Most Steam users buy the game and only play for a few hours because of a lackluster server list, then uninstall it forever. First impressions are important to maintain a large userbase.
They might try out singleplayer but either get overwhelmed by a blank slate or get bored by a lack of add-ons because they can't figure out where to get them. Implementing Steam workshop support or baking in a RTB or BLG features would greatly help with add-on discovery.

All good hosts and add-on creators that are still around nowadays joined before the release on Steam. The ones that are still around are in college or have jobs and families and can't give the game their full attention anymore.

Badspot told me before that he's made something like 2 million dollars off of blockland and he's still using that cash alone to support himself.

A lot of the time, the people complaining haven't even played the game regularly in years and likely would find something to complain about even if an update did roll out. They aren't helping anything. Meanwhile, there are people working on a spiritual successor for Blockland with a game engine with more flexibility, that will improve upon the original concept. It seems natural that the people actually interested in the game will get their fix, it is only a matter of time. If you want Blockland, loving play it. It is done.

You better watch your tone, stuffbird. Don't go saying "Let it go, the game had its time" to someone who clearly wants an insight on what the hell has happened to this community in the last few years. People have their childhood stored on this game and forum and a group of people making a game for the soul purpose to /try/ to be like it will never satisfy them. It is not Blockland, they care about Blockland not another game trying to mimic it. Don't come to a thread about someone who is genuinely upset about what has happened to this game trying to cram your fascist Brickadia advertisement bullstuff down their throats. You can sorry excuse my ass, no one gives a stuff about what someone else has to offer when they want something else.
