How big will The Conduit have to open to NOT have cries of "it's a bomb!"?

It'll depend on what the buzz is online after launch. If enough of the right people cry bomb, it's a bomb. It's a new IP, but it has a lot of hype. I would say it has to sell at least 100+k first week. I'm not hearing any stories on groundbreaking presale orders, so this may be a bad sign.
