At this point of the game even if player population is low now, the game feels good, just not as competitive as before due to the factions and villages and usual competitive players got bored of it as always do waiting for a wipe to get some new "adrenaline" feeling when a new world comes and new big features are added. Thats a good way to play of course, but i think if worlds were way more durable this competitive players of course would quit when bored, but there are many people like those 90-150 actual players who would continue to play it because... lets be honest... actual factions and big villages of the game favour the raiding and random killing, wich of course is another way to play, but i think that decreased that other kind of population of the game who plays when factions are off.
This all leads me to think in one part wipe now would be wrong if devs are not prepared yet for a major update, but also leads me to think when they do not wipe, some publicity of the game at this point would attract more ppl like those 90-150 for at least try the game without the black hand of the factions stabbing their heads when trying to play.
And then of course wipe.
