The silent majority loved Veilguard.
>>695188956This game is such a non-entity that even bait threads can't get replies
>>695188956Botted stars don't pay the bills.
>>695188956The game appeals to the people it was designed for, which means women and trannies.Nobody else likes it.
>>695189119But i have seen even women and trannies shitting on it
>>695188956CoolStill not buying
>>695188956>4.17>8k ratings
wtf Astro Bot has 4x as many ratings
>>695189119I'm not convinced real women like this either desu. women care more about story than gameplay in these types of games and even redditors complain that the story sucks ass. Also is there even an attractive male romance companion?
>>695188956The majority didn't play the game, you tard.
>>695188956I watch PS ratings pretty closely because i think they’re lowkey pretty accurate. 4.17 is low as shit.
>>695191581post some comparisons then anon. what are other games getting there?
>>695188956Soooo...I'm non binary
>>695188956>8k ratingswow it's fucking nothingall this shows is that everyone with sense knew it was bad and didn't give them money for it lol
>>6951916838000 ratings on a weird niche rating platform like the Playstation Store is a ridiculously high amount. all this shows is that the rating is a total lie, as 8000 people would not go and rate a product like that.
>>695189119>The game appeals to the people it was designed for, which means womenAmusingly enough, no. They gutted the romance content to be "not too steamy" for trannies, so they even lost the woman audience. It's only made for trannies.
>>695191665RDR2 4.73Black Myth Wukong 4.47Astro Bot 4.89BG3 4.81Metaphor 4.76ER 4.71 CP2077 4.42AssCreed Valhalla 4.12Star Wars Outlaws 3.79GTA Remaster Trilogy 3.82
>>695192360>>695191581was gonna post this, but then realized the number of ratings for a game that came out not-too long ago were fishy as hell. 8000 ratings for a game under a month old on a rating metric that barely anyone knows exists seems sketchy, no?
>>695192360huh so is astro bot actually, unironically, really good?i'd never even heard of it before this gamer awards thing
>>695193209Yes, it's Bing Bing Wahoo but better
>>695193209it's apparently one of the greatest advertisements of all time. i refuse to engage with ads so i'll never play it, but yeah it's supposedly really good
>>695193276the game is an advertisement...?>>695193253huh neat
>Yalls
>>695192360>only 0.38 points more than outlaws
>>695193375>he doesn't know about the famous right wing youtuber yalls
>>695193357yeah. it's one giant advertisement for sony IPs and hardware. I think that makes it look totally soulless and terrible, but the actual "game" part of it is reportedly amazing. like I said, didn't play it
>>695188956>the people who didn't buy the game didn't leave a review>OWNED HAHAHAHAfaggot
4chan is an echo chamber that thinks it’s in the majority but after certain recent real life events it’s hard to believe that the sentiment on 4chan is the reality in real life.Every person I talk to about this game in real life loves it. It seems to be social media mouthpieces that don’t like it.
>>695193458wouldn't that mean that mario and zelda are ads for nintendo
>still posting veilguard numbers>still hasn't played the gameThe power of the modern audience...
>>695193540gain. media. literacy.
>>695193496no because mario isn't saying HOLY SHIT REMEMBER EARTHBOUND ON THE SNES and REMEMBER THIS FROM THE NINTENDO (TM) 64!?!?!?!? same for zelda, they are both contained experiences that exist in their world and not constantly advertising things that are not the product (unless you buy amiibos for crossover items)
>>695189119The women absolutely hate what they did to their Inquisition husbands
>>695193496no. that's an extremely stupid thing to say.
>>695188956I always wondered, do playstation reviews count every region or they're separated by every country like on xbox?
>>695193458imagine they'd made an entire level for Concord? holy shit, I wish they had
if the hate train didnt work why isn't it selling?
>>695193482>reddit spacing hi
>>695188956>8k is now a majority of peopletrans math
>>695188956>only 8k number of rates
>>695188956survivorshit bias.real humans skipped the game.
>>695193482I'm sure your wife's boyfriend loves it.
>8K>meanwhile the Horizon 1 remake which released like 5 days later has almost 200k ratingslmao
>>695193482
>>695193586so then what does it do?do you need to buy sony funko pops to unlock outfits, does your character level up if your friends also buy playstations? as you say, it's not by virtue of being an exclusive alone>>695193709might be the majority of people who bought their game on playstationi ran the numbers on it using boxleiter a few days ago when someone asked, the game made about 65 million across all platforms
Can't wait for Sony to waste a PS+ month to this in a few months.
here are xbox reviews. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/dragon-age-the-veilguard/bsdx4fnnc0dk check them out and you would notice that all of them are 1-2 stars, where are all those 5 coming from?
