  • Animal Jam 2.. the largely anticipated game/project coming from WildWorks announced almost a year ago at this point. But.. Where is Animal Jam 2 and is it still even happening? In this video I discuss why I believe Animal Jam 2 is NOT happening, why it was largely hopeful/wishful thinking on WildWorks' end and why it would be largely redundant for them to resurrect this idea.

    They should take away memberships in ajc if they're going to literally do nothing for the player base itself, because ajc is not playable without a membership. I get their main money maker is ajpw, but people are still investing their time and money into ajc which is a continuously dying game.

      @CheesusChrist-px1ok 4 місяці тому +3

      Heck Nahhh trading is a huge part of why the game is still active, and spikes are a HUGE currency in the game. This would severely affect the rarity system and the already screwed up economy. Plus, like the other person said, most of the players who still play ajc are older and only play for the trading. Everything else in the game is targeted at children, which is highly unappealing coming from someone who is now 21 and started playing when I was about 10. Plus, everyone who does have spikes would be FURIOUS because all of the other items they put into getting those spikes would be lost and they’d be left with a useless item. I just got a bunch of spikes and I traded away a lot of old items that went up in value since I stopped playing a long time ago, and I would never get those items back, my account value would be essentially zero if everyone could get a spike. If they lose all of their value, I would quit entirely and so would a lot of other people. It’s not like club penguin where there was no trading system, so adding back items doesn’t affect the value.

      @pillowscout 3 місяці тому +10

      Disagreeing with the tradeaholics who have expensive outfits just to have it. Wildworks need to make the game playable for reasons other than having an outfit that's "worth a lot." It's a far stretch from 2014 when adventures first released and people genuinely enjoyed it. Nobody grinds adventures anymore because exploit losers got it patched. It's really tiring. The 1% tradeholics have pushed out a HUGE chunk of people: there are people who would have enjoyed the game without the terrible economy. Just because Tradeholics are the only people present DOES NOT MEAN THEY REPRESENT EVERYONE WHO PLAYED, EVER. Survivor bias to the max.

      @@pillowscout I only partially disagree. WildWorks needs to focus on their existing playerbase, not the millions who have aged out of the game. Either they completely abandon AJC and modernize Animal Jam enough to actually appeal to the current generation of children, or they keep the game around for the sake of a small, loyal community that they still have. If most of their community is filled with traders, then doing something as egregious as slapping every trader in the face by bringing spikes back into the store is 100% how they kill their game permanently.

      The main thing is that they WANT to add new content. But the game is still running on flash. It's been stated before that even adding the recolor items is difficult- they're not lazy, they're working with outdated software that makes it incredibly difficult to add new content- that's why they wanted to rebuild the game! It would make new content much easier to add to the game. I truly do hope we get some new stuff soon too, but with the crumbling state of the game I don't think its likely.

      One of the biggest downfalls was that flash closed down. It wasn’t even the game itself, it’s simply because it became slightly less accessible vs. being a browser game. That alone caused a huge downfall in players. Not that it’s their fault, but after the closing of flash they almost abandoned the game entirely and started favoring play wild, feral, etc.

      @@Obzcurity they could, but I don’t know if it would guarantee more players. It’s still the same thing as downloading an app, except you’d have to download it through another engine which adds an extra step vs. simply downloading it off their page. The game isn’t necessarily inaccessible, but people are more likely to turn it down if they have to download an app to play. The simplicity of having it on a browser made a decent impact on the player count. I remember asking myself “seriously, I have to download an app just to play animal jam now? Thanks flash”.
      I do agree with you that the player base would go up if they released more updates and content. I also think it would make a huge difference to add mature servers ( not servers to be inappropriate in ofc, but ones that are less censored and meant for the older player base since a large portion of players are adults or adolescents now). They could do advertising as well, I discovered the game on the tv one day when I was about 10, that’s how I discovered most of the online games I played. There’s honestly a lot they could do but it’s really dependent on their funding

      Well, money wise they have good reason to focus on pw. That is where a vast majority of their income arrives from. Plus, mobile games tend to make a lot more money than people may realize, because of how easy they are to play anywhere. You don’t need a computer or console to play ajpw, which makes it a much more appealing choice for those who do not have one, and the only way to play aj at all. It also doesn’t help that flash closed down, a huge portion of players stopped playing after they moved to a desktop app.

Ever since Feral I do not trust Animal Jam will make a game in the full best interests of the players when I believe they are greedy and would fill any other game they make with microtransactions or completely shut the game down when they do not see immediate profit from it. Even if they did release it and it did get somewhat popular, once they see more profit, they will shut the original version down.
