Regiments

Regiments are the community so you are technically saying the community is killing the community.
Well, the drama associated with the regiments has turned quite a few loyal players away

People have been screaming at regiments to shape themselves up for a while now, it's not happening.

So I've gone to blaming them for the early demise of the game.

In the sense of the community, probably just one that is nice to everyone.

A regiment that keeps all aggressions purely tied to the game mechanics too.

Age is killing it. There's nothing new ever added to it. All new ideas have to be implemented by members of the community and Warband is made in such a way that adding new things (like the gun-game game-mode the Nr7 did perfectly) is really hard. BCoF was set in the wrong war in my opinion and I think the game will almost die a complete death as soon as there is a Napoleonic themed mod/DLC for Bannerlord.

I used to think I would never get bored of this game, but even I'm really burnt out on it. If it wasn't for leading my regiment and certain aspects of the community I would have been gone a long time ago.

Same here if my regiment ever disbanded I probably would leave the community or just make a regiment for once since its my last ditch attempt at the game.

I don't think regiments themselves can be purely blamed for killing the game, considering that they are the base of the game and one of the main reasons for its success. While public games are fun, they are easy to get bored of and without regiments the game certainly couldn't be as successful as it has been.

I think the game is just dying because it is old and every great game (apart from Rome: Total War) goes through this. No point blaming regiments, considering a lot of people purchased the game to join them.

Every few months "the dlc is dying" thread comes along. Even when...

NA1 still gets 100+ pop two years later. LBs are more popular than ever, competitive play is still healthy etc.

Game has a long way to go before it "dies".

I noticed the same thing Mack, I'm convinced it's just when one certain person or a small group of his friends gets bored or his/their regiment dies, that's how these things start. And there may be some general decline of the game itself, but it does still have a long way to go.

the reality is that plubic servers have less people than ever, and events are less too :(