I would love to see the statistics of what percentage of game owners actually use that rating function on the sony storebecause even if its only like 5% that means only 160k people bought the game on playstation
>>695193841Why the fuck does Horizon 1 have a remake?
>>695194067people liked it
>>695194067no ideaim not condoning the remake but it was a good comparison because it released near it
>>695193841>it's realsnoys are insane
>>695188956Does gold stickers from reviewers translate to sales? For perspective, Dragons Dogma 2 has close to 4 million sales now, even if people didnt like that game and it reviewed average, it sold well. Can DAV say the same with how many people actually played it?It could be the best game ever made, people dont want to touch it because its about sending a message. If your game contains blatant and overt woke shit it is going to affect sales, and it turns out the people advocating for this shit dont really exist, or at least they never seem to show up and support whatever manages to be trying to cater to them.
>>695194067Sony trying to make an excuse for every PS4 1st-party game worth a damn getting a "PS5" version, even if it's just an "All settings to high" re-release.
>>695188956No wonder they always blow a lit if you compare Veilguard with BG3.
>>695188956>silent majority>9k votes ... You sure showed them xis
>>695193482You're surrounded by retards, you included. There I cracked the case you mouth drooling mongoloid
>>695193482>Every person I talk to about this game in real life loves itWhat do they like about it? Surely they must have passionate, detailed praise you can share with us.
>>695188956In seven years of Ps4 I have only given a rating twice, most of the time I don't even remember that there is this function
>>695188956>>695194025you can't review games unless you own them digitally (both on xbox and ps)90% of playstation sales are done through disks going by insomniac leaksNo physical is not yet dead on xboxHope that helps
>>695195293oh and xbox separates every review by countries, so the actual review count is way higher
>>695188956lmao imagine, besides spending $200+ million on your shitty DEI slop game that needs at least 5-6x more sales then it currently has, also spending money on:>fake store reviews >fake media reviews>(including disneyland trips)>youtube positivity bots>forum positivity bots>complete damage controlHow about just make a good fucking game instead?
>>695188956>8k ratingsThe game flopped
>>695195293so 80k sales on playstationglobally
>>695188956Sure has been a lot of cope from the left this year, and I'm loving every minute of it.
>>695188956It seems to have sold even less than Star Wars Outlaws.
>>695188956>sample size is 8000 out of 1 millionLOLLMAO, EVEN
>>695193868it constantly throws memberberries of other franchises to the point it can't be its own thing and lacks its own identity beyond "OMG OLD PLAYSTATION THING TURNED INTO HECKIN AWESEOME FUNKO POP WOOHOO" like if Astro bot gets a PC port its gonna make way less sense but u can play Mario and Zelda on emulators and not feel like you're constantly being pressured to buy a switch (unless you're a moralfag for corporations)
>>695193458It's not an advertisement, dipshit. It's a love letter to their franchises. I bet you think the Mario easter egg in a Link to the Past is an advertisement.
>>695194294This is combined with the ratings for the PS4 version, plus we all know Hermen inflates all Horizon numbers
>>695189119even women like BG3 more than Veilguard mostly because the former actually gave them what they want: a sexy vampire
>>695188956>Yalls
>>695195441retard, only 1% of users leave reviews
Ok OP
>>695196591>source: my troonwound
>>695196591even if that were true, and its not, that would still mean that they didn't even reach 1 million sales on playstation globally even if you give it 800k for EACH platform you're still left UNDER 150 million profit not even including fees and 150 is the lowest estimate always given so even in the most crackhead troon headcanon overestimates it would STILL be millions of dollars away from breaking even.
>>695189119I have a few trans friends and not even they want to play the game because of how butt ugly the characters are and all the pandering shit in the writing.
>>695188956you can only vote if you buy the gameso all those people are trannies sucking each other dicks
>>695196383>It's a love letter to their franchises.more like an obituary
>>695188956>people with shitty taste enjoyed a shitty gameyou don't say
>>695191581ME Andromeda has like a 4.2 on PSN.
>>695196591It's more like 15%And activists would be more inclined to review bomb Veilguard, so the real number should be closer to 25% for this particular gameSo 4x8=32 to get the number of digital salesSo if digital sales are 10%, then physical should be ~290k. PS sales usually account for something like 60% of total sales. Let's say that for this game, Dragon Age has a very strong PC base, and it's actually 60% on PC. That would put total sales at around 800k.It all seems to point that Veilguard is around that 800k mark, when you take into account that EU sales performance we got yesterday, and how it trailed Dragon's Dogma 2's launch by more than 18%.It's been just twenty days and it can still sell, but it's probably in the tens of thousands now, worldwide, and likely in the low tens. Anon that guessed 500k sales wasn't that far off. I don't think any Bioware game has flopped this much, ever.
>>695189075Not even the target audience likes Taash.
