Too many people try to allocate sales soley to quality or some shit like that.

 

This bugs me too.

 

Yes it's a very "bugging" comment but it's the truth.  Quality hardly has anything to do with sales.  Although it can help sales, especially if its legs of a game targeted at core gamers who read reviews, but other than that it's hype, brand, and marketing that are the bulk of sales.  I mean I'd love to think quality was the driving force of sales too, but unfortunately it isn't.  I'm just stating the cold hard truth.  And people need to understand this if they are going to discuss sales, that we need to understand what the driving force is as well.
