okay, let's try. just keep in mind that "being a realist" means "operate with facts, not opinions" now let's have a look on facts
Fostik wrote:this game is dying without wipe
that's not a fact. it is just how
you feel it. Since there's still a bunch of ppl in game and devs still publish regular updates, it's obviously not dying, but more like "becomes less suitable for your game style". Can't blame you for the will to change this, but still there's a possibility that HnH is just not for you, and maybe you should seek more sessional games instead of everlasting sandbox (what was stated by devs more than once (see the bottom line for more info))
Fostik wrote:Right now, there are less and less people online every month
well, that's a fact, but look, there's another one! the main people online LOSS is just after the wipe
so one may say "the more time passed after the wipe the fewer ppl quit playing. not saying that if your PC works for 20 mins after you turn it on and than requires reboot, you surely can reboot it every 20 mins, but it will be more productive to seek for the problem root (players loss) and eliminate that.

and that's just a hilarious fact brought here to scare little hermits with unstoppable doom. in the real world, the cost of HnH servers is somewhere near 100 euro/month and that's definitely won't ever be a reason to close the game if devs still want to keep it alive (even ten ppl with a bronze sub will cover servers cost), so please next time try to dig out some real reasons.

and here's another "I just want a new world I don't know why" or... maybe there's a reason somewhere further? let' search!

Many other changes, that is just useless for players with 1000'ish stats, but can be very interesting in new world, makes wipe meaningful right now.
oh look! a real reason! but wait.... fuck... nope, that's not a reason for a new world... that's a reason for a new character.
Really, do you know you can make a fresh start with new character and make all your dreams come true without waiting for a new world? there are many places in the current world that will simulate new world for you personally. so again, why do you want new world?
Summary: the HnH is still developing as a long-lasting survival game where players will, in time, be able to organize themselves into societies, from simple tribes and villages, progressing through republics, nation states and, ultimately, empires. This goal is just incompatible with sessional one-month servers some ppl want so much. And is you want to turn HnH into some battle-royale shit, please have balls to say it loud and don't hide behind false reasons such as server cost. Seriously, just try to be honest. Devs already makes it more and more focused on "one battle world", so you can be successful in your crusade.
