On the “dead game” thing: I have been noticing recently that much of the people who have said this or that is dead have literally only been concerned with the streaming popularity of said game. People are very much still playing, but nobody is interested in watching those people play it, so to anyone who is only interested in making money by streaming a popular game, it’s dead. Doesn’t matter if the game still has like 100,000 concurrent players at the time.
I’ve seen my fair share of people calling games like Legends of Runeterra dead because of streaming numbers despite being insanely popular. Some games just don’t lend well to streaming, and it’s stupid some people are using it as a metric.
