We've lost almost 1k players since March, with no end in sight. There's been no direct response to this issue or to the wider economic dysfunction within the realm. Phased release has been a failure, and using saturation as a benchmark for phase advance was an idea that has both discouraged new players from joining the game and frustrated long term players, a number of which have left the game either permanently or temporarily. As the existing player base has moved on to the next industry, it has left early, small industries dysfunctional for new players compared to R1. Now prolonged recession is causing stagnation of the latest industry and boredom among the player group. When a fully saturated industry like gas is better than the brand new auto industry on day one, there's a problem. I don't see this dysfunction getting any better, in fact I think it will get worse and the worst of the problems with the R2 economy are ahead of us. Something needs to be done to attract more players to R2, and to help discourage existing players from leaving the game.

Personally, I think the problem is that people don't have time to control two separate businesses throughout their days. I dedicate only 15 minutes to my R2 business each day and will check my R1 periodically. It's simply that I don't have the time to keep switching back and forth between them. It makes me contemplate ending my R2 business.
