Yeah but if you factor in the people complaining about D4 while not playing D2R that number actually goes up by a few. How someone can consider complaining on a forum for a game they dont play an "end game" is beyond me, folks have too much time on their hand and yet still won't give their baals a tug.

TY For posting this :)



What endgame? What are smoking? Rob‘s dirty socks?

Both stats from playerauctions

You're welcome


That doesn't even come close to lining up with the other analytic data that's related to D4. How exactly are they gathering this supposed data when blizzard themselves doesn't release the numbers? Calling bs on those stats. They don't even match normal popular title trajectory in downward player populations.

If you want you should look at actual raw data that isn't concealed or doctored in terms of streaming data available on sites like twitch. It gives a better representation of how much interest remains in a game. You aren't getting the real numbers on player populations unless the game is on steam. Blizzard has a tendency to conceal that information, much like how they've done with wow over the years. Although with wow there was a way to comb the server information to come to conclusions on active player populations using addons. This does not exist in D4 though. They can't comb the servers for data via addons being used across multiple realms with /who information.

I did and that's the point. They have no source to the data. You must not be aware of how data scraping works with addons. The only points of actual data they might have are sales and streaming. Other than that they're just throwing out numbers on game sales figures most likely. Units sold doesn't amount to current game population though. As has been spoken before the vast majority of games now lose over 70% of their player base in the first month. In fact in the mobile market it's a player retention rate of about 23% beyond month one.
