Dragonheir: Silent Gods

La Tale is a 2D side-scrolling fantasy MMORPG originally released in the mid-2000s in Korea and published in Western markets in 2014. It has maintained a small but steady niche player base over the years, mostly due to its unique art style and loyal community. However, as a relatively old game from a smaller publisher (Papaya Play), active daily players are likely now well below 1,000, consistent with the trajectory of similarly aged niche MMOs without major recent relaunches or expansions.

Dragonheir: Silent Gods is a cross-platform adventure and RPG published by Nuverse, released in September 2023. As a recent release by a notable publisher, it likely retains a moderate player base, but is not a massive mainstream hit. The game's presence on multiple platforms and active social engagement further support a fair active community. However, it does not demonstrate the persistent, large-scale multiplayer features of a true MMO.
