Is PVZGW2 dying?
It all started with the "Trouble in Zombopolis: Part One" update, infamous for the character tuning that came with it.
Among the changes, increased Citron and Frozen Citron's damage, and increas...

Well, I can't find any players in multiplayer. Is it because nobody is playing this game anymore? I just bought this game yesterday...
when there is a community portal up the size of people playing normal multiplayer suffers greatly so thats most likely what you are seeing also the time of day also has a factor :P granted tho a huge chunck of the communty did go back to gw1 since the zombopolis update and even more during the whole hit detection bug that took MONTHS for popcap to fix
Nope. Can't find a single player in that portal either.
So people are now going back to GW1? Will I find people there in the multiplayer mode? I will be playing on PC unless there are a lot more player in PS4.
So are the reason why nobody is playing this game anymore is because the chaotic character balance problem and the horrible RNG? I just downloaded GW1 and to my surprise I actually found matches for both coop and PvP. Does this mean that GW1 has better balance between characters?

If you are finding empty lobbies in PC then you will definitely be more players on PS4. I play GW2 pretty much every day and have no problems finding full or nearly full teams for almost any play mode.

I haven't played any online multiplayer game on PS4 since Destiny. You still need the PS Plus subscription to be able to play online, right?
I play on PC and never have issues finding games, even in Cats vs. Dinos which I know a lot don't like much. I focus on Turf Takeover mostly for normal MP games but I had no issue with the other mystery portal games either. As an important point to this, I don't see the same people all the time either which I did when I was playing Battleborn, now that's a game that is dying, at least on PC.
I have no idea how many people play or have played at peak but this at least indicates to me that people are playing frequently which is great.
Edit: I do want to address the key situation however. The first week I got no key but got them all in the following 4 mystery portal events and got the 2 new characters over this weekend. Some people don't have many or any keys at all and this is a brick wall from them enjoying the new content in full.
The trials themselves can be viewed as the challenges to acquire the new characters rather than the RNG for the keys so perhaps changing the key rate in the red chest to 100% till you have all 4 would be best for the community.
