It barely beat Days Gone, an underrated new IP that can't really compare to Marvel and Spider-Man popularity.
To be fair, Days Gone also ran great out the gate for us, at least for me it ran amazing, and it's options menu was something I wished MS had for some of their games (which they did catch up to).
This game coming out a year later and having issues when it shouldn't, but also asking for that price wasn't the best move.
Still wish we got a sequel to Days Gone though. One of my fave zombie games beside Dying Light.
seriously, is that a good number? is it worth it?
Helldivers is dominating by far by doing okish. The rest is catastrophic, sorry there are no other words to discribe it. And yet not even sales are disclosed. But when we subtract "players" they will be even lower...
Its amazing that here on vgchartz you get minus for telling the truth! Can anyone tell me whats so positive about 77k GOT players when the game sold over 10 million on PS4 alone? Dare to explain?
