Is lost ark dead?

[Shieda ツ]

I tried to play a bit but I can't find people, I wrote in the general chat but no one answered, is it a bug or there are no players? The game have 100k people...

If your leveling then sorry to burst your bubble, Players are all at end game and you only ever have to do the levelign process once. Plus players can only talk in general chat when they hit level 30. With how easy it is to get to end game, the leveling zones will not have really any players anymore.

i just returned, in the starter zone. All I see are bots, bots everywhere

I'd say about 60% of the player pop is still bots. :) Just making numbers up, but I'd wager money that I'm not far off.

What region are you in? EU West as an example is stone dead, reroll on Central instead.

Depends what region and server you play on. I've never had this issue.

100k of that are bots.
The rest is "no purpose in life" cartman's from south park who do repetitive content all day long.

Don't forget the people that sit in the forums all day and cry. Or do these people who've been here for months crying about "how the game sucks and the people that play it are deranged" fit into the same category?
Probably not, at least the people playing the game are achieving something.

EUW suffers from player count on weekly content that are meant to be region wide such as raids. The 2 existing servers have plenty of people. Usually around 30 people for every daily event such as field boss and adventure island. I was on the first ghost ship for the week this week and I think we were closer to 60 on that.

However I have noticed in this game people are not very talkative. I think there are 2 main reasons for this:
-Voice chat is off by default. Voice is a lot better for making connections.
-The heavy focus on gear and efficient farming rather than cooperation and beating challenges together makes people more single-player minded.

No. If i noticed one thing, its: As bigger the garbage is, the more people suck it.

[Itrace4]

Enormous amounts of people .

BUT this game lets you skip the leveling process once its completed once.

For all your 6 , 12 or 18 alts, you'll neever have to level again so that's why you're not seeing players.

And that is what MMO is all about, doing the same content
