No, TDX Is NOT Dying. Here's Why: | ROBLOX Theory 

Check out the game here: www.roblox.com/games/9577158746/Nightmare-Mushroom-Defenders?gameSetTypeId=100000003&homePageSessionInfo=a74fd297-c67e-4d17-9495-64295baffd54&isAd=false&numberOfLoadedTiles=50&page=sortDetailPageHome&placeId=9577158746&position=12&universeId=3565739699 Anyways guys uhhhh balls and stuff :p

People need to understand that just because a game has a few less players and is a little bit less fun a few weeks after you first played it, it's not dead. The amount of people I've seen/heard saying a game is dead when it still has a lot of players just because they find it boring is unbelievably high.

I would account school as well, most of the players are students, usually playing on a school night, but if it's the weekend, there's obviously gonna be a spike in players.

I'm glad someone had to say it.

You know something I find to be such a coincidence is the fact that I’ve been into like 6 of the same game this guy has been in (TDS, arcane odyssey, doors, TDX, and last but not least tower galactica) it’s just kind of crazy honestly.

Some TDS players on discord are so deadmad bout tdx existence that they could make the most stupid shit possible and argue with it

It's far from dead, but it is kinda hard to actively want to come back after getting juggernaut since expert does feel a bit too easy once you get it (not counting xmas nightmare since it's actually challenging). So I'm hoping they'll soon add stuff to keep replays fresh which definitely seems likely as john seems very passionate about this game

TDX enjoyers: 🗿 TDS enjoyers: 🗿 TB enjoyers: 🗿 Every tower defense game is good in its own way, just how TDX styles in realism, TDS styles in replay ability and TB styles in its own game modes such as versus!

Me when a BETA game is released with updating QOL feature like Artilery reload and rejoin feature just implemented called dying game, its called beta for a reason, not completed

I agree with NoL with this whole video, but what I agree the most is 6:35 when people say a 2 path upgrade is confusing, like that’s not even new, we have balloons tower defense with 2 and now 3 paths now and has been there for a very long time, we have tower blitz that also has the same setup, and now Tower defense X,but not only that but John literally showcases ever tower when he updates the game and shows them their pros and cons for both paths, something you don’t see for a defense game. And it’s even better if they have paths as it allows you to think what tower you want it to be. The ranger for an example can be a damage dealer with a M60 on top path while the bottom path can be a crowd control for weaker zombies to not swarm you with cheap zombies that the stronger zombies can punch though. Even farm lets you choose if you want to get more income or have a tower which heals your health path every supply drop. Like come on, you can’t possibly just say it’s confusing

TDX needs some changes tbh but it can be a good game, if John didnt nerf every single strats, towers and maps to make the duration of the grind virtually longer, it'd be better. Also if BrazilAlt2 comments says "skill issue" he's officially a Dr. Xenon simp

OH THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was being driven insane by those "TDX is dying" videos. It was awful seeing people make videos so confidently about something that seemed extremely obvious to me.

I have played btd6 and they have ....... Exp so you have to use the tower a lot to get good upgrades 3 PATHS And Paragons Monkey knowledge And it's so simple.

Newly released Roblox games lose 30-40% of their players after a few weeks. Other games like Blackout lost like 60-80% of their players.

4:16 bro wasted his money😭😭😭😭😭😭

And to support NoL’s theory even more, the same exact thing happened to tds a few years ago. If u go back to summer 2022 u can see a video uploaded from elite about “tds dying” and it caused an entire trend of that to happen. Trends will happen of a game “dying” every single time it gets boring for people

All you need to know is its new so its still finding its audience. Its meant to be harder and more diverse compared to tds which makes u use the same towers over and over. Thats it.

Im pretty sure we all agree that some people would think that " OH OH NOOO THE GAME IS DYING" when they forgot there is school and not all of us are a bunch of no lifers as well as NOTOOFLEGACY speaking fax on how TDX is not dying

I understand why people think that tdx gonna die but when it updates it went to 12k then to like 4.5k players but who knows

TDX is still in beta, which is a reason i think some people think its dying because "iT doEsN'T haVe enoUgH ConTeNt"

Roblox td fans when they're told that endless grinding isn't good gameplay

I think mostly everyone is getting tired of the general tower defense games. TDS and TDX have a near similar player count at the time of typing this but both are gradually less than what they were before. I took a short break from TDX and only returned this week, maybe everyone else is too?

Ayy man in my video I concluded the low player count was just because of the lack of long term content in the game (like a battle pass) which is something that TDS provides that TDX doesn’t. I never really said it’s dead. Great vid btw, I’m subscribing because I can tell u put a bunch of effort into this vid

It would be funny as you slowly do more td content you deny more that you are doing more td content

Idk why, but I always love these rants.

