Re: I think EA and Respawn have now abandoned this game..
I personally don't think the release of The Finals should ring any alarm bells.
Sure, it's possible playcount might dip at the start, as there is some hype for the game.
But this won't last forever, every game is unique in their own way and players that care about the specific uniqueness could return to Apex.
And well, players typically don't play one game at the time.
There are players that just straight up play only one game in a week, but usually a lot of players are interested in many different games, so they rather switch between these games during the week.
But let's hypothetically say The Finals is doing so well that Apex is losing a lot of players, what's the best thing EA/Respawn could do?
It might be worth to dive into what you would like to see happen with Apex, what would make it more fun to play for you?
