What killed Amongus will kill this game too
The community right now is in the state Amongus was after the hype hit for the first month. You have heavily modded lobbies and basic lobbies filled with tryhards who use discord screen share to cheese the game obtaining everything possible.

I was lucky for my first lobby ever yesterday to last 4 hours with great legit people where only 1 was a boss rank and the rest like me were new.

Now every lobby I try is filled either with children(kinda expected) or snobby tryhards who play like it's a real job and kick anyone who dies to just about anything.

I'm not saying I want this game to die but it will if people don't start shaping up or the dev separates modded vs legit lobbies because also finding a game that ISNT modded is horrible when the host doesn't label his game as modded, it always pops an error.

Yes the separation of modded is needed. But your argument is wrong. First, Among Us isn't dead, it still has a massive amount of people playing it daily, about 10-15 million per day to be exact. That is still a lively and profitable game. It is just old news since people have an play it, the hype has passed, and those who like it have stayed with it.

Same will happen with this game. Like with relationships this is called the honeymoon period, everything is fresh and new and great. Time goes on and everything starts becoming the same, thats how life works and that is how gaming works.

Difference here compared to Among Us, is this game is easily scale able and has massive ability for diversity of encounter and gameplay, meaning that so many thing can be added constantly giving it a lot of replay ability. The fact it was set up to have a great modding scene also helps to its continued life expectancy. Like how Minecraft is.

No game can hold the numbers of its highest point, most people move onto the next thing. But this game will still hold a large amount of constant players and new players getting it for many years to come.

Your argument went out the window when you said 10-15 mil people play it daily... Not even World of Warcraft had numbers like that back in 2004.

But nice bait.

That is kind of the only way to play this game but getting random online friends who have never touched a game like this that aren't 12 years old or smoke too much weed is difficult.

I dont have a friend group that is obsessed with meta games like this that play APEX, Fortnite, CSGO or Valorant. Games like those attract a certain type of person and I don't play them, neither do my friends. Because we're kind of too mature for the crowds in those games.

For this we just simply need separation or more clear indication of a modded lobby and a new server browser entirely to have more filters and easier detection of full/empty games.

Make it easier for a new player to find a bunch of people to play with, not hit an error screen every 2 seconds for hours.

I got in 2 playable lobbies within 3 hours yesterday and 1 of them was full of screaming open mic kids.

Among us is a PVP party game. And I am not gonna lie. Among us with friends and modded lobbys is alot more fun then vanilla among us. And uhm, Publlic lobbies in among us always where filled with people who cheat on discord.

This is not.

Please stop comparing.

Good, both this and Among Us are trash

Every person you meet and have fun with, add them, make a group with them, call it like "legit players" and then they can all meet together from that group and not have to deal with w*nkrs?

It's casual game for small prices just like AmongUS. It's not suppose to be MMORPG where people spend their entire life. Why do people insists that every game has to be like that?
It's like you guys are too young to remember arcade games. Fun time for brief period time for cheap price.

the fun (for me and my friends) of the game is how scary and unpredicatable it is and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ yourself at enemies.

i hate playing with people who have watched every streamer and read every enemy and know 100% how to do everything, same with phasmophobia, you get streamers playing max difficulty running in and finishing within a couple on minutes.

best bet is host your own lobby and label accordingly, hopefully find some nice people and add them to your friends list, most of the 'pro speedrunners' will be bored after xmas anyway and move on.
