Greetings,

I've been seeing SOME people saying this game is dead or dying.

Is it true? I hope not. I really hope this game last for 10+ more years.

So ya guys think? Is this game still growing/attracting more players each day/week/months or is it slowly dying?

If you say it's dying, explain why?

    It seems to me that this game is slowly dying. There aren't really many new players coming to the game, only old players simply creating more lvl 100 characters and such. PWI even took great lengths to encourage new players like that gold chest for first time players and having a timer for it to open for hax timed gear and that grim event for low level players to be the "tabber" for the other high levels.

    But thats my opinionb:bye

    I'm shocked that after all of this time, I completely missed that thread. Just read through it all. Looks like I'm part of the "Addicted Veteran" class of player.

    @OP: The game's quality has died. Whether or not the game itself is dying, is up to the player. Remember if it seems like there are a lot of players in the game itself; multi clienting is allowable, so many of those players are the same player (in a sense).

    rofl, now that I read through that "Addicted Veteran", I guess I am one too, but part of successful farming/merchanting, as I still never charged since Sep 08..b:chuckle

    lol idk if im an addicted veteran or a satisfied nerd... haha

    anyways, as much as people love to say this "game is dead," no matter how many patches that may "**** things up" or no matter how many things they attempt to "fix" that arent broken, these "addicted veterans" (lol) will continue to play. theres enough addicted veterans and satisfied nerds (although it says theyre extinct, but i dont think thats true xD) in the game to keep it alive for years.

    so if by dead you mean empty servers/instances then, my friend, its not, the game is very much alive.

    for those who have played the pw-my version, if you went back on there now and took a look at it would you seriously wonder why it hasnt died yet. the population from there to here isnt even comparable. the neglect of patches and communication to the players from there to here isnt comparable either - thats how bad it is over there >.<

    This looks like a NECRO!

    Tyrion - Morai replied to a message that was 2 years 6 months 6 days 12 hours 25 minutes old.

    Any thread over one month (30 days) old is considered to be a dead thread and you're not supposed to post in them. The person you are replying to probably doesn't care any more or can no longer be found on the forums. The topic itself could be out of date. Next time just make a new thread.

    Let's see how long it takes for a mod to close this :)
