Just recently I’ve noticed a ton of players in my shards now whereas before I barely ever saw anyone. Every day after 120 and I’d barely be seeing anyone and now (started ~2 days ago) I’m seeing a ton of people from my server alone. I’m not sure if they changed anything and this was a common complaint here so I wasn’t the only one but damn I love it. Feels great doing WQs now and seeing tons of people.
As for Asmongold, I used to watch his streams a ton but haven’t really watched any recently (or any at all sadly) but he complains about the game a lot so that’s not really something new. I’d much rather he point out obvious flaws (like the lag issue) since he has the platform to make shit like that noticeable which he does like in this case.
