@UltimateOtaku91 well that’s why I said they should be clear about what metric and how they came up with it. 3 times the sales pace regardless of attach rate mental gymnastics is not bad either way.

This is actually a bs verdict. Or at the very least, make it clear if you’re saying it seems it’s not doing great FOR A PS5 GAME. Your claim of it moving slower than Returnal also does not add up, at least when it comes to estimates. Returnal was estimated to have sold 75k-100k first week lol. If you take the official 3-month sales milestones of Returnal and compare with this, Saros is selling at 3 times the pace. Lol

@LikelySatan delete stuff mf lmao

@Jackthelad93 like I’m genuinely so confused lmao. Like I get that the game was preordered obviously but that’s not really where the bulk of sales from unless I’m totally wrong

Mf it released the last day of the month of April lmao what are we doing here?😭

@Ambassador_Kong funny you reference Ted Lasso which is largely a progressive show that might probably be argued to be doing the same thing you’re saying today’s media does. Lol

It’s the fact they just silently did it without an announcement that’s bad honestly

@IOI you say that as if this galaxy movie is good. As a long time Mario fan I am not mad I went to see it but I am mad at how they handled it. Such a waste of brain cells trying to salvage what was shown on the big screen. Unfortunately critics are right, but since it’s a kids movie and Mario all of a sudden the “kids movies don’t have to be dumb” talking point has somehow faded away lol. It’s just not a good movie

@danzoEX oh so you mean appealing to “what gamers want” didn’t work for them? Damn lol. It obviously lasted longer than certain other live service games like that one that starts with a C but color me surprised since this game was always mentioned as an example of “appealing to the main audience”😂. At least something like stellar blade actually seemed to still care about the game itself

@Frmknst it’s not simply about AI usage. That’s an obtuse way of just generalizing things. This AI art stuff is ***** ugly and out of place. That’s enough to be against

@Kelrics90 you’re both some funny individuals. Him for bringing up that topic where it genuinely is not being discussed, and you for somehow misinterpreting what he said lmao. Since when does somebody using the words “woke ideology” agree with said ideology? Read what he said again, slowly lmao

@rjejr I was inclined to agree with all of yall making this observation but first party games are different from third-party games. Also, in this case PS players actually generally like these games, while the loud online PC master race have a history of trashing the PS exclusives anyway, so they’re not exactly the same situation imo

I’ll forever stand on this opinion that the recent war on exclusivity is stupid. Bro, you must not play EVERY game. If I make a system I have a right to develop good software specifically for it to strengthen its appeal. I understand that capitalism has its issues but we need competition like that. If you are not blessed enough to be able to buy all systems and you stick with buying one you’re comfortable with, then play the damn game on your friend’s system that it’s exclusive to if you want to play it that damn bad (yet hate the company developing it in many cases lmao). You must not have everything and if you must play everything there are more ways than expecting zero exclusivity. Idc

@PuppetMaster it’s a different game from palworld and a different developer but you’re right in that they’re in over their heads copying a Pokémon “rip-off” in itself lol

While I understand the overall point or sentiment here, your point about Concord does not really contribute anything and in fact looks like an oddly placed part whining about how embarrassing the numbers for the game were. I don’t understand what purpose you had in talking about that I guess is what I’m saying

@graymamba lmao fr but to be fair it is not necessarily the same people that make that statement that were hoping for a rerun to exclusivity

@LogicStrikesAgain the long paragraph armchair analyst and speculator comments here get me every time lmao.

@Boxmonkey this whole comment section is ***** on Sony as with every other post about this, so what are you even talking about?

