Reads like a death knell for the game.

Player numbers are way down so they've cooked up a reason to get people to log in every day while *still* not giving any new content.

Elderwoods is still at least another three months away, if not longer... I'm not sure how many people are going to wait that long.

Guess well see what these stickers are, but they keep missing the point that even a free to play game needs to incentivize people to play with actual gameplay and goals to work towards.

So much FOMO that they said they'd never add.

Sounds promising.
"Elderwoods is still at least another three months away, if not longer... I'm not sure how many people are going to wait that long."
How do come to this conclusion?
I'm quite happy to wait

"Q2" would be April - June.

Problem is a lot of us have been waiting for years. If it takes them this long to make one area, the next won't come until 2028 at the earliest.

honestly it was pandering, but they actually acknowledged what we've been saying for a long time. They agreed that there is no way to show your progress in game without using real money. Stickers are just the bandaid they can do now, and I really hope these words are not like the accessibility blog, cause they haven't added that brightness or text size slider yet and it's been a year... lol

Yeah... Been involved with the game since 2021 and can confidently say that it's 100% just pandering. They nod their heads and say they're listening but they really only care about doubling down on what they're already doing rather than bother making any kind of changes.
