well i have to disagree there :blush: ! in that thread i said that 98k was the peak and that after that the game started to stagnate. that turned out to be true, but it might have been an outlier (note the *MIGHT HAVE*, i dont think it was an outlier but a valid value, it was high because of the biggest expansion ever, but not by chance), and then followed by two lower played leagues (abyss and bestiary), and then something of a peak with incursion, showing a steady increase for 3 leagues. so basically while you are saying that harbinger was an outlier, im saying that incursion was the one that was an outlier, probably due to aggressive campaign by the chinese that bought poe. and note that neither of the two of us had any evidence of the claims, i thought poe was dying based on pure intuition :blush:
and while i said this based on intuition as well, it is a difference of 20k on first day on steam alone, which is a fall that i honestly didnt expect to be that big :wacko: 20k isnt intuition anymore, it is a proof that something is horribly wrong when it comes to poe :wacko:
the outlier is not 1 league its entire life of the game, as i said peak doesnt mean jack shit you are too thin to understand that.
Thats why you picked expansion release in a line thats long years.
Again you don't know how to think or what to make of things you see, and lets say this drop in players is not for other factors beside game itself, it still doesnt mean anything maybe wait few leagues and your dreams will come true , your life goal of showing a graph where PoE is dying.
Or you could be not retarded and do smth else in ur life, thats just a random thought.
