Maplestory is not dying, it is already deceased

ON TWITCH? with a game that's so small on Twitch due to lack of exposure?? are you kidding my ass, it is a decent metric do you know why? Exactly because of reasons above, learn something about Taiwanese and Chinese streamers and more stream sites and come back, also ignore my second example of 100+ viewers at 1 AM@Taiwan because it sure helps disprove my statement.
Malthe; Do you know how many views KMS gets on afreecatv for example? I am not mad at you, but you're right MS isn't that interesting to watch, it has lack of exposure on twitch, and smaller streams stream it, so it's decent at best especially on a western oriented site, I do not know why you disregard this fact, China&Taiwan&Korea have much larger services (in terms of their population) than Twitch that get better MS views.
You know it doesn't matter how weird you think it is that there's a small community of taiwanese players streaming and getting a stable set of viewers. But them getting their small and supposedly stable set of viewers does not at all speak for the game being active or doing well, as i said, at best it indicates a loyal and stable following, not a big one. You could never use a viewership that small to imply that there's a huge big thriving community and a game that does well.

Also maplestory lack of viewers is most definitely not from lack of exposure, infact maplestory is a fairly well known MMORPG even in the west, so if people cared to watch then they would have. So no, i'm not 'kidding your ass'. Your metric is pomegranate and you clearly know jackshit about streaming.
I mean runescape at times rivals world of warcraft in viewership on twitch, are we going to begin arguing that runescape is just as thriving and doing just as well as world of warcraft? Yeah i didn't think so. And i do not need to learn more about chinese or taiwanese streamers.

I mean, i have to ask, are you stupid? I don't think i could've been more clear with regards to not caring about how maplestory is doing. I was merely pointing out that the way you use twitch viewership to support your case shows that you don't know anything about twitch as a platform. I don't need to understand or know something about taiwanese or chinese or even korean streaming to make that claim. Because those things are entirely unrelated to what i was arguing to begin with. Which is what 60 viewers over 5 streams doesn't ever in any way imply anything for any game ever. Not that it's doing poorly and most definitely not that it's doing well.

And if you think 'exposure' is the reason why people don't watch maplestory on twitch then you're fairly delusional.