>>695199715Didn't the whistleblower Bioware is hunting down way that it was 500k for the first week and it eventually stopped at a million?>tfw Inquisition, which was cheaper to make than Veilguard, needed 3 million sales to break even
>>695198796>>695199149>>695199715literally every single bit of info from devs and publishers say the same thinghttps://steam-revenue-calculator.com/this calculator has +-20% accuracy
>695188956>YallsWho is that? Why is low IQ talk a popular thing now?
>>695199928>Taash is in the worst possible position for every category except one.
>>695200000retard
>>695200035You know why
>>695200121And if the Lucanis romance was good, Taash would be at the top of that too. For some reason they REALLY wanted to push Lucanis/Neve as a thing, and made both the Lucanis and Neve romances with the player super barebones.
>>695188956>8k ratingslmaoooooo
>>695199959>it eventually stopped at a million?That was an internal memo. Now, the way it was reported it seems like it was done to soothe internal worries, and not an official report, which can't actually be taken into account. Companies will literally lie to their employees all the time, and then the company closes, everybody is shitcanned, and the money is all gone. Typically, this isn't something you announce in an internal memo, and it isn't something the employees need to be worried about. The kind of memo that you would internally announce is that due to the success of the game, you're getting a bonus, not the nobody panic kind of memo. It means that you are indeed panicking, you are aware of the situation, and it means there is need to worry about something.
>>695193623Lol no it's a very accurate thing to say, Zelda and Mario are soulless trash that exist to make jewtendo money when the annual rehash of the same 2 games comes out every year, sorry switch sóyboy fag
>>695200257>don't worry, employees, it "probably" reached a millionHoly shit
>>695199928Is the average companion rating at out of 5 or out of 10? Because none of this are a 4.6 out of 5. The Planescape Torment cast, which has some of the best characters in gaming doesn't have a 4.6 out of 5 character.
>>695191843>8000 ratings on a weird niche rating platform like the Playstation Store is a ridiculously high amount. all this shows is that the rating is a total lie, as 8000 people would not go and rate a product like that.Sony actively pushes people to rate games.Calling playstation store, the first thing 200 million users see when they turn on their device a "niche rating platform" is kind of weird. It's not niche, you just don't care about it. 8k ratings is not that much.
>>695189119>>695191861Unironically this. Some normalfag woman reviewed the game in my local newspaper and the only thing she talked about was how mad she was that she couldn't fuck the assassin dude. Not a word about the story or gameplay but fucking paragraphs about her "beatuiful" elven character getting rejected.
>>695188956meanwhile this was considered a flop by the sisters
>>695193567I'm not sure how I can gain a meaningless buzzword that retards use to inflate their fragile egos but ok
>>695188956>even resetera is now admitting that veilguard is underperformingxisters...
>>695188956Imagine being completely obliterated in your own threadKWAB
>>695200483Even funnier, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO FUCK THE ASSASSIN DUDE MULTIPLE TIMES, AT LEAST TWO SCENESBioware literally saw millions of potential horny femcel and normalfag female sales, and decided "no, it has to be safe and clean for my trans xisters"
>>695200484Which is really funny because it turned a profit on day 1 sales. Veilguard may never actually make a dollar of net revenue.
>>695200156nice price retard
>>695199149>profitnot likely
>>695199149Yeah, we know that Inquisition was>4 years development>$150 millionMeanwhile Veilguard is>2 years of cancelled first game (Tevinter spy game)>4 years of cancelled second game (Anthem co-op)>4 years of Dreadwolf rebooted to Veilguard
>>695191843Do you see, gentlemen? This is actually a proper example of cope.
>>695188956>You all's weird hate train didn't work hahaThat sentence doesn't make sense
someone please explain to an actual southerner how y'all became a regular thing with these left weirdos
>>695188956The silent majority of....8k people?
>>695196546Because BG3 is designed for the same audience and it's a much better game.
The real comedy is that Bioware is hoping to pull this off with Mass Effect 5.Veilguard was riding off the goodwill of casual players that enjoyed Inquisition.ANDROMEDA HAS NO SUCH GOODWILL
>>695188956I pirated it, saw they allowed tranny shit in character creation, and deleted it without playing it. Go fuck yourself troon.
>>695201827It's really funny, people are hungry for more fantasy RPGs with fantasy politics and fantasy worldbuilding (with fantasy racism) and hot romanceable girls and guys. Inquisition sold 12 million and Baldur's Gate 3 15 million. Ideally, a proper Dragon Age 4 should have sold 3-5 million on launch.
I finished the game. Wasnt THAT bad, but the sheer number of missed opportunities was criminal. I´d give it a 6,5
>>695188956Impressive, very nice.Let's see the profit margins.
