Player numbers are reducing drastically, the main reason is not that players are leaving but because more than half of the players got banned permanently. And the banning session is not over yet, it will continue as long as anyone is doing something against the rules of game. Always gunna be collateral when there is a big (very long overdue) crack down. |

For me, its because of toxic comunity, specially in rokoko. I was selling x item for its common price (i saw many ppl selling for that price that day), then someone appeared with a price 200m lower than mine. I tought it was a troll trying to break my price, so i kept selling for the same amount, when noticed many ppl insulting me. Changed account and noticed what happened: that player selling lower than me blacklisted my alt and was asking ppl to report and blacklist me. He was semi famous, so instantly many -dumb- follwers did the same. I left the game since then, been 2 weeks already. Kinda sad, my bishop was only 1 struggler 2s and some magic+1% relics to get 100% complete. Tldr: not only asobimo is the reason for so many ppl left the game, players also are doing a great job with their stupidness~ That in itself wouldn't be enough to drive me out of the game. Thankfully in that sense, I can be pretty fkn petty. Soon as I found out my char had been blacklisted like that, I would have resolved to keep that char out of rkk and then hit it with 2 other chars, 1 to sell what I want, undercutting that guy where possible, making sure to blacklist him before I start doing so so he can't see my prices, and then I would use a second phone to have a second char there to watch what the guy is selling and at what prices. Anyway, it wasn't much of what has been mentioned so far that drove me from the game for about 2 yrs(aside from being raped by the rl grind) but more just the feeling of being left to play 2nd fiddle to jp iruna.pretty much the more I heard of things there that we don't have, the more frustrated and neglected I felt. Be it xtals and events they would get they we would never see, or actual active GMs that deter ppl from...doing pretty much all of the dodgy sht we see in eng iruna, a seemingly healthier community that actually interacted and communicated with each other making and hosting their own jp iruna wide events. It was nothing to do with the prevalent use of sh and bots, as much as it was the level of inaction in regards to dealing with them that drove me balmy in the end. I always wanted to come back to iruna, but just needed to wait for all those feeling of disenchantment to finally diminish enough to love playing the game again. Still love the game and still kept in touch with active pps. Then again after exposure to anything for an extended length of time I generally grow tired of it lol I kind of knew it was inevitable and did try to fight it as long as possible, but in the end did have to really give that extended break. It was also devastating seeing some ppl I was tight with leave the game, not so much watching them leave, but that after I started being reabsorbed by the rl grind was inactive/unable to play for a few months and by the time I returned my guild had basically died with the few members of it becoming inactive. |

Player numbers are reducing drastically, the main reason is not that players are leaving but because more than half of the players got banned permanently. And the banning session is not over yet, it will continue as long as anyone is doing something against the rules of game. That is probably why some prices of items are drastically increasing/decreasing. I was watching market and saw that: sauro2 from 750m -> now 800m Mr ori from 600m -> now 750m empty crysta from 28m -> 25m Players who did bannable actions (sh,lvl hack) farmed those xtals, but now were banned so the market supply suddenly had a chunk of it missing. A surge of 'new' players then went on farming empty to sell.... keep in mind that empty was only 10m one year ago |

If spina is the problem for low lvls thers a raid dat give good abi like rc on spec from r120/magic abi from r100/grecia xtal for caterina from r100/mpc arm from r120/mpc add from r140. Ethers also always got a constant buyer. It all depends on ppl to farm patiently or be impatience n blame ppl for high price stuff |

For a long time the economy has been screwed with a lack of basic supply and demand logic with these cheats screwing the system as they name their prices as they are the suppliers meaning the level of demand means nothing. I'm all for paying a ton for the hard to farm PIE, but increasing prices for easy farms is annoying to see. |

I'll be adding myself to the opinion of previous members: certainly the game is very good and is not dying. What's going on here is very simple: veteran players are moving on to new adventures (you know is called Real Life), is the same thing that happens to other games, everything changes and this game is no exception; but note that new generations of players are coming as well, but with slightly less hardcore interest that some of us had. ^~^ Now, if I'd have to consider an excuse to quit from the ones provided, I would pick 2nd and perhaps 4th. You see, over the time I had learn to coexist along hackers (yet not in my map!) Ninja topic, I'm oblivious to that subject. For a year I was one but then realized that it simple wasn't my type. Period. The inflation is a deterrent but not really a thing to stop anybody. RMT is totally dumb like if people spend (waste) they hard earned money on something that can be obtained freely well that's their problem, not the platform's itself. Personally, in my very specific case, I've left the game because I needed a break from it. Everyone needs one from time to time right? The most lovely hobby can become the most hated one when falls into the monotony, so is good to go out and get fresh air. Then lacking spare time because of many personal projects coming at once so I end with nothing left, that's a bit sad. On a brighter side, also because I found another game and got me hooked up really quick; I made myself a gang of assassins (if anyone interested is called king's raid)  As it can be seen, these reason come out from me and not from the game. Now in a manner to openly tell my experience, I confidently can say that I've enjoyed all those long hours playing non-stop, even though I used to play lonewolf which is already boring for the majority of people, regardless I've been able to experience every aspect of the game. To put it simple, the sensation of achieving something is just invaluable. So I would rather say reasons to quit are a lot, and we shouldn't generalize about them. Everyone has a different taste and while an issue can be tolerated other can't therefore becomes a trigger. Also making a valuation to the poll itself, I see no deviation in meaning. I think that is not misleading if is being read carefully; since people who trust others and easily change their opinions are actually untrustworthy, for them it might have some impact though. (also the title should be pointing out the reasons WHY players are quitting the game and not the opposite). |
