That's great news!

[SekoETC]

Wait, what - there's a zoom option??

[andrzejek]

yes

[Wolfsong]

The Polish players never really suffered much of a decline. It was the English side of things that was dying off, which is still evident if you zoom to roughly the same period of time --

ENGLISH PLAYERS


TOTAL PLAYERS

I wonder why that is? I assume that the Polish have access to all of the competing games and time-sinks out there just as the English speakers do. Why the disparity in participation?

[SekoETC]

I can't see the zoom anywhere. Is it browser specific? I'm on Firefox.

Only the poles increased ,everything else drops . Hopefully the poles can get gab / more staff seeing they are the biggest group in game

Select a partial rectangular area with your mouse (drag corner to opposing corner).

I think the zoomed areas are too small to call it a trend. Over the years the declining trend is still there.

Being able to play in your own language is a big feature for Polish players. For English players it doesn't feel as a feature at all, i guess. This probably explains the continuing popularity of the Polish zone vs. the slowly declining English zone.

Oh wow, that is so unintuitive. I've often clicked on the yellow balls and nothing happens, so it never crossed my mind to try dragging.

Did anybody look at the number_of_food_days? I bet that drop is due to the nerfing of cooked/grilled meat. Quite impressive.

From what I have seen, it appears that they enjoy slow roleplaying games as a country. The majority of these slow types of roleplaying games that I have played either are dominated by the Polish or have no Polish presence at all. This is possibly due to these types of games usually being made by small groups who can't afford a translator and so can't reach the Polish market. There is a lot of demand but not as many of these types of games that Polish can access so the ones that they can, they fill out quickly.

Basically, I think it is a cultural thing as well as not having as many competing games in this genre.

The Polish are clearly ramping up for a full scale invasion of the English.
