idk but i think this game will last 2 or 3 months i feels it, i was looking for communities in facebook or reddit and i don't see any big ones, only 400 members community and so...

Played the beta and it wasn't that bad (not that great either) but the PVP centric nature of it just drives me away...

Pity they don't just put some PVE channels or something, pretty sure the game would be getting more attention.

i'm pretty sure it will be a nice surprise.
it was a good move to wait for a month after NW, now ppl are looking around, tired to kill the same 5 mobs and chase the turkey.
and it's F2P!
dont start with the p2w blabla, they dont put a gun on your head to buy stuff (and they 'll give a lot at start).

Don't start with the p2w blabla? Ok ok I won't, but don't worry Elyon will. They don't put a gun to your head? Wow so that should be the tagline to every p2w mmorpg out there eh?

Seems like the publisher's own expectations are fairly low for this one.

"For anyone who is still waiting for the full official launch to get into Elyon, that's still set for October 20th, at 10am Eastern/ 2pm UTC. There will be one server for North America and one for EU at first, with a queue set up available and decisions based on capacity as to whether more servers will come to be decided."

Considering how crappy New World turned out to be and people are slowly waking up from the "hype", I think Elyon might just surprise a lot of people how well it will do, just like Bless Unleashed did at the start, except I think Elyon will stick around at least until Lost Ark is released.

On a Tuesday night, there are still servers listed as TOO FULL to create characters on, out of the all the servers on the EAST and WEST regions, only One is listed as Low for it's population. That's doesn't sound like most people feel it turned out crappy.

I do hope that Elyon works out but if they only have one server for each region, it doesn't sound like their internal polling is expecting a great launch. But to say that Bless has ever done well is an over exaggeration, it has been re-release so many times and their last release on steam still doesn't have great reviews.

In a Bizzaro world NW is doing terrible, and Bless did fantastic I guess? I swear sometimes I think there we merged with an alternate universe somewhere along the way.

Why play elyon when you can play bdo which is superior in every way
New world is another beast altogether for different tastes but for the record it lost 1/3 of its population in 2 weeks which isnt too bad as most mmos lose about half their population in this time.
The only mmos that have actually grown after their start is eve and ff14

Because Elyon is much more fun to me than BDO? Also I highly doubt NW lost 1/3 of its players or do you have a source for this? About mmos that have grown after start, I know ESO and WoW both did this and probably lots of others as well.

New World definitely lost players. This is just normal and not unexpected.
It's not a fantastic game either. It's ok, but thats about it. There are a lot of flaws, rookie dev mistakes and issues with the game.

My two servers were HIGH and FULL til last week, with 700+ queues each day.
Now since this week they down to MEDIUM in prime time with zero queues.

And no, these were one of the last new servers they opened up here in EU two weeks ago.

superior in any way? Not at all.. BDO is a non stop gambling grind game with some pve elements and some good life skills. Elyon is a pvp centric game with much less grind and so much more group content.

Yeah BDO's combat is unique but just no fun in PVP at all.

I hope Elyon is doing well, for me it's the best MMO launching in 2021 by far.

servers listed as "TOO FULL" is not any kind of actual quantitative (or qualitative) description of anything at-all, where's any real numbers? Real UN-biased review and UN-biased statistics.
