ArcheAge Has Flopped

ArcheAge has become nothing more than a flop much like WildStar. 2014 had huge aspirations and had many titles that were meant to redefine the industry and to bring change, and all that can be seen is disappointment.

Where Did It Go Wrong?

ArcheAge failed to deliver on the hype that it generated. The issue with many games is they will come into the market and generate this huge hype with trailers, and developer talks that make the games seem exciting and often times what ends up happening, is that they are not able to deliver on what has been said.

More importantly ArcheAge has a really bad launch players had to wait several hours to log in and when they did they were often met with an army of bots that were squeezing the very life from the zones. ArcheAge which had touted its abilities to stop bots has had one of the worst launches because of them and players quickly left the game.

Where Did They Go?

Many players have returned to World of Warcraft which has seen a large spike in their population ever since the release of Warlords of Draenor.

As it stands ArcheAge is going to have a very rough patch in 2015 as it tries to get back some of its lost players.
