also those players you listed were not long time players, those left years before them.
EvonNoryoziki: it is not my fault that it is popular. I made it in 45 minutes to test how to make nice terrain and because I was bored. People seem like the orb. cope.
There's nothing at all that's special about it, I thought it was a bomb until it wasn't. This is literally just a sphere! BRUH. I know it's art, but still. There's now a lot more crap saves because long-time players with truckloads of experience just left because they were ignored (Jerehmia). I dunno, man. Maybe YCY succumbed to this, he was pretty good.
this kind of looks like you're on a moon and the moon is orbiting a gas giant
There was a period with a lot of activity and good saves that ended just a week or 2 ago. There are very few people who manage to produce good saves constantly, you hit plateaus of capability and inspiration. What is a bit worrysome is that some good saves go unnoticed and barely make the FP because of the skill difference between the creator and the audience, for instance lots of subframers quit because they were very poorly rewarded for saves that took weeks or even months to make.
It does seem like TPT is dying accoring to Google Trends
Everything on FP seems fine and effortful to me
NoArtOnPhysicsGame: because TPT is mostly dead and almost all decent save makers are gone.
