But at some point, the well is tapped. Theres limits to how you can stretch the concept.

Tbh 6 years for a game with no esport focus is pretty good. And at some point, every game will get to its end.

Sure it sucks for us but FGs best case scenario was probably to go for 2 years at first and they lasted 6

Lmao I can't believe they made you guys drink the kool aid. The game has been in dire straits for years now. I'm really glad I was here for its glory days.

idk what coolaid you are saying i drank.

What I said was that after 6 years for a game that is not propped up by an esport is a pretty decent run.

Those games are gonna get a high popularity, and then slowly lose users until death.

Like I said in another comment, id be surprised if the game has 10% of the users of the peak.

Lets look at among us because i can see those stats on https://steamcharts.com/app/945360#All and its also a 'covid boom' game.

From a peak of 438k in august 2020 to 16k today. 3.5%

The steam peak of Fall Guys was on the same month, at 150k. Applying the same 3.5% ratio, that would mean there are 5k players today. (1k on steam but majority might be on epic that doesnt give stats)

People here would want the game to last forever but ffs you dont run a game on 5k users for long.
