idk, its more like the problem to keep players, like you said, i even tried to convince some friends to play it but they said its shit and boring after i showed them, ofc i know that RP games arent the thing for everyone but again like you said there has to be something that keeps people
first step would be the new intro that you already work on, i guess
second step is to give people things to work on or to work towards to, (i thought that would be the new resource system but that got fucked up, it even made my activity drop)
