Genuine question. Seemed to be super hyped and now I don’t hear much about it. Steam charts have 300k as highest player count but now it’s around 60-80k players.
Pretty much every single game has a massive drop off in concurrent players after the initial spike. That’s just how humans work, not everyone who tries something will like it.
Even if you like it, there’s a high chance you’re not playing it for more than a month.
No, it did not, and concurrent players is a very bad metric to use for something like this. They sold north of 3.5M copies. At $40 each, that’s about $100M. Even looking at concurrent players, right now, at 98k players, it’s the 14th most played game on Steam, so with the information you did use, as a paid game and not free to play, it would be hard to say that it flopped.
60-80k players for a paid game is a lot wtf?
Depends on who you ask. Square might have projected 15m sales on the first day, in which case it did.
What does Square have to do with a Bandai Namco published game developed by FromSoftware?
It’s a dumb hypothetical, because of a dumb question.
No?
80-60k players is still incredibly successful. I don’t think Nightreign was ever expected to see those kinds of numbers given the nature of the game.
