I've been playing this game for quite a few years and its sad to see this happen.
Its the truth and its happening the non Russian servers are dying people around me are being inactive or leaving.
Its become a seasonal game honestly
You play at either of the 3-4 yearly events or you don't ...
Guessing from guild population and people that log atleast 4 days a week
its less than a thousand players on both sides in total (specifically talking about Eu Emerald).
The game move to add it on steam hasn't worked out quite well for increasing the popularity of the game.
I feel we have to take some sort of measures to get more players.
Its been awfully quiet and very robotic in terms of any changes in power or population growth and if there is a new face in the game its usually old players coming back but 2 others leaving...
Merging servers is quiet impossible in terms of timing the events but other stuff like merging dealer or having some sort of cross server event would be a good idea.
Knowing that many people still love 2D pixel rpg games i think WS can do better..
Rather than (don't want to be ungrateful or negative) having same repetitive events we could add something like sharing achievements or other game stuff to social media and earning rewards.
Having collabs and crossovers with other games/animes/movies like other games.
That's it for me.
what's your take on this and how can we increase the population of the game?
