Actually, the player count hasn't gone anywhere. It's the same steady amount as it has been for months now. The only reason it's dropping is because people quitting Graal in general or because of *cough* WotLK *cough*. Seriously, some of my CS classes were almost empty cause of this crack addicting game; it's really pathetic. The only reason I didn't buy it is because I didn't want to end up like some of my friends and skip school/work on a regular basis just for a stupid game.

But anyways. What makes games last long and entertaining is more features. Why do you think WoW has so many players and ones that have stayed on it for years; because of it's graphics? No. It's because they have a **** load of stuff to do and work for. If Era were to be more creative and imagitive it could really bring a lot more people to the server.

Take Runescape as another example. Have you seen the graphics? I can't tell the difference between a tree and a wall; it really hurts my eyes. Yet, they maitain a high player count. Why? Because they have a lot of stuff to work on, mainly skill levels. Era needs to figure out ways to keep the players busy instead of doing the repetitive and pointless raidings. This is pretty much why I never joined a gang longer than a day, they are all the same.
