Summary

Hello, for about two weeks now, I’ve been observing a significant downfall in playing Prop Hunt games. Since 2019, I’ve been building Prop Hunts and have always had consistent gameplay, so it’s now clear to me that something must have changed in the discovery. Since I’ve dedicated myself to this and tried to figure out what it could be, I’ve come to one thing. If a player plays Prop Hunt, other Prop Hunt maps aren’t shown in the “Recommendations based on your play history,” but rather general party games and minigames. I don’t think it’s normal for, say, the 5th most played Prop Hunt map to have only 40 people. There must be something seriously wrong here.

Steps to Reproduce

Play Prop Hunt and check out the recommended maps.

Expected Result

Restore its place in the Prop Hunt genre; people crafting Prop Hunt maps constantly strive to build the most creative environments with new mechanics.

Observed Result

I think if you look at the current state of Prop Hunt maps, you’ll realize that something’s wrong. There used to be several maps that were popular, but now there are barely 2-3 maps being played. I believe people still enjoy Prop Hunt, but no one wants to play on a map alone or in a half-empty lobby. Prop Hunt isn’t getting enough attention or space.
