D2 Playerbase Decline (Chart) Why Bungie???

Bungie, Can you tell us in one of your future TWABs why D2 playerbase is declining and what’s your plan to prevent that. FYI: The above link (chart) shows steam population only from one major expansion to another. The chart shows the following 2 problems… a major decline in returning players at the start of each expansion, and another declining trend the very next month right after the release of each expansion. Here is another chart showing today’s D2 Population for Steam, PSN, and Xbox https://imgur.com/gallery/IXGgcnI Although it shows steam population around 50% the more realistic number is around 35% for each of these platforms (including steam). Regardless of the exact percentage… steam population on average represents one-third of the overall playerbase… and that can be used as a viable indicator that there is a major problem for steam D2 playerbase. Lastly, I suspect that console playerbase is facing a similar trend in decline from one major expansion to another. Although I do not have any numbers to back up such statement.

  • Easy to answer this. Bungie is playing politics while only listening to the vocal minority of it's playerbase. They chase that minority (which is comprised of content creators and the like) and are not the average player. It's the same vicious social media cycle most games get stuck in. Real people who have a life outside the game become estranged.
