    Idiots will pre-order anything. There were probably a lot of sales before the controversy even started.

    This might be a lot but keep in mind the INSANE budget for this game so despite this it's still nowhere near breaking even

    What other exclusives did they release this year? Saros?

    They also put out Ghost of Yotei and Marathon (yikes).

    Marvel Tokon too if you count console exclusives that are also on PC.

    Edit: Whoops, I forgot Ghost of Yotei was late last year. Unless you're counting fiscal year starting in October I guess.

    Marathon. The best game most people will never play.

    It really is very good.

    They're reworking it into something else now in an attempt to salvage it, but for me personally, unless that involves being able to host the server myself, I'm not giving it the time of day.

    I don’t know what Bungie was thinking putting all their effort into Marathon. People heard “extraction shooter PVP only” and checked the fuck out. Didnt help they delayed it and had the art theft debacle.

    That game was going to struggle no matter how good it was at launch. THEN they stopped work on Destiny 2 right as Marathon came out despite Bungie promising the two games would co-exist and just pissed everyone off.

    Masterclass in running a studio into the ground.

    Destiny was running the studio into the ground regardless of Marathon. Behind the scenes reporting says it had been a while since Destiny turned a profit, and by the time The Final Shape came out, the damage was already done. The reason they're not continuing with it is that it just burns through money.

    How did they think it would be any different? - when they remove the entire beginning of the game and expect people to just watch ~15 hours of archived gameplay on YouTube to understand what is going on - they were never going to gain new players, even as F2P.

    Just barely eking out heavy hitters like Marathon, Marvel Tokon or God of War Sons of Sparta I bet.

    buddy of mine bought this and I went over to his place to play it. It's boring. it holds your hand for everything and it's impossible to fail QTEs so there's just no point in doing them.

    Proof that gamers have no spine (once again. See also Switch 2 and PS5 sales) and that online discourse holds no prediction of real world value.

    The masses of non passionate gamers don't care the public perception or what the press has to say about a game. Especially so with popular franchises, see Pokemon, FIFA and Call of Duty as an example.

    One of the most common sources of alienation for me is seeing what other people, my alleged peers, spend their money on.

    Sometimes I wonder what would happen if everyone's spending habits became like mine. Lot of industries and practices would die.

    I can't imagine any reason to watch or play a game about american superheroes. Cringe asf.

    It's always funny to see people on lemmy calling for boycotts, saying how stupid companies are for not making products they want to buy and predicting how badly things will fail only for the masses to completely ignore all this and spend money on the same shit as always.

    So glad I canceled my pre-order for this. A three minute quick time event where you don’t have to do a damn thing?! No thanks.

    The level of comments here is no better than Reddit.
