How do you think Lorwolf will do long term?

NGL I hope it does well

I find the gameplay loop way more enjoyable than say FR

Lioden is my best comparison but I like the quality of life stuff here (autobattling, no wolves dying, etc)

That being said I do think they need to fix the pebble economy and add more pebble wearables, as a main drive behind pet sites is dressing said pets up

What do you all think? I hope it has above 500 active daily users and continues to grow (Wish there was a counter on site rip)

I do also hope Lorwolf will do well, I love this game so much. I did take a break from Lioden and played Lorwolf and it was a nice change. The game is certainly up for changes, but since it's so new there's time for them!

I hope so. :) I’ve been waiting for a wolf breeding game like this forever. There are lots of features and updates i would love to see. If they stay consistent I think more and more people will be interested

Right now? I am not optimistic. Unless they start balancing stuff pretty severely and fix the common complaints people are gonna leave.

Still, we haven't had a major update yet since the site is new, and I do hope it all goes well! We can only hope :)

Seconding Pyromancer. Right now it doesn't look great, we've had a lot effort put in by mods doing their best to put forth a show of diplomatic platitudes (no shade to the mods, they are literally doing their job/what they volunteered for), but very little solid action by the Devs to show they're taking it seriously behind the scenes. Much generic “we hear you!”'s and updates with bizarre priorities, which you'd think would be more focused on active community feedback on the site itself, QoL and balance changes to make participating in the professions make more sense, and addressing people's general concerns right now. :/

I think people wouldn't be so impatient so “"early”" if the site hadn't gone through an Alpha, a Beta, a second Beta/Early Access extension and then a delayed launch (which was fine!) without implementing any actionable changes to things that players of those sessions were requesting or raising the most concern about. I don't mean to imply they didn't do anything, and they certainly switched some things around… but they left a lot on the floor that would have made sense to start with first, too.

I'd love Lorwolf to do well, nothing would make me happier! I won't be deleting my account or anything. But unless things take a sharp turn for the better soon I'm afraid we are gonna start seeing a slow bleedoff of active users. Can a site come back from a botched launch? Certainly, but people aren't going to wait forever for it to happen, and once that initial slough-off hits, it can be really hard to come back from.

I understand being worried, but saying the launch is botched is a little harsh in my opinion. I hope your concerns are addressed though. I love the art and am happy to support artists/game devs when I spend hours on a game

I want nothing more than the game to succeed. I really enjoy it and want to stay long term. I'm sure a lot of people do. Apparently the devs will be addressing a lot of concerns in this month's update so I'm looking forward to that.

I personally have stopped playing as intensely. I like breeding pretty wolves, but they're hard to sell unless they're like G2/3 Bracchus. Yesterday I just turned a bunch of them loose. If you don't have a bunch of MS to spend, there's not a lot to do after a while.

I think I see a LOT of people selling their MS for flight rising gems and that should be a slight hint already that things are not going so well.

That June dev update needs to address some major things, as I think it will be the tipping point of how many people fully cash in or not.

Don't get me wrong, I WANT this game to succeed, but I am with Reave on the mindset. Words from the poor Community Manager and stuff only goes so far, action needs to be done by the devs and quickly. Bugs and lag is one thing, tonedeaf changes like 100 knucklebones and reduced WW encounters is another. (I know they reverted it but the fact that they thought it was okay at all worries me enough.)

I think it will do well in the long run! Think back to when FR first started— the site would be down for multiple days a week and it took a few years before they could even open registration completely due to the lack of power that the server had. As long as we see an update addressing and fixing things soon, I think everything will be fine!

@Coop7011

Personally with the gem thing, I think its the opposite. People really want MS right now and lots of people have gems and are looking to trade, driving up the exchange rate to 1:15, even though logically it should be 1:10. I think its just that people have picked up on this, and are buying MS here instead of otherwise just buying the gems on FR. You could spend 10 dollars on FR and get 10 dollars worth of gems, or you could spend 10 dollars on LW and get 15 dollars worth of gems.

I only did a quick look in some of the current exchange threads but it seems that the MS are actually selling, even at that inflated price, which I think would be a good sign. I also checked the recent threads on FR and it seems most of them are people trying to buy MS, not sell them, but I didn't dig around for long so idk. Take all of what I said with a grain of salt though, these are just my observations and assumptions.

On the other hand, yea, the way they launched knucklebones was very odd. I still can't figure out that decision.
