What data do you want me to provide? Google searches showing when one game was released and when it was added to the steam launcher? My point was that the data you were giving wasn’t accurate because it gathered information AFTER the games initial launch, meaning it has ZERO bearing on the % drop a month after release. You’ve agreed with me on this, so not sure why your demanding data to back up what you’re agreeing with.
Elder Scrolls Online
Initial release under their own launcher: April 4th 2014
Steam launcher release where steamcharts started tracking them: July 21st 2014
3 and a half month difference
Final Fantasy XIV RR
Initial release under their own launcher: August 27th, 2013
Steam launcher release where steamcharts started tracking them: February 14th, 2014
nearly 6 month difference
EVE Online
Initial release under their own launcher: May 6th, 2003
Steam launcher release: March 2008
Started being tracked on steamcharts: July 2012
9 year difference…
Theres yoru data for that.
Lets see…Forbes isn’t a gaming company, you agreed with me on that…
Path of exiles being a mmorpg and not an arpg…well, Path of Exile First line of text says "Path of Exile is an online Action RPG set in the dark fantasy world of Wraeclast. " so you’re mistaken about that…the eso comment you agreed with me, so not sure why your arguing with me on that…
Where are YOUR data sets confirming about MMORPG losing more population than any type of game? Forbes doesn’t have access to your data set?
The only one I heard of was big titles having mass lag or can’t join the game like SWTOR release and even WOW. That is technical and not inherent gameplay or actual in-game policies.
Let me get this straight the interpretation of that percentage is void because Forbes is not a gaming company… This is your narrative correct. The 50% population decline from Steam is only natural for MMORPGs. Is that what you are telling me?
Do me a favor type MMORPG on the search page on Steam and tell me what the list says. Or click on user-defined MMORPG and tell me the top 10 sellers you see on your list. If Path Of Exiles is not an MMORPG then let me guess Lost Ark is also not an MMORPG.
That’s true. I didn’t think about low pop servers. Maybe costs need to be re-evaluated and looked across the board. It shouldn’t be so expensive for players trying to have fun nor for companies to maintain cities & make the city worth traveling to. Maybe the whole thing needs an adjustement.
It is not overpriced. Let’s just say Bless Online was there first then Bless Unleashed. Same publisher but keeps suggesting it is a “different” developer team. Wink wink.
Could happen - but not because of the bugs or any of that. The worst enemy this game has is its own players. The have been in charge of creating this fatalistic and chaotic atmosphere where they want to make it seem like everything is falling apart. Add to the equation that streamers have an obscene amount of leverage when it comes to destroying a game - this one is no exception to that. Instead of fostering a community that will work together with devs and everyone in the background to address and fix the issues plaguing the game, they are just spouting verbal diarrhea non stop during their streams and to no ones’ surprise, their followers mindlessly venture in this type of behavior.
Games that excel in their genre, took them years and years of hard work, bugs, patches, trials and errors and all kinds of setbacks to achieve their status. There’s no such thing as “Finished Game” on release when it comes to MMO. Anyone who envisions playing best possible version of this game will have to come back in a few years. Programming is not about changing a line or adding a ; to make it work.
I wasn’t trying to be unreasonable here. I understand there is actual GAME stuff that does take time to fix. I can wait for that.
What bothers me the most is that the exploits they refer to as an exploit, make a forum post about it that is an exploit is simply patched off? Nothing was heard from it again. The Boarsholm, Bears, and the gatekeeper in Reekwater never existed. It is “fair” gameplay once again. If they can’t adhere to their “Fair Gameplay” policies what is next? Simply turned off World Transfer and fix like no gold duping was done?
Again the game itself I can enjoy, I just can’t enjoy a game that allows exploiters to roam free while you are there being a good boy. This is the only game that I made a lot of friends on my list. Goldsellers… that more likely exploited. I have to add them 2-5 every day.
I am completely on board with you on this, but unfortunately there are things way beyond are control. From my experience from other games, community managers seldom have any kind of interaction with devs other than receiving patch notes and this is usually via email. Thereof, the lack of information. I at least hope that’s improve and we can see some sort of weekly progression on what they are actually working on. This usually alleviates the tension on the players.
Now I know. But they guy I was answering at was stating that a t4 house with taxes for him was 700. Like if this were always like that, which is not true.
This kind of posts are a sign that this game is having gotten a active and big community. Else this guys would not even visiting the forums.
ps.: i pay like 500 per 5 days The cheapest flat next to the ah at this Lightwood.
i really think this orb stuff needs to go away, people need to beable to do dungeons to learn how to play…25-55 should be free of orbs…60 dungeons i would understand thats end game. gotta fix this #$%@ its getting annoying
I dont like being a negative person i really LOVE the game, but level60 is where its at…everything below that its nothing cuz theres no Battle grounds or anything so it doesnt make sense AT ALL to have orbs for low level Dungeons…level 1-50 is gearing/learning weapons to prep you for 60 PvP battle LOL
Amazon please do somthing.
I agree. Im hoping they will realm reborn this game with fresh servers after a year or so once they’ve fixed this broken game. I’ll give it another try then.
oh i love this game and dungeons are GREAT but it just seems like theres so many people that just dont know how to play in a group…its because of this S#%$ orbs.
iam still playing it, i have no problems with playing with my friends in dungeons always complete the dungeons, but i feel really bad when people make a group with their orb and they waste it by rage quiting…you know it sucks for those people. its a broken system for having fun with people.
Tell me you don’t know anything about owning a territory without telling me… lmao
Companies do NOT make enough gold just from owning a city. You clearly have never had to do this and companies constantly bleed gold because of town upkeep/upgrades/war upgrades. Only WW, Everfall are major hubs for gold.
