GGG and most players, I assume.

Less people to buy MT. Less money made. Less investment in future content.

palworld had 2 million, and that game was a literal alpha.

Never understood the hype around that game.

So Palworld had 2.1 million peak on first weekend after release, and that dropped to a peak of 757,000 by the 3rd weekend - a drop of 64% in 2 weeks.

PoE2 had 578,000 first weekend, and 420,000 3rd weekend - a drop of 27.5% in 2 weeks.

Seems that PoE2 is doing significantly better at player retention than that piece of copy-paste crud did.

Isn't Palworld getting sued by Nintendo?

Only 5 % will remain in long run. End game is pure trash and most ppl not interested. The campaing is where the fun is at.

Its unplayable 50% of the time with server lag. Certain areas are so laggy you just can't fight and die while other areas work fine.

If you re-roll instances many time sit can work but its not a solution just a band-aid.

Untill they sort the ♥♥♥♥ out people will be turned off.

It's the weekend before christmas. A lot of people are on holiday, so they don't have time to play.

They should be playing Path of Exile 2 instead of wasting time with family obligations.

But it's not FUN. That's why its losing playerbase.

Exactly the same as happened with PoE1 until the devs saw the light and made it much more player friendly.
NGL I dont like the current state of end game atlas. Im fine with losing my tier map if I died but wtf i have to lost the node as well?

The end game has no skill in it. The enemy deal so much damage that you barely able to do anything. So your solution is either you gear up or you die and have 0 progress. It is P2W more than anything, at the current state of standard if you just buy most of the good gear you will be a god over night. I enjoy the campaign more than the end game.

I like how you interpret numbers to back up your wishes. It could mean a lot of other things like christmas hollidays, some players taking a break after cmpleting their first character, or else.

Get your frustration out of here if you don't like the game. Why are you still commenting instead of going back to whatever you like to play.

Which is exactly what devs said. They released half the acts and are currently working on end game content.

PoE 1 is the best Arpg regarding end game content. Have more faith in GGGand be patient
