Monster Hunter wilds: From 1.1 million players to 50k players

The game is failing. It has lost 95 percent of it's playerbase in just 2 months. If you don't make the necessary changes to the game then your company and your game is going to fail.

See I can make this argument for literally any game out there. Doesn't mean the game is bad, doesn't mean the game is a failure. In fact poe2 has better player retention then any game out there. It is a bad faith argument. Nobody wants poe1.5. Just wait for 3.26

Yeah exactly. Monster hunter wilds is considered a wildly successful game yet it has lost 95 percent of its player base.

Remember when armored core 6 came out? It has virtually no one playing it now, but god damn it is a great game and sold well.

I would argue armored core 6 does not apply. Monster hunters wilds is a pseudo online mmo similar to the way poe operates. You see other people in town but when you go into an instance you are by yourself unless you are in a party

Which of these games is free to play and league based?

I downloaded the beta a few months back, played it for about 45 minutes and then uninstalled it. I've never played a game with a worse control scheme. It's just a constantly shifting mapping of buttons to actions.

Also I'd like to remind everyone that this OP admitted to being too old to play hard games anymore, which is why he found an easy game like POE where he could spend his days trolling the forums.

I'm sure in his mind he's concocted some clever explanation as to why MH being bad means that you aren't allowed to criticize POE2, but it seems like a really bad example to go with.

Monster hunter wilds is seasonal based content:
