I kinda agree with your analysis but it's stuff like in your analysis that lead me to my prediction of very average sales. If 200k does happen, that would be insane, a bigger flop than Evolve. The biggest flop in a while. |
Why is it improbable to be a bigger flop than Evolve? Evolve released with no competition at all, it was actually the very first game released in EU in 2015, second in the US (Dying Light). It then had very little exclusive competition from The Order the following week. It also released on a system with a bigger install base.
TR has nothing like that in its favor: fierce competition, a very strong exclusive brand sharing the platform (Halo), two of the most recognizable brands worldwide releasing around it (CoD, Star Wars), smaller install base (no revenue from a ~30 million install base).
Evolve even had a significantly larger marketing push.
Maybe TR will actually manage to sell well, but it is far from being a sure thing that it will launch better than Evolve.
