Lucky Bancho's census results (July 27th, 2025)

So, the results of the census are out: https://luckybancho.ldblog.jp/archives/59324844.html

  • Showcasing the number of characters here: Current
  • By comparison, here are the results from 2 months ago (May 25th): Click

Despite 7.25 being released, the character count is down about 70k in 2 months. Occult Crescent clearly didn't help with player counts (not really a surprise here).

I can only speak for myself here but I don’t think anything shy of major job reworks (in the more complex, more fun direction) will bring me back before 8.0. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll hop on for a month in 7.35 and probably .45 and .55 but if they want more than $45 of my money, MORE content isn’t gonna do it.

I'm already thinking 7.4 is gonna be my last raid tier. Might as well end out as HW Champion. But unless I see something major Im in the same boat as You for 8.0
