Player base: rising or falling
failing then rose with sales and xpac
unknowable since no one besides ANET has access to data. If you are worried just starting the game that there are not enough players around you, don’t be. You down-level so the early zones can be more popular than mid and late, but you still see people in the least likely areas.
The server populations are tied to the accounts that are based on that server, not to the number of people playing. Since accounts rarely if ever are deleted, that means servers can only drop to low population by 2 ways. 1) the accounts transfer out to another server. 2) ANet increases the server cap. This makes servers that were full drop down to very high and servers that were high drop down to low without any change in the number of people playing.
ANet periodically increases the server caps to accommodate increased numbers of people buying accounts, which means the high population servers will say they are now low population.
By the way I just checked. None of the servers said low population. All are high to full.
ANet may give it to you.

Down-level?

Downscaled… I’m not going there with puns.
Been There, Done That & Will do it again…except maybe world completion.

top level 80 players (or any time you are a higher level than the zone you enter) when they go to a lower level have their max stats lowered to that level. Still 1 or 2 shot mobs in level 1 areas but you are not hugely overpowered so can help and get exp for helping other players as they level up.
I see players. Players everywhere.
Might be your time zone when you log in it could seem like less as that’s happened to me before logging in at different times of the day.
But in general; mega servers made maps A LOT more ‘filled’ with players.. Especially at world boss events.
