All games like this have massive daily player drop offs a few months after release.

This makes me feel super old, because I must have played Quake 1 daily for 8 straight years. Same with Counter-Strike. I'm still not used to people changing games every few months.

PvP centric games tend to have way more consistent player bases than PVE games, sadly.
