Why isn't Era Pc a success?
 

As the title implies, why? It's such a great game beside the expensive weapons.
Let me know in the comments below what you like, dislike and what stuff can implemented to enhance the gameplay?

It's because it's on PC

It was...10 years ago.

monthly subscription fee

^ when you can get the game on ios for free.

1. graal does no advertisement so word of mouth is the way it gets its players(i would say most pc players dont tell people they play graal)

2. most good pc gamers prefer challenging games/competitive community not chat rooms

OT: there are many things that can be done to improve pc graal but I doubt anything will be done since the priority is ios graal. I think most developers spend most of their time on ios servers or their own servers that probably wont go anywhere.

Subscription plans, plain and simple. Graal decided to use subscriptions, and it simply wasn't worth it. Very, very slowly some servers started to move towards free-access with gralatshops(where you could buy in-game items with IRL money) but it took too long.

Do realize Graal was asking I think... $40 a month to play. I may be wrong though, as I never actually purchased any subscriptions.

Just... very, very poor marketing on administration end, and the servers suffered because of it.

Stefan recently requested observer mode taken off but I don't know how that's going along. Anyway, subscription ain't bad, I mean it's revenue to keep up the servers and it only cost like what $5 a month to play? All it needs is a little money put into advertisement, and some in-game stuff you can buy with real money, hey people like to be good without actually working for it and let them.

Because most of Graal's pop today would have to use mommy's computer to play. And for the price it is, its not worth it, hell Minecraft is the same price. To the current playerbase, its obvious what would be a better investment.

Gold subscription is currently now free, so I don't know why the population has not risen.

Expensive weapons makes both servers un-likeable.

igraalers have spent too much time and money in the iphone servers so I dont think many of them see any reason to go be noobs in the pc version of their server.

because the PC Graal community as of today is composed 90% of players who started in 2006-2014 and are still only playing the game because they have no concept of what Graal was when it was actually good, so they're still addicted
and that number of players that started in this timeframe is very low, thus the community of today is very small

morale of the story is "you can't miss what you never had"

imagine eating saltine crackers for your entire life
you don't give a **** because it's all you've eaten so eating it offers the same experience every time, you don't even have a concept of what something that tastes better is like
the players who started in 2006+ and still play today, that's them

now imagine that you have been eating delicious ass pizza and KFC chicken for a few years, then all of a sudden you're given saltine crackers and you're told that this is the only thing you'll be eating from now on
those are the players who started in 2004 and before (which is when the game saw the most amount of players anyway)
it comes down to those players saying "what the ****, why would I continue to eat this terrible food, I will not accept this anymore and it's time to move on" which translates to "yeah, PC Graal sucks now, I'm out"

so in conclusion, this was PC Graal in for the first 5 or so years:

this is PC Graal in the past 8 or so years:

you have the palate of a goat if you're satisfied with the past 8 years vs. the first 5 years

furthermore, look at this:

it's not related to Era, but more to PC Graal in general, but that's the shining talent that UN has managed to produce in 17 days
37-22 is what the typical decent-tier sparrer would poop out in an hour's worth of spars on UN in "the good ol' days"

the game is dead and I literally feel sorry for the people who are still trying to develop servers for the PC platform

dang thallen dat analogy.

u either win pc graal or you die

Era PC is a very political server.
