Im book marking this. Gonna be entertaining to see the narative flip if this doesn't even make it to 1.5m unit sold in first month.

Remember people dogpiled on Marathon for selling 1.2m copies with a budget of 200m-250m base on rumours, lets see what will be the excuse for a 400m dollar game selling the same or less. Even if a miracle happens and it sells 5m copies its sill losing money.

This feels like you're already putting on your console warrior hat before the thread's even started.

What makes you think people will make excuses for Gears if it doesn't sell gangbusters?

You think there's no bias and changing narratives ever happened here before?

TBH you are most likely right, there won't be any excuses made for it.

The most likely thing that will happen is there won't be much dogpiling and discussion about it, and it will just be swept under the rug in no time.
