How come the game is not so popoular?

I have been playing this game for a few days.

I found that I could hardly meet other players. Everytime I finish the quests alone. And only several players will correspond to my questions and greetings.

I couldn't help wondering why there are so few people playing this game.

Could anyone tell me the reason?

    I believe in the  prosepect of this game. And I feel absorbed in it .

    I hope that the developers can advertise this game widely and make such a good game known by more people. Thus more people can join in this outstanding game and enjoy the fun it brings.

    Don't be so hurry, dreams never appear in front of you before you have done any hard work. Meanwhile it needs time to test this new game.

    Its not really popular for several reasons really.

     

    First of all its a 2D game which is a bit old hat in a world of 3D games.

     

    Also this game has a reputation on this site of very lame advertising methods.

     

    Let me explain that last bit. When this game was first put on this site within a hour of this happening several brand new accounts made up on the same day and at roughly the same time came on and hyped this game up to 10 points and then started posting positive comments in the Shadow of Legend Forums here.

     

    It was obvious that these accounts were from the same person  not just because they were all made at the same time but because the conversations they were having with themselves about how great this game was so false it was funny really.

     

    So right now the impression is that this is a MMO where every positive comment for this game is coming from a developers account alt.

     

    Also another reason this game isn't too popular is that this is still seen as an Asian game.

    This game isn't popular because it is a clone of the OLD MMOs.  Shadow of Legend has the classic kill x bring back y items quests, classic races, classic graphics, and classic grind.  And I am not stupid enough to not know that almost all the posts made in this forum are you devs talking, trying to attract more attention.

    Yea, the game would be a little classic, maybe this point could attract some people who love the past.

    It's also not popular because the devs keeps posting half baked attempts at trying to plug the game by impersonating current players!!! as an example ...please look upward........

    Half-witted dev activity aside, the game appears to be fairly generic.  There's nothing here that's out of the ordinary, and the MMO market right now is filled with games like this, that are just "typical".

    If this game did something unique, something that no-one else is doing (and, of course, something that MMO players would be attracted to) then it would get alot more attention then it is currently getting.

    Yea, I havent yet even finished downloading the game and I am doing my best to advertise this game to a mmorpg masses (wow channels in IRC) and all my friends.. Remainds me alot of Helbreath, Runescape and Ultima Online, which all were really great games. The graphs looks just fine and the game content really has potential... Well, for me its hard to say is it good game, but man, it has a great amount of potential!

    Advertisment is a good way, but the service for our players is still more important. No one want their role has any problem when they are enjoying.

    The devs also intend funding of the game through an item shop which will sell items to give big boosts in crafting, fighting, you name it. Not a very good way to go.

    with just that sentence you have just admitted you are either a developer on this little game or have been employed to come onto forums like this to try and hype it.

    at this point, i wish there was an ignore button

    Repairs are still pretty costly if we get killed over and over again by bosses over time so work is needed to improve here.  Some players like movement speed in Sand Beach to stay the same, but others like their different transformations of Sand Beach at cost of more gold.  Overall not many of us like Sand Beach no more because it’s expensive to choose a very fast speed and our gain is not as much as we get before.

    this can improve by making tortoise fee 10k and add in a new animal that runs faster than a tortoise slower than beetle at cost 20k (another insect).  Or you can move tortoise fee to 10k beetle to 20k and add in a new animal that takes runs faster than tortoise and beetle but slower than a boar it cost 30k (ie. Snake is good one) etc. etc
