A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

When I got into HLL back in 2021, it was a one of a kind experience of strong community, teamwork, and a balance of realism, strategy, and "arcadey" enough to not get boring. I am fairly concerned that T17 will not be able to maintain the games popularity / enjoy-ability going forward.

My hope is that they can turn it around, but knowing how modern game development goes from larger studios, it's not looking good imo.

Anyone who's lurking around here, I'd like to hear your thoughts on what you think the future holds for this game, whether it still has a chance or is really doomed.

I think a lot of the concerns are being overstated. Yeah, there's been a rough start for the new team, but acting as if the game is dying just because of a bad patch is maybe a little premature. Give it six months and see where things are at.

End of the day, it's a really good, really fun game. There are still some badly needed features, like a party system (insane that that's still missing), but it's not exactly going down in flames.
