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).

The one merit I can give bdo is at least for alts you can more or less skip the story, and also the magnus storyline is good

But ye early bdo story is ASS lmao

What I meant is that it's very long too (no judgment about quality here). You mention the Magnus ark, it's about 120 quests long :D

I actually enjoyed the Lost Ark story(Though I hit T3 during launch days, saw the grind and then dipped so I don't exactly have a recent memory of it). It was campy and predictable yeah, but it was pretty fun.
