Veknoid_Outcast said: In terms of sales debates, you're absolutely right. But, to be perfectly honest, the sales debates were never especially interesting to me. I rarely saw deep, insightful analyses of sales trends, market shifts, and pre-order patterns. Much more frequently I saw "game X is winning, lol" or "system Y is doomed, lmao." Sales figures on VGChartz are more often used as artillery in a never-ending console war, rather than an entree to a meaningful discussion about the video game market. So, while I know some members here miss them desperately, I don't mind their absence. It's the community here that brings me back, not the numbers. |
Yeah but sales were an incentive to come to the site, at least a few time a week to check... and read a few posts, and that what make a community. But in the current state of competition (clear positions), even updated it would not be that great, and that's perhaps the very reason why they put less and less effort on the site update.
