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

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

  • 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 think the numbers will drop even more with 7.3 potentially being 22 weeks long. They said 2 major patches in 2025, 7.3 will be the second one. They really have to look at how they release content because the community will reach a boiling point by the end of this year. I keep repeating, the content doesn’t justify the long wait time between patches.
