I expect Saros to not sell very well, it should have released at a lower price and bullet hell games simply don't have mass appeal.

That being said, its AA estimations, which are quite often not good data, so I wouldn't give it much weight, even if, as I said, I expect the game to not sell very well.

Price is high.  This article, fair the data is questionable, but resonated because of studio shut down.

Returnal was one of the cheapest PS5 games I ever got, it was clearly not selling as expected and it went in very deep discounts going on after 1 year, so my personal experience is that other people would give it a try like I did if the price was better, which I expect to happen to Saros too.

When I played Returnal I actually found it to be a steal based on what I paid ($20), the game is really good, but even so, it needs to have a lower entry price for more people to even give it a chance.

I was planning to get Saros when it was cheaper, but I also did know this time around it was worth more than what I paid for Returnal. Gladly I was able to get it for 42% off during preorders because of stacking Amazon offers and coupouns.

I think at the $40 I paid it becomes quite an attractive game, and $50 as a release would be taken considerably well. It releasing at $70 is a really hard sell for vast majority of people.
