What Killed the Clash of Clans Franchise?

  • Clash of Clans and it's sequel Clash Royale are 2 of the most financially successful mobile games to have ever hit the market. Through both their style and charm, as well as their distinct business strategy. But rarely do I ever see anyone bringing these games up outside of a few memes last year. So today I'm going over the story of Supercell, to see what events lead to the 94% decline of what used to be the most financially successful games.

    The game has reduced upgrade times over the years and increased ways to get loot. Magic items, clan raids, etc. The game is better than it ever was, but I will admit there is something nostalgic thinking about when TH10 was the max level and global chat was still out. They need to bring back global chat.

    I think the point about dedicated players is completely fair. A lot of Clash of Clans players have been playing for a very long time, and are less likely to quit. I feel like new players who are just getting the game are not nearly as likely to stick with it. Probably why there's not a ton of growth anymore.

    I started playing clash of clans again last year, i went from TH10 to a TH11, and from my experience it is much dead-er than in it's prime (when i started), but it's still decently alive. I will say tho, since the global chat has been taken away, the game feels more isolated and so it makes it harder to see, meet or talk to other active players. And it also makes it hard to actually guage how dead or alive the player base actually is

Because the last 2 videos from this series I have watched has had an ending where it wasn't really dead, and changing the title would feel a bit less clickbait-y, even though I do enjoy the content you post

      That's fair, what killed was always just the name of my take on the "Rise and Fall" format, the titles are simply branding to get people to watch the documentaries as when they're more obvious people are less likely to watch (Trust me, I've tried). I'll keep it the same for now but if I do more videos with the "it didn't really die" vibe i'll switch so that it would work better overall, but having one video of five be called something with completely different branding and formatting just doesn't look nice, and at the end of the day the content of the video matters a whole lot more than the title, so getting one that gets views is more important to get people to see the actual message.

    I feel like a major factor to COC being less popular nowadays is the fact that after town hall 11, the game becomes exponentially harder. You can’t spawn lightnings and dragons and get away with it anymore and it requires actual meta armies to be used at a chance of doing relatively well. For the casual player base, a majority of people have busy lives such as jobs, school sports, etc. They don’t have time to spend hours practicing attacks, they just want to get on, upgrade something, attack once or twice and go on with their day.

      @@_fuushi for me its because of these 3 reasons
      1 . NightBase - it was officially the beginning of the downfall of clash of clans imo . Instead they should have added more features for the main base like day : night cycle , weather cycles . People always asked them for a day and night cycle for the main base along with weather features like rain , snow etc . Instead they added a whole new base which didn't quite succeed and eventually lost it's hype
      2 . They made it into a battle royale game with the rise of battle royale genre - Base skins , seasons only made the game worse .
      3 . Game is old - Be honest , the game is now at least 10 years old so eventually most of the players grew up and out of it including me . I started playing in 2016 when i was 12 years old and now I'm 19 and Don't find the game quite interesting as before because of the lack of good updates . Most of the games die after a while , specially online games . Only a very few amount of games last even 10 years after the release like minecraft and gta games . So most of the players grew out of it if I'm being honest

    Clash of Clans still has a very large loyal player base. Those who played in the early days, still plays it. More importantly, you don't spend too much time to play this. If you are busy, you can play this game once or twice a day for 20 mins at a time and still make progress. Weekends too.
    Newer younger players also have a hook as its not that hard to grow from the beginning.

    The main reason Clash of clans dwindled out is that Supercell, at the peak of the game, did not release new content for a huge gap in their peak era. Town hall 10 through Town hall 11 was the peak of the game but updates were few from what I only imagine being because they believe the game was so successful that they found the ultimate balance, which quickly backfired since they later found out they have peaked. Nowadays,these town hall levels feel like you are barely starting the game. I've actually replayed clash of clans starting last year and I think the game is way more fun than it used to be due to all the new content such as Clan Capital and Magic Items that help patch out a rushed base.

    I remember when I was small, I was only exposed to the story amd level-based games like Shadow Fight, Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, etc which had an ending. So when I heard of Clash of Clans, I would always get confused and ask my friends who played it at the time as to "When does the game end?", and got shocked when I heard it would never end. Because 10 year old me felt it wasn't possible for a game to not end. Like, I legit thought that Temple Run and Subway Surfers would end after some running! So, it was kind of a shocker for me.

      I've argue its the magic items that provide insane value to a player to the point that Engineered Rushing a base (This means upgrading All collectors, Barracks, Storages and Laboratory to unlock all troops including super): can take up to two years to fully max out.
      The game is still very pay to win, at least in the competitive scene. This is because a player who gems to max once an update starts has more time to test out the new content and see what does/doesn't work.

    What I really love about COC is when I met new people by joining to new created clans where I became the co leader. I've found my clan from the global chat, I am just a low TH that time and I became a Co Leader whereas one Co Leader was so upset for me being a co leader. It was so fun when the leader defended me. I was into the game because my relationship to that player. I learned a lot from him etc. Until I stopped playing COC for a year then I've found out that he also stop playing. It was sad and I found new freind with a new clan. He is also the Co Leader and I've learned a lot from him and I constantly recieved donations.
    Unfortunately I stopped again, when I decided to play COC again for almost 2 years. I was super upset! When Global Chat is not available anymore. I couldn't find new freind and clan..
    Basically Supercell don't want players to buy and sell an account. They wanted players to spend gems or money to create new account and upgrade very fast.
    Unlike other online games, global chat is a nuisance, but for COC it's damn part of my gaming experience that is one of the best mechanic that the COC had.
