How does this compare to the first Dishonored in the same time frame?
Lol. I watched Bethesda's E3 event but I didn't knew the release date.
It's at 340k on SteamSpy right now, so it may be pushing some solid digital sales. I'll also be curious to see what these numbers are like after Christmas; those final weeks of Christmas often see huge spikes for games released close to Christmas and start off slow sales wise.
Yea they released at a very busy time. Hell I loved the first one and I still haven't got this game yet. After I beat Dying light it'll probably be the next game I get but there is just so much i need to get to right now.
Steam Spy counts the number of users that had the game.Steam has a two hour refund policy so the actual sales are a lot lower.
