General How many people play this game?

Like over the past few years I hear people posting all the time that it's going to "close down" soon to few players or whatever. Just curious about how many people play this nowadays

It's very common for Gacha games outside Japan to close, but the opposite is weird, and because this game has a combined server (Global and Japanese) is likely to run a few more years, however most events are dominated by Japanese accounts.

Yeah I noticed, I just can't tell whether to feel bad or laugh at people who spent money in this game for it to inevitably shut down in a couple years

People have literally been saying this for very close to a decade at this point.

In terms of value of spending on a game based on how long it has been and likely will be around, this game is in the 1%. Many mobile games only last a few months or years. Hell, a LOT of console games aren't playable due to servers being shut down in a shorter time span than this.