I think that TDX isn’t dying, but I think that there’s one underlying criticism that I don’t really see people mentioning, which may be one of the largest reasons for people leaving the game, and that’s that TDX isn’t unique. The whole, “Only in TDX” thing was the main advertisement campaign for the game, and it personally hyped me up (and likely many others) to expect something revolutionary in the tower defense genre. Instead, we got an ordinary tower defense games with little quirks from other games meshed into it. In fact, I find that every “unique” thing about TDX (most of which are just from other TD games mind you), are some of the most minor changes they could’ve made. The two path upgrade system, which is likely the “biggest” of the changes, doesn’t exactly change much in how you play. For the most part, I don’t find myself asking “which path is better for the current situation?”, I find myself asking “which path gives me more DPS?”, which tends to be more important especially in the later game. Now yes, I am accusing TDX of being creatively lacking, but I don’t think it’s necessarily their fault. The tower defense genre is a very limited one, and there’s only so much you can change while it still being a tower defense game, and ensuring it won’t deter players due to it being too complicated. Unfortunately, I do think that, with how loyal of a fan base John has, he and his development team could’ve tried to take more risks, do something more innovative. For example, we have Aether Rush. The game allows you to move your towers, which completely changes how you approach the game. You could just defend the main base by crowding your units around it, but that leaves little room to let enemies by, leaves them vulnerable to stuns, and you won’t be able to collect the “loot drops” around the map, which can give you extra money that may be valuable to your survival. Or, you can break off some units from your “impenetrable” defense at the base to collect the loot drops, but risk weakening your defense. You can make your towers dodge the attacks of bosses, and even have them move with enemies to constantly damage them. There is no real “meta spots” or “meta strategies”, you form your best defense with your own skills and technique (atleast that have been created as far as I know, since the game is dead currently)l Placing units next to a set path is placing units next to a set path, there’s little room for creativity and there’s a reason we have so many “win game guaranteed” strategies in tower defense game. Overall, I think that TDX should try to be more different, they have yet to do anything unique in my opinion, and unless they try to do something different, it’s just going to be another tower defense game. TLDR for those of you who don’t want to read my rant: tdx ordinary, not very unique (everything it does has been done)

Like deepwoken a lot of people say that game is dead but it not

0:47 based

I think the same as you bro, i just can't understand why people saying its dead, IT'S LITERLLY A BETA RELEASE. TDS always had the sme ''issue'' of peaking 200k+ players in a big event and then dropping to

Though to me it is sad because if the lack of players, but with your other points about how people arguing about it being too complicated or whatever, that is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever heard and I totally agree with u

I have to be honest. Tdx is mid. I’m sorry, I love John but there’s been so many mistakes made like the promise of no gambling, promise of no gold skins, etc. and those have all been added. TDS is better, disappointment is what you’ll get, only in TDX.

it still has a consistent amount of players, not to mention the fact that the game still has so much content ahead of it. it's not dying

about the 2 upgrade path statement, btd 6 has 3 upgrade paths and it is harder to understand because of the t5 and paragons but nobody talks about that

My arguement to the "tdx is still in beta" is that it was in development for 2 years and had alot of funding

But can you answer this question. Why would i play this over any other td game?

i agree with you. roblox player always say "this game is dead" when they look at the player count. especially tds player say to tdx fan player

how is the 2 path upgrade system complicated?? its so simple, the only thing to question is which tower path is better

7:31 Project Moon mentionned, subscriber obtained.

To add on too the two path thing there baloons td6 it has 3 path system and I don't hear anyone complaining about it being complicated about it. but it dose have a menu to see all upgrades but still

Thats like saying bloxfruits is dead cuz is dosent have 2mil+ players when now when before it did when update 20 dropped. also if they think 2 tower path is complicated i hope they dont come across bloons tower defense 6

I have been grinding for weeks and can’t get enough of TDX..

i feel like the thing is their balancing team like you spent so much time to get something that isn't gonna make your games much easy. NOTE: THIS IS ONLY WHAT I THINK, THE GAME IS PRETTY GOOD BESIDES THE BALANCED

its still in beta, it hasnt _really_ hit the full potential also at 5:00 the platforms name is rolimons

fr like this game has been hyped for years obviously its gonna have so many people grind and play it when it comes out like are they dum

Project tower defense for revenaunt Krampus or windigo for the Christmas even also killed towers

6:29 I am 10 years old and it’s not even complicated. It’s pretty easy. I have no idea what that coming from like I guess when you first start, but when you do it over and over it’s pretty easy.

