I wouldn't say it's dead/dying, just activity is somewhat down and some projects are struggling to keep developing since they depended on the price of hive. I know our project Hive account@holozing for instance has been hit quite hard due to that and is quite in debt atm.

Hive's gone through these eras before many times, the strong dapps will survive while some just go into hibernation til greener times. Hive itself is more than fine imo and a lot is being worked on behind the scenes for the chain, there's a hardfork upgrade set for november for instance.

What games did u use to play that are gone now?
