Forums - Sales Discussion - Resident Evil 7 global stats (sales discussion)

Sales are pretty low so far :/

Over 560K people are now part of the family and over 55K people played the game in PS VR

*stats updates every hour 

And yes i know those stats doesn't include people who played RE7 offline.

You know what?.....good! I'm not saying the game isn't good, but it could have easily been another brand game and not had the resident evil title.
Big corporations are so out of touch with gamers it's untrue...
Their logic

Make a fantastic game
Make an even better sequel
Make several more successful chapters
Change the style, lose older generation of fans and prey on the new for the "cool factor"
Make 2 poorer sequels to it
Change style again.... Look at abysmal sales and wonder what went wrong

Go back to the original style you f%*ckin@ idiots
You have a chance to do this with the remake of resident evil 2.......... But I guess you will mess that up too



How is that even possible? Almost half of that should be coming from the PS4 in Japan alone. The rest of the world + XBO sales + Steam would be only like 300k??

Wow, PC sales take up much less than I thought.

I would guess a lot of people are delaying buying the game until they can afford VR.

Does it take into account people who don't opt in to the service? At the beginning of the game it asks you to connect to the RE NET service.



Don't ruin the moment

I hope this game does really well. Capcom realized what was wrong with RE6 and they've done an excellent job with 7. I hope the market rewardes them or else it means fewer games like this.

Annecdotally, I blew past that "send us your play data!" thing super fast with a "no". Maybe others did as well. 



That's missing their mark by a long shot, but we all knew it wouldn't make 3 millions day one.

Not too bad sales. It's modest; they're probably not happy about them but maybe it will have legs.

Steamspy is super inaccurate especially in the first few days so I wouldn't put too much trust in those numbers.

A big amount of offline users has to be a major reason for this.
