Reading the article comments I’m starting to feel bad for some of the PS community folks, they believe BG3 is actually going to move consoles… they didn’t even buy FF16 according to SE yet they’ll buy a nicher franchise that I imagine 99% never played the first 2 … x to doubt. |
1) Honestly you are just proving my point that a part of the xbox community is really trying hard to make BG3/larian look bad.
When the news got announced the Xbox version was getting delayed because of issues with the S Larian got attacked by xbots in droves while the hate should be directed towards MS. In retrospect it is really sad when Larian literally released a game that is made for gamers and not for stockholders, possible the least buggy RPG in the last 10 years, no MTX, gives players the option to play it in singleplayer or MP. In an age of remasters releases that have less features than its original release, games that come with a ton of MTX or games releasing with so many issues or features missing, BG3 feels like a breath of fresh air with praise from basically every gamer community and hate from devs/Ceo's who want to make money and don't want that releasing feature complete games becomes the norm.
The last few weeks the goal post has shifted from 'Devs suck' ==> BG3 is just niche, but it is one of the biggest games on steam this year with sales approaching 5 million and potentially way more LTD, it has become the most preordered game so far on PS5;PSN and that's something with so many big hits on the way. if this is still niche then MS basically only released niche games this generation...(except for FH5 and maybe others?)
Expect the goalpost to change again a few times .... Not sure why you bring FFXVI in that post even if FFXVI was on Xbox same day it would have sold less on Xbox.., Based on all the data it is clear that Xbox has the lowers marketshare in games purchases especially with same day multiplatform releases and with MS really not trying to increase the installbase it is not going to change anytime soon. |
Ok. When it releases in 2yrs after the exclusivity period ends I’ll stop acting like Larian is a crappy little indie developer just for you boo :)
