    Yeah this game really does get too much hate. You can dislike the combat or whatever features. But theres a lot of features and content. The lore is my all time favorite. The world is mesmerizing. The art can either be liked or disliked. I happen to be a fan. Either way the cult like following of bashing this game gets is just sad. Hopefully things can turn around! I am excited to hear whats in store tomorrow.

    I don't hate the game. The game hated me. It was a bit too hardcore for my tastes. I will admit that. I know or think they went away from the whole Cupcake style of things. Then I went back and there was like 3 people on in the biggest city and then I just never went back again.

    It makes me sad but I don't think Wildstar can recover. I don't bash it and I think it was a great game in many ways.

    I feel like you were either on
    1.) The pvp server
    2.) on at like 3am after maintenance.

    Yeah..plenty of people on there now.. since it hit steam as f2p. But it had a bad start. Personally? I'm a huge fan.. though I admit to not playing much..mostly because of system requirements. >.>

    T'was said "bring this game to Steam and see it take off"; make the game f2p and see it take off. They did, it hasn't. Sad perhaps but reality is reality. An average of 279 players and a peak of 490 over Christmas does not constitute a lot of players.

    Most people I know that play this game do not use the steam client so this really can be taken with a grain of salt.

    not saying there is a hug population, just saying this data is not correct.

    Indeed. I should have made that clear. And it did earn about $900k in 2016 Q3 although revenue is falling. (Would need to use last years exchange rates to be accurate).

    My comment though was intended to highlight that despite c. 900k Steam downloads almost none of them have "graduated" to playing long term. So why would it take off on console?

    And maybe that says as much about mmos as it does about Wildstar.

    They need an expansion max level 60 a thing bring all this stuff and new dungeons and raids and you got a plethora of new players intrested in the game again. I know it will never happen but the game is fun and i still play it.