>>695200410It's not even that. In the memo, it allegedly says that they sold "over a million". How much over a million? Over a million. Is that a million and 1 copies? 1.2 million copies? Is it close to 2 million copies? And it comes off as just trying to debunk the outlets that estimate its sales at less than a million copies, without actually answering. And does that mean sold in or sold through? Because one means shipped, and the other means putting it in the hands of actual customers. This is just misleading at best, and intentionally, malevolently dishonest at worst.
>>695188956>Yall Why do gay Americans do this?
>>695202185It's some weird way of talking they all do to let each other know they're on the same sideThere's a term for it... I think it's shibboleth but I'm not sure
>>695193482Yeah, well, I'm still not buying it. :)
>>695193482>4chan is an echo chamberyou are not banned from speaking here for being a whiny retarded bitch, let alone for disagreeing with consensus like everywhere else. the closest thing to echo chambers on 4chan are generals. if you are to suggest 4chan specifically is an echo chamber you are required to believe every other way to discuss things online, and perhaps in person is even greater of an echo chamber by your metric
>>695189119Check /lgbt/'s reaction to the game. The trannies dont' like it. As far as I can tell, the core audience for this are hyper leftists and some enbies.
>>695196383>Love letter to their franchises>Most aren't own or exclusive to SonyClassic Sony
>>695188956HospitalLegal, seems like a genuine person yes
>>695202635>hyper leftists and some enbiesThat's accurate to the game too.Anti-sexual, and boring "everyone gets along and has the same fantasy political stance" world. This is a game where (ex)slave owners and slave liberators have the exact same political stance.
Engoodening the factions is funny because in TORtanic, there's 2x as many Empire players than Republic players.
>>695194948Big if true
>>695200000According to this, the lower bound of what The Veilguard made in net revenue was $16,122,847.85. And the upper bound is $24,184,271.77.Even if you double them to account for sales on other platforms and add 10%, the lower bound is $35,470,265.27, and the upper bound is $43,531,689.19.So in the best case scenario, Dragon Age: The Veilguard made EA between $35 Million and $45 Million. Out of a budget of at least $200 Million.
>>695200000What a waste of quints
>>695199928>playerbase is over 60% straight female, even higher when accounting for lesbos>disappointment in the universally hated character is overshadowed twofold by disappointment in the most-sexed character (Italian bad boy)'s romanceI knew Bioware was big with terminally online cat ladies but it is surprising to see they outnumber male players 2:1.
>>695189119So 90% of anglo saxons then
>>695207412Inquisition brought a ton of female players in.
when I'm president, posting "y'all" on the internet without being black or southern will be a life sentence in federal prison.
>>695207842More like drove a ton of male players out.
>>695207985also, it will be a double life sentence if it's "y'all've" or "y'all's
>>695193209It's a 7/10 platformer that the movie audience who has never played a videogame in their lives will swear is the second coming of christIt has a bunch of one-and-done neat ideas but the core movement is really basic, making it just Super Mario Galaxy again
>>695207985Make sure you also include "yinz" without being from Pittsburgh. They're stealing that now too.
>>695193482As if you're banned for going against the grain here
>>695193482>4chan is an echo chamberfalseit's only an echo chamber if the mods ban you for unpopular opinions like on reddit or resetera
>>695199928Is that from Reddit? Polling data from there tends to be biased and inaccurate.
>>695208410wasn't aware, but that's definitely includedif they ever start doing the Lancaster county "youse guys" then it will be 3 life sentences.
>>695196383>love letter>here is your designated funko pop that plays nothing like the characters they're in!
>>695199928I don't understand how Emmrich is the favorite companion quest, you just run around a graveyard picking flowers while he spouts exposition, then you do it again, then I dropped the game
>>695209447Everyone else's quest is worse
>>695209343The Ape Escape section plays pretty much exactly like the real Ape Escape games do, if you replace the control scheme with a more conventional one.
>>695209506I liked Harding's way more
>>695188956Go play it then!You wont.
>>695188956>8k ratingsHuh, that is all that is left after culling most of them, I see.
>>695192360So the PSN store scale is really from 4 to 5, huh
>>695193209It's a fun little platformer. Nothing world-shaking, but there's worse games to spend your money on.
>>695209853They make it extremely hard to rate games so the only people who bother are the ones who feel so strongly about a game that they give it either extreme. Most reviews on the Playstation and Xbox stores are either 1's, 2's, 4's or 5's, with an overwhelming majority of them being 1's and 5's. No one who thinks a game is a 3 is bothering, and most people going to the effort of making a review on those platforms are either calling it the worst thing ever or the best thing ever.
>>695209680no thats the total playerbase. obviously only someone brain damaged enough to play the game without refunding it would also rate it a 5
>>695188956>people that bought the trash for full price like itmore news at 11
