Is nightingale already dying?

[侍Kage]

Yesterday it had more than 43k now it's only 38k and droping rapidly. Is nightingale already dying? Is the game a big flop? What are your thoughts?

bro the game has been out a day

Yes tomorrow there will only be 37,999 players. Its obviously rapidly dying. by Friday there will only be a measly 37,997 players.
In 2034 it will be completely dead with only about 25000 players, thats my prediction anyways and as an average steam user, my predictions are 128% accurate.

Brain dead post. wait for the weekend then the pop will go up.

Probably because everyone is stuck waiting for the damned portal at the end of the tutorial to open. Stupid ass Devs.

Far too early to be making threads like this. This is a very new Early Access game. Take a look at Last Epoch on Steam Charts. It just recently came out of Early Access and the pop has dramatically increased.

Ultimately this isn't the sort of thing we should be worried about yet. Right now is the time to explore the game, report bugs and give feedback. If you aren't here for that, you may want to wait until the game has matured.

These stupid threads are in every game forum. They're like a turd in a spacesuit - they never go away.

I made two characters, both stuck at the same spot. the 3 waves of monsters come out and then nothing. REFUND requested, how can you release a game with this kind of bug at the start of the game.

they should limit this forum to game owner only.
remove the clowns

I have only played it for 1.7h but the game feels ok, even if you're plaing alone. Just give it some more time, if they keep updating it and fix issues, it wont die.

Its concerning that the "Active Players" seems to have Peaked on Day 1, but I don't know if that means it's dying. There's always a high spike on Day 1 and then depending on patches and issues, it could be another week or two till the Active Players goes up.
I mean Palworld set a record with 2 Million Active and now averages 375k. They're still doing fine.
Nightingale sold about 100k Copies so far (estimated) and I'm sure that will go up.

Lastly, its the middle of the week. I'd judge it more based on how it does Friday-Sunday with Active Players.

EDIT: Here's the graph if you wanna bookmark it and keep checking it https://steamdb.info/app/1928980/charts/

Oh no, people aren't playing the game so now I shouldn't, boohoo. I can't think for myself so I have to ask people and be comforted so I can play. Halp..what do I do I can't think for myself

Last epoc launched today, D2R resets ladder on thursday. Many game releases are what causes player bases to drop. Nightinggale is also a much slower paced game and many people do not want to spend the time to get started.

Last epoch came out of early access today yes, and the servers basically broke.. devs are still trying to fix them. So people are relegated to only offline for now.

No it's fine, there are over 73,000 games and 132 million active monthly users on Steam and Nightingale is #27 right now. Steamdb has about 7000 entries and Nightingale peaked at #305 in terms of concurrent players all-time peak, that's more than recent releases like Persona 3 Reload and Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth. There are many successful games with healthy fanbases that only get 5000-10000 players at any given time
