There are other forums where better discussions can be had on games. This is mostly for buying selling. Most people don’t feel the need to participate.

I think it is not about people not being interested in Pakgamers anymore, but they being busy in their job and personal life. I remember there was a time when I used to visit Pakgamers everyday, then I got into university and could not participate as much and later got job and this is my 3rd visit in a year. So yeah, life does get harder and busier after job and those old active members also probably have their own jobs and priorities now so they cannot participate like they used to. furthermore, as some members mentioned that now people are not into forums so this sums it all. Old members are getting busy in their life and new members are not as participative. Thus, the low activity.

Youtube Facebook and whatsap has taken over these forum type of platforms... Now mainly active portion on PG is market place and rest is dead my suggestion/wish is if PG turns into an eBay like auction website that would be great because current feedback system on PG is quite similar to eBay but that is only possible if we have PayPal like payment platform too.

They generation who was active members of PG got busy job and family responsibilities ,many people are still not much aware of PG as they are more inclined towards FB or twitter social media has killed much of forum ,these are few causes i recon. We need new people to come pass on the PG ,its one of the best forum i never had any prob here i have been a member from many years It hurts its getting dead day by day

The priorities change and then the faces since people are replaced but they are always around.
The number of registered users on PG may still surprise you. The fact is that our gaming life may be over and replaced by some other hobby. I used to be a PC gamer and loved the buy / sell forums but then switched to console and never looked back. The forum though is still here and when i need something, i know where to look.

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