If ppl say 2 paths is complicated, they should look at btd6/btd battles 2

i agree that the game is in a state of growth just like every game in roblox

I can tell you exactly how they came to that conclusion........it gets people to watch lmao.

Tds has such an iron fist on the td gerne since why do you wanna play a game were you got nothing , if you have an game you got like a high level on

This statement especially applies for Bedwars, it too isn't dying.

I'm in denial that someone actually uttered the words the two path is complicated to me I'm going to stay in denial until I'm dead

7:11 I think that person is being a absolute troll

like "its to coplicated" brother its a td game its about strategy

facts

TDX has limited content and tbf it's not really fun after a couple of hours of playing the same thing. It's obviously going to lose players and then steady at a number that consists of mostly completionists and people just playing for fun.

tdx is awesome

Imagine this dude makes a Pilgrammed lore video

Eltie was talking about on his channel how it's not dying

i dont know if tdx is gonna beat tds cause tds has added pvp and does more reworks

Tds is boring i have litteraly neary falled asleep while playing it on FALLEN but in tdx i have 109 hours already and i havent thinked about sleeping once beacouse there is so much happening on the screen lol

It's fr dying cuz HOW DOES RANGER DEAFET A 40K HP BOSS IN EASY MODE

tdx immediately just lost all of its appeal when they added the gacha system(only in tdx)

people saying 2 paths in tdx is complecited *bloons td 6 has 3 paths*

And guess what Tdx is dead now and tds is doing better than ever with the hunt event

Stage 1 of grief: Denial

It’s because of people like elite just saying things with no actual research that are just not true

Roblox players see big numbers go down and the first thing they think is that the game is dead also that's the first time I've heard PM fans get called lobotmites.

Bro wasnt talking English, he was talking Facts Language

Roblox TD in general is dead. Objectively. Other than TDS, all of the new, actual tower defense games (i don't count toilet td) have died soon after release or their big surge in players. An example would be Tower Blitz, which did have other factors controlling its downfall such as 0ster handing it off to a worse dev team, but in general, tower defense in Roblox has been declining as of late.

Tdx actually had more players than tds when the new update came out

shoom defenders is just slorp

8:32 ???

nice your making a thorey on a game I spent half of my life on. but nice

This didn’t age well

rise up joe nutz nation

Tdx got hyped up and that why so many players played it but when john added gambling,hyped towers for robux, and santa event wnich is quite bad

People need to understand is that this game is still in beta but hey that might not be relevant in this video 😔

Love those arguments

I bet elite only made it to cater to 5 year old kids that younger than us

Mushroom Defenders? More Like Mushroom Shit

This video literally made just to teach TDS player how games work 😂😂😂

Bro so you understand why it’s dead it’s cause the grind is too long and slow unlike tds I’m not saying tds is better it’s worse but it’s so hard for new players to like it for example you got to play like 20 matches of easy just to get towers to beat intermediate 20 hole matches for like middle trooper or barracks it’s really grindy and this is coming from Someone who had rail and jug look at elites comments they mostly complain about that imagine starting off and having to play 20 matches of easy

60 towers planned is crazy ye its real john said it on dev stream

It is lmao

It is lol

TDX can’t die. John wont allow it

Ong 7-8k players is not “dead” 😭

TDX just requires more of a challenge and brain power then the skibidi toilet and TDS community can handle, they dont like the idea of another TD game being better then their game even tho its clear to see that the animations are better, the games graphics are better and john has implemented things that took TDS years to implement because of their neglection for the game. Rejoin feature you say? oh yeah only took about 2months for john to add that. some diehard TDS baby is going to comment "tdx meatrider" in the comments

BrazilAlt2 please don't skill issue me...

Elite is kinda overdramatic

Tdx is so golden diamond ultra sigma…. We have….. HEAVY MILITARY FOR THE GUN NERDS…. COOL TOWER KILLING MECHANIC THAT WAS NEVER INTRODUCED BEFORE(ahem ahem wtd and ctd) AND HOW CAN WE FORGET….. PHONK SIGMA MUSIC…..🔥🔥🗣 Dont you tee dee S fanboys get near our skibidi rizzler game….

people say tdx is dying because they hate that game and they think its bad

Awesome :)

well if you consider a game that gets to like 5k players on average and gets updates like weekly a dead game then ok

Bro i could solo the easiest tdx boss than solo the easiest tds boss

TDS will always be better though

Well I quit playing as it’s simply so grindy to get past the start and get the towers to actually grind fast

Bloons in question

👍
