a restart without a proper update will be nothing else than a waste of time and effort, before doing a restart the gms should find out why dr fails to attract new people and how to fix it, here are a couple of reasons i can think:
old game: eye candy games will always attract more than an old game, unfortunately dr dosent have the manpower to do this so we have to leave it like it is.
game balance: a big portion of dr items/spells/stats and skill are outperformed, as a result most classes are a copypaste of each other creating monotony, this is something that can be solve with little manpower,with some buffs or small reworks this can be solved, for instance you can buff earth skilltree and make it 2h only, that thing alone can solve the h2 issue aswell as make earth skilltree more desirable when compared to lighting skilltree.
hardcore vs casual players: dr has always being a hardcore game, do note that by hardcore i am not refering to lving speed but rather for the fact that only the endgame seems to care and that one needs to spend lots of time or $$ in items just to remain competitive, if the game where to have more wars/quest or things to do for low lvs people may stop rage quitting when a dude with black name hit them fo 30k each time they try to join a pvp event, is it realy that hard to make snow wars happend more often?, and if posible cap the rares grade to say g6?, this is mostly to encourage new builds.
