Game is dead.
The concurrent player is so bad....
How can the dev revive the playerbase?

Roguelikes are a lot better when replayability is based on random power-ups that you get. Sometimes you just get screwed and get nothing good, sometimes you're blessed with the powerful item that carries the run.

For the most part this game is fine for it's price but it gets boring dreadfully fast. especially with the needlessly tedious tasks such as survive 100 days.

Agree to that, they need to made more different content.

Not dead imo, its just once you got what you need for the season you just wait for the next update which I am fine with. So far the pacing is great. This is not a 60$ game guys.... cmon its literally 20 bucks.

There must be bigger update with new biomes, enemies, dungeons, goals, buildings, game concepts... Game was fun for a few dozen runs, but it is all the same, nothing new to uncover. Maybe in 1-2 years there will be massive update/DLC.

Three step plan. Revamp to prepare for attention, get that attention, and hold that attention.

One - Set themselves up for success in the future with better retention by fixing the countless underwhelming systems - weapons, abilities, classes, skill trees, elements, combat, building, etc. Make the game fun, satisfying, and rewarding at every step so that current players have more to do and when players return they're more likely to stay.

Two - Add a hook to keep players returning that no other game has. My money for this one would be making the Jotunns the main selling point and gameplay element, not a side feature tacked on - they're unique and have room to be so much more. This would rekindle quite a bit of the lost interest if done well and would certainly pull back more players than a "Saga boss variant".

Three - Continue keeping players involved with future content updates, rebalances, and additions after the previous changes. Once they have retention sorted and players coming back to the game, content updates will let their community grow.

May or may not be dead, but I just didn't like it at all. Refunding after just 45 minutes, and I can't believe this is not an early access alpha build but a full release... it's just mind boggling how mediocre this is.

I can tell you did not even read it, because that journey beyond note on the bottom was literally added today.

Before you make crap up at least read what is shown to you. Kids I tell you

Ah yeah, the classic completely disregard nearly all of what's being discussed, insult everyone, and toss information around that wasn't available when the post was made. Big brain stuff there.

None of their mid-season changes or upcoming updates seem to provide anything to fix the problem of this game being completely dead, we were sitting at pathetic triple digit player counts before the patch launched and we're going to be right back there within a week because mid-season brought about one run worth of new content for most players and two runs worth of content for the completionists.

Actual numbers > Your opinion
Played today after update. I see why its dead. People kill giant and leave. No way to progress in the game because no one wants to. Everyone wants to just kill giant and quit. We initially thought it was because people were farming Seer, well the game has been out long enough now, this isnt the case anymore.

I think we can safely say, the real problem is people just want to have short games in saga, and survival is for longer games.

this makes completing saga borderline impossible unless you do it solo. Because you'll always end up doing it solo regardless barring getting specific groups of people together.
