@AI_EmeraldApple I mean the devs were the ones that said "We don't need [player counts] to be super huge in order to be successful"

Emerald Apple@AI_EmeraldApple·
HighGuard isn't just facing end of service. The studio is staring down complete closure and the firing of all employees. Wildlight Entertainment has a 100-person team with a monthly burn of about $800k USD. Games like this need roughly 20–50k concurrent players (200k+ daily average users) for sustained profitability. There is zero chance the game is generating $800k a month with under 10k peak concurrent players. Even with optimistic 50k daily active users, revenue would max out at $150k–300k per month. Realistic estimates point closer to 30k daily active users and only about $45k-90k monthly revenue. With a 94%+ drop from peak in just one week, the game is in a death spiral. Such poor metrics deter whales from spending, since their cosmetics will become inaccessible after EOS. The negative press and numbers are also preventing many potential players from even trying it. Low players -> empty queues -> more quits ->whale flight -> revenue crater. To survive, the game needs 20k+ average concurrent players by mid-February... or both the game and the studio are finished. I also don't see any competent VC saving the studio either.

@coco22TV Honestly "from the creators of" is a big red flag. Lately every single game that was "from the creators of" ended up being a huge flop

State of AI right now > Anthropic CEO talking about AI winning nobel prizes and taking over the world within the span of 5 years > Elon talking about AI making money completely useless and creating infinite prosperity for humanity > Google using AI to solve quantum computing and drug discovery > OpenAI is talking about adding ads to their LLM The discrepancy is uncanny. OpenAI might be this generation’s Netscape

Sam Altman: “By the end of this year, for $100–$1,000 of inference and a good idea, you’ll be able to create software that would have taken teams of people a year to do. That magnitude of economic change is very hard to wrap your head around.”

How the fuck you gonna put guns in fantasy bullshit and not make a single one of them use magic or anything. How the fuck you people didn’t come up with the sniper rifle being a wizard staff or something. Just had to put an ak in the thing they couldn’t help themselves.

I tried Highguard. They basically took a bunch of different ideas from popular games and combined them into one. Apex, Fortnite, Counter Strike, and Rainbow Six Siege to name a few. Not really my kind of game. I don't think it will last unfortunately.
