I still play lol granted a lot more with friends on FaS nowdays, but mostly because we preferred bot siege servers. NA-friendly.
I was there when the flag went down

Glad this thread actually got some attention and the game is growing again slowly, but I hope this wave of players stick like the 2014 and 2016/2015 players tbh.

I wouldn't get your hopes up. I don't mean to be pessimistic, just realistic.

The game has always had a growth cycle in which alot of players will get on/come back for the summer, and proceed to drop the game in the months after.

Summer Break has always had a pretty big impact.

Yeah i know but you can only hope ya know.  The players back in 2014 summer/2015 summer have kinda stuck around, maybe we'll have another wave.

Would be nice to see some increased forum activity and have the new members sign up for an account on the forums as well. This would increase the chances of them sticking around, as they'd be part of a bigger community.

Yeah for sure, but there is more old people coming back for the summer on fse, hopefully that'll lead some of them to start a movement to get on and or stay.  Should talk to appl zombies about ding somm with the forums.

Chances of the game's population going up again died when NA1 died in my opinion. Used to be able to get the population up close to full at nights, now it's always dead. New players don't go on groupfighting, and they probably don't even know the forums exist. As the game is right now it's super unapproachable.

It's just what naturally happens to an outdated game like this. If Bannerlord ever comes out we are set.

63e has a huge impact in killing this game imo.

It's an old as fuck game man, what do you expect? This game/community was great back in 2013/14 but that was years ago. People grew up and have lives now. And I highly doubt HS kids nowadays are going to take interest in NW in droves like we did 4-5 years ago.
