Maybe I should log in too so I can get mentioned in the wiki as the last player. It will be my legacy.

You could be like the Noble 14, last Halo 2 players, except I bet when they take the servers down for this game no one will stay connected.

Idk... It sounds like s shitty legacy, but not gonna lie it's better than whatever legacy I leave myself.

I was watching a YouTube series recently about situations like this… online games that were pretty decent and still had servers but only 3-4 people a week signed on. Pretty entertaining.

Edit: looks like a few people do this. This is one I was thinking of: https://youtu.be/PGqyvq9l0Mo

Remind us, which part of The Day Before was decent again?

Yeah, it’s different because this game is apparently horrible. I’m sure not all the games he reviews are good, either… just that they’re theoretically viable and exist but hardly anybody plays them.

This reminds me of that one Halo game that kept going in the servers' final days, only Halo was actually worth something.
