Is this game dead?

[BigRig]

It only has eighteen players right now, it's been in early access for four years and has 12 goals on its road map and it's only completed one. I've had it on my wish list for a year now, should i take it off?
I just don't want to keep waiting for a game that's not coming.

it is not dead and the developer has basically re-written half the game to implement the dungeon and current party system. That step took A LOT of time. Future steps might be implemented more quickly.

What playerbase do you expect for a game, that is so niché, that it doesn't even have a competitor?

Development has been slow, but the game has been playable and fun at every stage, so far.

Yeah. And the community on discord is active daily. The dungeons update was slow to produce but the devs are close to making the next update soon.

[HunterAnubis]

are they? whats the next update anyway? I was thinking of revising since I didnt play since before dungeons but if theres update coming in month or two Ill wait

[Darth VR]

Have been waiting 4 years for them to put this on sale.

[Golden Dias]

yes it is. Waiting 2 years for dungeon update. The most slowly development in game history

[high heels hater]

at least the game is being made, still. they dont give up and the dev is very active. give him some time, this is some hard game to develop as a tiny tiny indie studio, considering the amount of recoding he did for game's base code structure. also, its worth buying if you ask me even with it's current state, there are plenty of stuff to engage with, i recommend. currently have 68hrs in the game, and being playing this game time to time for a long time

very active if you re in eldery home. 1 big update in 2 years is not enough and you can like this dev or the game like you want. Still have only 8 classes after so long time is sins

It's as deads as a game can be.
There's literally no progress, no features coming that were promised. Just horrible overall, there's better games coming out that tackle this genre a lot better than this one. The developer missed their time.

The potential is there. Needs a data base of heroes & monsters that is balanced and ready to go. Having to create every skill for heroes & monsters is tedious, but there is no limit to how unique you can make stuff. The long term rewards of an auto playing game are always questionable. This genre needs a breathe of AI auto generated zones to expedite the experience and leave the player with beautification and tweaks.
Once you are experienced you can get a zone going in under 30 minutes. The only way this game could have long term replay ability would be a hero version where players could make a character in their own world and experience the MMO they made...as well as being able to play in other players worlds.

There are some patches from time to time, and recently we had the dugeons update adding some nice good new features. It is a small team though, so don't expect huge changes in a short time i think.
For the game itself, it is fun for a few hours for sure, especially when you try to customize it allot and try to make nice looking zones. But yes, after playing some time it does still feel a little bit bland on gameplay. So it could have some more late game features to keep it entertaining.

More or less abandoned and dead sadly.

What are you talking about? The game gets multiple patches a month.

Over on the discord, the game’s primary developer posts more or less daily updates on progress. It’s one of the most transparently-developed games I’ve ever seen.

This game is not dead, but the updates are slow and they never release really important updates, beside the dungeons... I recommend you take a look at this other game here, this dev is doing everything I always wanted mmprpgtycoon to have, like items for example, and a really good quest system, it's called mmorpg dev tycoon, but i'ts in development https://i.imgur.com/v4FhMF0.png

We literally just put out another update today :) And in addition, just updated the roadmap on our website if you want more info.
