you are right op. i have returned to bring back bl to its prime. i think we should gather as a group to discuss how to revive the Beast's Lair.

I think it's less that it killed it, and more that the hype is currently over. And niche as BL may be, it was the hype stemming from a 13 year old project long thought to be dead.
Call me 想φαγω.
Spoiler:
I think it's just coincidence.
A generation of otaku grew up with Type Moon's original works. Tsukihime and Fate have shifted the landscape of visual novels, and catapulted Type Moon into mainstream.
But that was 20 years ago, and most of that generation has moved on.
Mahoyo and Fate derivatives are not enough to carry the tent pole of Type Moon, therefore it's faded a bit.
Tsukihime didn't kill BL, the problem is that it didn't do enough.
It would also help if they actually released it in English. The fact that the only three TM games with an English release are Melty Blood, Extra and Grand Order (on a two year delay) is pretty ridiculous.

Started Legend of the Galactic Heroes (14/07/23), pray for me.
You forgot Extella and Link. Well that and didn't Melty have at least 2 English games? Although personally I'm not as fond of the Extra setting myself so some other games set outside of the Moon Cell would be neat to have. I just prefer the secret war on the streets to Extra I think, but maybe it's because I didn't get as invested in Nero and Tamamo like the Protagonists of Fate/Stay Night.

If you're talking about the site overall, it was actually more active in early '21, more than now even. It was least active during the summer of 2021, if we're counting from 2021 to now.
I've kind of wanted to collate all the statistics and make a giant chart out of it at some point.
He never sleeps. He never dies.
Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.
We need a BL branding initiative.
I need to hear about BL when I hear Raid Shadow Legends and Nord VPN.
Unfortunately we have a powerful lack of wealthy furries to bankroll the revitalisation of the BL posting economy.
