Admit One

It's because of me right?

nah babe.

The place just feels a bit too empty compared to like 1 year ago. There are plenty of members still lurking around here from back then but no one posts as much as they used to. I post daily in every offtopic thread whenever i can but it feels like applying a small bit of butter on a very large bread if you know what i mean xD

besides i didnt say i'm gonna leave, just said that it's been going on in my mind lately that i should take a small break or something.

It's natural for most fan communities to go through dry spells, especially after the latest installment has been thoroughly dealt with. In this forum's case, there is over a year left before the next game will be released and very little information has been released to the public as of this point. I predict that, by the middle of 2014, we're going to see a surge in new members once Frictional starts actively promoting it again.

I myself don't have much attachment to this community. No offense intended to you folks, but in my past experiences with forums I've seen how groups can quickly diminish once their mutual interest is over. In this case it was a game about Victorian pig-men. I'll still lurk around this website in order to get periodically updated on SOMA's progress, and I'll definitely want some place to make sense of its plot when 2015 rolls about.

But it's always a good idea to step back and make sure you don't get too dependent on any single community.
