The player base is dwindling because it’s the fate of all preservation servers. MMOs of this sort survive on the constant addition of new content, and that’s not really going to happen in a game that is meant to freeze time. Yes, the devs are going to add more, but it’s the same updates we all have seen and experienced before. The novelty will wear off fast.

Do you really think spec attacks is going to be the thing that keeps a 2k active player base around?

this is also just the fate of most modern games where the player-base is highest closer to release, eventually dwindles, and increases again with updates

i don’t know if thats the case but i wish they released content independantly from which month it released, for example releasing september updates in june or wtvr

5

that said, the positive is that we can play other stuff while waiting for updates to drop and dedicate 100% time to this, ppl will come back eventually. personally i can’t wait for slayer/barrows/tz’zar to come out

They’re not like, waiting for the correct dates to line up to release more content, the game is just in the state it is in now and takes work to get to the next set of updates accurately. They’ve stated that they’ll likely release batches of updates at a time so possibly like all of June 2004 for the next one, but we don’t really know yet.

Senseless grinding is one of my favorite hobbies no matter the time or place. :slight_smile:

My fun is not based off of the activity of others. Even the population hit 0 I’d still play because I am having fun, and seeing what I am able to achieve through foresight and patience. But, I understand ur concern for the population but personally it doesn’t effect me