I’m not one to hate on this game but this article feels almost shameless Sammy lmao. Coulda just posed this as an opinion piece rather than trying to stick it to “the haters.” Comments over on the Facebook calling this a shill post aren’t without reason

@Fluberuper exactly lol. That’s why it’s always ridiculous when copying claims are made about stuff that were revealed not long one after the other. Ghost of Yotei and AC Shadows is a good example of this, and Sucker Punch were no strangers to coincidences like that given the story of Infamous vs Prototype. Add this type of thing to the fact that E33 took inspiration for these very things from previous games, it gets annoying when the uninformed that are just elated with the hype around the game chime in and clearly show they are uninfromed. Even as someone that was not aware, I was certain before reading the article that this is surely not “copying E33” and very likely taking inspo from the same places E33 did. Though you can argue they likely decided to go with the style since E33 was as big as it was

I was surprised reading this say it took 8 months for DS1 to go to PC considering it came out in 2019, but then I also remembered horizon zero dawn went to pc around the same time. It’s funny but I think people don’t even remember that Sony started doing pc ports years before this ps5 gen fr

@DennisReynolds early sales reports haven’t been great

@Northern_munkey please note you are mixing things up. Insomniac is not the studio making intergalactic, that is naughty dog

You don’t have to use the pandemic situation to explain anything really lmao. Ghost of Tsushima seems to have had a spike in sales in those 3 days but slowed down quite a bit. Yotei’s 3.2 million in 1 month is better than Tsushima’s 5 million in 4 months statistically , by quite a bit literally almost 3X the rate lol. But I guess it remains to be seen how Yotei compares once it hits the 4 month mark, but at that point the pocket watching is insanely desperate from whichever side of this debate

Edit: also, report your numbers correctly. You linked the source but couldn’t quote the figure right. It’s 3.3 million

@Jacko11 exactly man lol. I don’t know the extent to which Microsoft is taking that angle of business seriously, but the statement they made regarding this just comes off a bit pretentious just to sideline themselves from the discussions regarding the big 3

@ButterySmooth30FPS they used AI to share that slop don’t pay it any attention lol

@naruball quite frankly you have a point. While there are still reasons to question these companies, the constant appearance of continuous persecution of gamers online is rather exhausting to see everyday on here, especially as someone who has a life and gaming isn’t all that pertains to it

@OldGamer999 here’s the thing, you don’t have to play everything. Or better yet, if you really want to play something but don’t want to buy another system for, play it at a friend’s or borrow their system and game

@Blaze215 there’s already a bundle

@PuppetMaster I agree the game is doing well, but idk if mentioning the $10 price difference holds up considering that’s just a standard price adjustment with the new gen that people have gotten used to for the most part

@Northern_munkey the 40% was purely talking physical sales

@AverageGamer the point of discussion around helldivers 2 is regarding the Xbox chart specifically

@DennisReynolds hmm I bought the game and am excited to play it despite all the dumb controversy, but the open world thing honestly sounds like a bit of a scam and deceitful marketing

@Lowdefal lemme guess, he mentioned the Charlie Kirk situation or something?

@nomither6 black ops 3 is definitely a good game. I got the themed ps4 bundle with the game

@ShadowRJ it’s not meant to be some competitive chart it’s literally just telling the numbers how they are, IN CELEBRATION

“large, central button” you mean the touchpad?😂

Idc you have to be quite a go(o)ner to be noticing ***** like that lol.

@Juanalf unless they expanded the story and missions, I actually heard the campaign is like 2 hours lmao

@Ainu20 exactly what I said lmao

This ***** reads like a word salad man this translation BLOWS💀

@Bingoboyop tbf I get what they mean but it’s still corny. Just the overly done dark gritty aesthetic with stuff like gears, early halo, etc. and continuing it with the Bethesda purchase and all

@mrbone price raise was actually $60 to $80💀, as only tears of the kingdom was ever $70 (first party) on switch 1

@DennisReynolds not arguing, but if you read the whole thing, they clarified that you don’t tackle the Yotei Six in whatever order you want

@BAMozzy you’re not playing off the disc but it is right there on the disc to download with no connection whenever. It is very much more preserved than downloading from the internet lol tf

“Takashi” Iizuka, not Takahashi lmao
