You are wrong people expected a lot more then that

More than what?  Its number 2 behind a game which is available on multiple platforms.  So the number one spot is made up of combined sales of Battlfield on the PS4 and Xbox One (PC perhaps, I'm not sure?)  That implies that the numbers are good seeing as it only accounts for 48 hours, whereas battlefield had the entire 7 days, on multiple platforms.

I'm sure a lot of people expected more then that.

As for me i think it's doing good

This is the part thats confusing me.  Expected more than what?  Its entered the charts at number 2 behind a game that is counting its sales across multiple platforms where as Bloodborne is a one platform game?  Am I missing something here?  Bloodborne could quite easily have sold nearly double what Battlefield has on the PS4 but would still be second on the charts because of whatever the Xbox One version sold.

you said it's doing better than a lot of people expected and i said people expected even better sales so i don't know what you didn't understand

Sorry, you must have confused me with someone else.  Can you point to where I said that Bloodborne was doing "better than a lot of people expected" please?

EDIT:

Actually, I've just seen what you are referring to be thats not how I meant it.  What I mean to say is that I don't think any reasonable person would of expected it to chart any higher than it did seeing as the only game to top it is a multi platform release.  

If certain people on this forum or otherwise have said they expect Blooborne to walk the charts and sell copious amounts of copies then I would say that they are in the minority.  So therefore I think what I said was right.  I think Bloodborne, charts position at least (cannot talk about numbers as no one knows yet) is doing as well as or better than the majority expected (at least in the UK, where its evident that the DS series isn't a great seller to begin with)

Bloodborne is not a multi million seller as described before, just as Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2 weren't. I dont think any DS title so far has exceeded 2 million on a given platform and if Bloodborne does manage to get to that milestone, I think it will only be just over it as opposed to "millions over it".  

But yeah, I can see where the confusion lies with what I said but I didn't mean it how it looked.
