Player Count?
As a completely new player, is this game worth getting into? I can't find any statistics (other than SteamCharts) about the player population, and I know SteamCharts isn't the most accurate as a lot of people won't be playing through Steam.

Is there a lot of people who still play this? And if so, is it relatively quick to catch up with everyone?

All that changed when F/C opened up the SAGA server on Feb 15th (goes to May 15th). Population EXPLODED. Many old and new players came and stayed. Saga is starting to taper off and Crom coming back to life as players finish the Saga quest line (all will transfer from Saga to Crom when Saga closes). Both are playable, with Saga being more so.

Catching up? If you're talking about getting to lvl 80 / End game then it really depends on how much you want to put into it; Buy Double XP potions from the store?, Grind on your own or with a quild?, or join a power leveling group? Truth is you really don't need to 'catch up' to anyone as there's still players in the starter area and scattered all through the levels. Granted the majority of the Crom pop is at max level, but with the new coming over from Saga, Alt's etc..... you'll find people to play with.

Download it and start a character on the Saga server and have some fun.

Thank you! I read about the new server and assumed it would draw in a lot of old/new players, but wasn't sure if it would be worth my time. From what you have told me, I will definitely give it a go. Hope to see you in game! :)
