Reply To: Why Mafia community is dying

I could still suggest that the current community here can keep things going even with a few active members. I know sites that have even fewer members still working fine. The thing is that cult games like Mafia will always have fans, no matter what.

The key is to keep this site friendly for its users, it would be great if everyone would participate in making the community better. Topics like these shouldn’t be condemned, they just show the truth about the current situations that can be made better.

The members of some smaller communities are friends with each other, and just the individuals themselves bring each other to the site, not just the theme of the forum (for example a game.) Some big communities lack actual friendy interaction between members, and some members might become isolated with nothing to do on the forum if the topic doesn’t interest them.

Mafia is a unique game because of it’s modifications. People can always create mods with new ideas and a new release might bring gamers together.

Mafia 2 was a big disappointment for some fans, and it somewhat caused the community to split. Even if the sequel was not so good, it doesn’t really give the original a bad name.

For older fans of the serie reviving the community can be much asked. Mafia 2 might have not brought new content to the serie, but we can always make new things ourselves.

You can always hope for new things to come, such as Mafia 3. 2K might have learned something from Mafia 2, and we don’t know what sort of a game Mafia 3 would be.

Just my two cents once again, thanks if you bothered to read.
