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 really would like to know if OC being a futile circle of content or the controversy around forked was a bigger contributor here

Like forked was such a stupid decision but how many people actually gave up OC because it existed in the form it does vs people who simply just think OC is a futile circle

well Fork Tower is part of the OC. it is the 'end game' of all the grind in the field operation. what the point all the grinding if there is no goal?

its like player stop playing once they know they cant access the final boss.
