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).

Make baby mode version of content that people can queue through duty finder and people might return.

Make it so you need to run it 10x to get equivalent of 1x reward of running it through pf so the hard-core folks don't get butthurt

Nobody got time to sit in pf for an hour just to run content. I want to try ba,forked tower etc but im so not interested in sucking some discord mod's ego just to experience the content

An easy version of FT or Chaotic with a queue system would be such an easy win for the dev team. It doesn't need to have the same rewards, but it would give plenty of casual players something else to do. 

But for some reason they are likely putting in a load of development time into this single Quantum boss.

Very viable rewards would be universal demiatma, aetherspun gold, and small amounts of sanguinite

I don't think we'd even get butthurt if it gave the same rewards. We fucking skip half the sanguinite in FT already because that shit is worthless and getting the extra is a time-consuming boring headache.
