There’s a lot of excitement in the community about the prospect of attracting 20,000 players across all platforms. User dalon2883 commented, “The game is already growing before it becomes free-to-play…now it’s at 4k players,” highlighting a significant increase in player numbers following the open beta update. This optimism is spreading quickly, and many believe that a steady growth trajectory could take us all the way to, and possibly beyond, our goal. The general feeling is that if Hi-Rez keeps adding new characters and refining gameplay elements, they stand a good chance of attracting more players. In fact, someone jokingly remarked, “Definitely should; this version of the game is better than Smite 1,” demonstrating just how positive people feel about the improved experience.
