. I did have high hopes for Season 5 of Last Oasis as i do like the raw pvp`erness that comes with that game as a low geared player with skill can dominate those with high gear etc. But… devs…shit the bed.
Weirdly enough Crowfall and NW pvp were very close to one another in a lot of ways, but again devs ambitions vs abilities eventually knifed that one too.
Only real horizon to look at the moment is this fairy tale called Ashes of Creation but until then… if anyone needs me i’ll be shooting the Yeti… i mean…the Winter boss over and over so i can get free Ward gear that apparently is unattainable due to checks notes …yes… dupes, economy and why FSS fixes these issues.
WoW is P2W though and I doubt the AP grind will be gone for long. Now I get people go back to the mcdonalds because the mcrib is back, just saying, no offense.
