    This game was on track to be forgotten

    Game is just outside the top 50 on steam and had a major content release at the end of June. This ‘game is dying’-because-it-didn’t-indefinitely-sustain-player-counts-in-the-top-10 meme is dumb as hell.

      Well statistically speaking like only 1% of their peak player count at launch was still playing the game.

      It doesn’t do bad on the top ranking out of all games on Steam, but it didn’t do great anymore either.

      It’s a pocketpair thing though as far as “abandoning” a game. As a craftopia player I know all too well how they start off and then drag their feet with minimal input after a certain time. It’s one thing I was worried about with palworld before it even came out. :/
