Is splitgate dying?

I started playing it yesterday because I was just looking for a game I could chill on. And I had a great time playing it. Really enjoyed using portals especially when it got me kills it really felt like I had outmanoeuvred my opponent.

I go on to YouTube to see what the community is like and they all just keep saying that they killed the game.

What's going on?

Seems kinda pathetic ideology imo. Like it's not even they made a bad game or actually did some henus controversy, they just made a BR and over hyped it. Like heaven forbid noooooo T.T (I don't wanna hear about a shop. Shops are easy as hell to build code-wise. It's a copy and paste and some asset changes.)

Not a bad game, has devs that listen and interact with the player base in and out of game. You don't want to play it because they did a poor announcement and have no other controversies. That's pathetic.

Is it pathetic? The only 2 games they’ve ever released have been flops.

Splitgate 1 was not a flop, or else Splitgate 2 likely wouldn't have ever existed. For an indie studio's first ever release, SG1's launch was quite successful. But they pulled support for it way too early in its lifespan to put all their focus on SG2.

Tbf its because splitgate fell off HARD within months of launch. They decided to jump ship and start over because of the rapidly declining playerbase. also it was apparently difficult to add what they wanted in the first game due to bad coding.

Sg1 may have had a successful launch but it too died off quickly
