Hello,
The present situation on BattleKnight makes server merge the only solution to keep bringing the financial profits for GF.
No of active players is too low to engage people and convince them to spend money on the game. Opening up new serwers so often brings short-term benefits as only in the first days players buy the rubies to achieve top position. After few weeks new server is almost empty.
Another server merge will motivate old, experienced players to start playing actively again for a long time, unlike people from the new servers that leave their servers as soon as a new one is available.
Not only the top players wait for the merging, tournament accounts will come back to life again and start competing in the tournaments with best players from different servers.
Last server merge in BattleKnight took place around 8 years ago and we believe you've got posibilities to do it again. In different games like Nostale they merged servers again this week.
Best Regards
