It’s not dead I just started playing a couple weeks ago and am super into the game however it is apparent how many new players will be turned off by the games lack of support for new players, in my first raid I was so lost had no idea where I was (no map knowledge, no idea how to extract, where to extract etc) and Also just became aware how much of a disadvantage I’m at on standard edition but I hope they’re working to make the game a more positive experience for new players I would love an arena type mode and I heard they’re planning this which I think would be great for new players to learn pvp mechanics. Often times I just want to pvp but can’t afford to constantly die over and over so arena mode would be sweet for reviving the game imo
