Well, it has came to the point where the game has been forgotten. They claimed a zombie update last year. Still hasn't come, and the game hasn't progressed at all. This went from one of the funnest games by Atelier to one of the most boring. I would really like some changes. Such as remembering we exist?

For the most part, I'm putting any big hopes on hold until Dead Maze is released.

I've given up hope completely, and I was a devoted follower.

I don't really care if they don't update it, I just like the game

I can't even play the game anymore. All the rooms are so quiet, and it's hard being a starter with nothing to look out for.

mhm.

I rarely go on, but the numbers dwindled from 20 in most rooms to only about 5 that are inactive. It would be nice to get back into the game, and someone should do a gameplay video to bring back some players.

its hard to find a good battle nowadays :/

Activity is always put in room 1, as all the people known from fortoresse go there. Also it's usually the log-in room anyways. Quite unfortunately, however, it's the only room where there are people. Sometimes you can find room 2 or 3 having a small amount of people ranging from 6 - 10, otherwise it's just empty or with 5 people max.

Though I know that Atelier801 will and has claimed to have not given up on their previous games (fortoresse, bouboum, nekodancer, etc.), I highly doubt there will be any line of updates in the near-distant future. Even after Dead Maze is released, if it becomes a hit like TFM, they'll put any spare time into that, leaving little to no room for these games at all. That means not even consideration for updates or ideas.

Don't get me wrong, but anytime there's a new game in the makings, there's hype all around. But when it releases, it trends only for a little bit until its activity dwindles down to nothing.

Like Neko?

I'm not even going on anymore
I went on like once
and then I gave up

Jerb you missed the reunion.

Okay, so... The actual solution would be bring LOTS players to Fortoresse, so it will get more "popular", and Admins maybe see it. Maybe.

If any of their games show a large growth in activity and interest, there is no doubt that they will check it out and see how long the activity lasts. If it lasts for a long time and looks promising they will most likely look into updating the game or implementing new things.

Today I have been looking at how many people playing each Atelier 801 games, right now this is how many people.

Transformice - 5814
Nekodancer - 27
Fortoresse - 82
Bouboum - 39

Ranking: (Most to least)
1st Transformice
2nd Fortoresse
3rd Bouboum
4th Nekodancer

I hope this will make you guys think twice.

82 to 5814 people is a BIG difference. More than 40x the own number. So... Yea.

@Brandonnst, Atelier's main game is Transformice so of course it would have more people playing it than fortoresse. But other Atelier's game, as you can see, have not many people playing. Fortoresse has 82 people playing, and the other two games has an average of 33 people playing. Compare that, fortoresse has 49 more people playing.

They aren't going to revisit Fortoresse or any of their other games besides Transformice for a fairly long time, if at all even -- It's just fact by this point and common sense that putting time into these games now is only gonna cost them more than it's actually worth. It's been said many times before but it's been clear that Fortoresse (and any other game they release that under-goes similar interest without becoming popular) is/was just gonna be forgotten in the first place.

I think Bouboum and Nekodancer are forgotten like Fortoresse.

Atelier just works for Transformice, it's their money source.
