BigAbsTH21 0 Posted April 25, 2022 I was thinking about ylands a while back and thought to myself, "Damn, I'm going to play this game." I wasn't keeping up with the updates, and now it's been a year. I purchased the game, but it isn't horrible in any way. But no one seems to be interested in playing it. It has a great vibe, but no one in the gaming community seems to be interested. Because I was away, I'm wondering what the pinnacle of its collapse was. I'm hoping it makes some progress!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Igor Q. 519 Posted May 23, 2022 Game is being played, although players are not that vocal about it. There are constantly updates for the game and the new revamp of exploration mode made it definitely more interesting to play as a stand alone game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiritchaser28 918 Posted May 23, 2022 If you are looking for more players to play with I suggest going to their discord. It can be quite active with players sometimes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zarwil 392 Posted May 23, 2022 The unfortunate fact is that most games barely get played, even if they are good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadeye_Rob 905 Posted May 24, 2022 I’m no marketing expert by a long shot. However I’d say that most Steam products follow a similar curve. Early Access games get a lot of interest down to the Steam Algorithm, Product Marketing and a general optimistic public opinion on what the game will be at release. It’s a fair statement to say that Ylands hasn’t had the most favourable transition from Early Access due to the direction of its development. Things have, however improved substantially with further evidence of great things to come. As I said, I’m no marketing Expert but maybe a new refreshing marketing drive might help? The game is visually charming enough to win over a consumer comfortably. The message needs to get out that the Ylands experience is back! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They hired a new marketing director a few months ago and I believe even this part of the game is now being addressed in a lot of ways. As with anything Ylands however, patience is always required for good things to happen. I said it years ago, Ylands is definitely not a game for impatient people LOL. All I can say now is the years waiting for improvements to the actual exploration aspect of the game have finally come to fruition and it has been well worth the wait.
