>not even a week>50% of players goneWhy does this keep happening to so-called 10/10 games?
Game is the definition of mid and the first Hollow Knight is just a much better game in every sense.
>not even 569k peakflop
>>720114468t. Assmad filtered anon
>>720114468Normies jump on the bandwagon and get filtered by game difficulty. It's actually a good thing.
What are the jannies even doing? These steam chart threads need to be bannable immediately.
>>720114468some % of players will always stop playing after they decide it's not for them, or after finishing the gameat release is where players peak because that's when everyone finally is able to play, so people who are waiting for it are all concentrated together on that day. after that point players are diluted across timebut they're not all going to stay playing it forever. at some point you finish playing and move on
>/v/ said this will beat bg3 and eldenring this weekend Lol
>>720114827oy vey, shut it down.
>>720114879Did pretty well for an indie title.
>>720114978>ubisoft wanting to improve the quality of /v/Umm based?
>>720114468the so called 10/10 games don't have battlepasses and daily challenges to keep you hooked so once you beat them you can stop playing them
It happens literally EVERY game.
>>720114989>Did pretty well for an indie title.It was by far the most overhyped game after GTA6.
>>720114468It keeps happening to gamers with extense libraries but low completion rate.
>one and done single player gameyou niggas retarded
>>720114468losers celebrate the failure of otherswinners focus on making their own victoriessilksong already sold millions and has great reviews, cope harder loser
Why do /v/cels love talking about other people playing games so much?
>>720114879>almost 600k peak is somehow bad for a literally who 3 man studioYou are not even trying at this point
>>720114468>>50% of players goneIt's called monday.
>>720115286Yes that is bad for 7 years non stop shilling
>>720115264>silksong already sold millionsso did starshit, and 76% isn't that great.
>Buy game>Play for 10 minutes>Yeah, this game is great, I don't need to refund it>Let it sit in my backlog until years later when the 3rd game is outWhy am I like this?Please help me.
>>720114468Its a short game they probably beat it
>>720115047if they wanted to improve the quality of /v/ they'd stop making video games
>>720115351starfield is a typical bethesda game, I see really no difference between that and their other gamesmaybe people finally realized their games are shitalso unlike silksong it has bad reviews, also if you remove chinese reviews because of bad translation silksong sits at ~90%cope harder
>>720114468It's a FOTM game backed by zoomers pissing themselves from the hype of a "long" wait. It wasn't really that long of a wait at all, but I guess to the extremely young HK audience it felt like it.
>>720114468Normalfaggot hypemonkeys got filtered by the difficulty and gamers already finished it since it's a short game that can be completed in 10-15 hours.I'm surprised it hasn't dropped to sub-100k yet.
>>720115532>CHINESE REVIEWS DON'T COUNTlmao
>>720114468>Is the game Online?>If NO, then steam charts means nothing/pointless.
>>720114468games are supposed to be played until they are no longer fun, then dropped for the next game there are no universally good gamesthere are no eternally good gamesthey are just toys to be played with, then discarded, nothing more
>>720115532>also if you remove chinese reviews because of bad translation90% of Chinese reviews don't say anything about translation. What are you on about? You can trasnlate their reviews, you know?
>>720115583For some reason people count the release of HK instead of the last update for time.9 years is a long time but in reality because of the last update it was much less
>>720115505b-but if they stop delivering flopslop then what are we going to talk about?
I dropped it because it doesn't have battle pass so it doesn't respect my time...
>>720114468They finished the game.
>>720115532>also unlike silksong it has bad reviews, also if you remove chinese reviews because of bad translation silksong sits at ~90%Koreans and Nips don't have the same problem, but their reviews are also mixed.The East and West are really divided on this game.Most likely because one was super hyped about it, and another just learned about HK and didn't find it anything special.
>>720115810id say they do count if theyre reviewing the game>translation badisnt really a real review. Ive played plenty of shitty MTL games and got the gist enough to get by anyway. Who cares about the gooks issues, they should learn english then.
>>720115253>no blacks>no gays>no anti male rhetoric>no ebonics>no rap>no r+b>no rainbowflags>no gender studies essaywhat, its "woke" because the MC is a female bug? A bug established in the first game you didnt call woke?you are trying too hard to fit in.
>a game out on every single fucking gaming platform aside from mobile phones>why is it only 500k people on steam? >the game that's also out on the microsofts' gamepass??you stupid retard
>>720116507>Game crashes PSN>Game crashes Eshop>Game crashes Steamstore>"n-no its a flop okay!"Steam didnt go down when people were downloading 160gbs of BG3. but hey, OP is not just retarded, but also specifically shotted the daily dip when people are in bed and thinks he has a point kek
>>720116487Hornet had sex with several different mates, so yes it is woke.
>>720114468>/v/yard forgot that most people have work and school at Monday morning
>>720114468Retrasado
>>720115810>>720115945if only one region has bad reviews then it's safe to assume the game is good when it comes to its core, I understand why they review it badly if the translation truly sucks, but it doesn't affect me and the rest of the world and it's exactly why this game is a best seller with overly positive reviewsC O P E harder loser
>>720116750Do you even actually like videogames or do you just come to /v/ to jump into random threads and "argue" with people?
>>720114468>14 hours long slop of the week>probably has 0 replayability >indie game on top of thatWhat are we supposed to do? Mod it with porn models or keep it idling ad infinitum to please you op?
>>720114468I beat the game. Probably about 85% completion. I was gonna do the rest for Act 3, but I thought the final boss was awful, so I'm not gonna bother. I'll go back in a few months or something
>>720114468Simple reasons: >singleplayer game, most will do one playthrough and that's it>people who got filtered dropped it>bandwagon normies don't do full playthroughs, usually just a few sessions to chase the hype/fit inIt's also not a live service game, they could care less if player counts drop like a rock after a week.
>>720116876>>probably has 0 replayabilityDoesn't the game have a bunch of different endings?
>>720116583Your source is a /v/ edit
>>720115047if Ubisoft wants to improve the quality of the board they should start by stopping their paid shill campaign here
>>720115345No it's not.
>>720114468>10/1010/10 in hypepeople paid $20 to see what the fuss was about, spent a few hours playing it and moved on.
>>720114468>Why does the playercount go down after the weekend?What a fucking enigma. I don't think we can solve this one.
ban steamcharts threads.
People treating every game as if it should be a live service game with consistently high player counts is probably the worst thing to happen to /v/ in years
>>720116487I can't confirm for part 2, but in part 1 there was a lezbian NPC who constantly reminds you how gay they are. I don't know if that's still a thing in part 2. Also the beads you collect and crush are Catholic rosary beads, they wouldn't do this any other religious icon, the devs have a bluesky account.
BAN CHARTS THREADSBAN DISCUSSING PLAYER NUMBERS,NUMBER OF SALES AND REVENUETALK ABOUT THE FUCKING GAME ITSELF OR FUCK OFFI DONT CARE ABOUT SHILLSONG EITHER I JUST HATE ALL CHARTS FAGGOTRYREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>720117513Basically, yeah. The average person doesn't really have the attention span for or willingness to play games like this anymore, all they want is games where they can sit down for an hour or two and win. That's why moviegames (very linear, always progresses forwards with minimal thought from the player) and live service slop (just play 20 minute rounds or missions, always get rewards and dopamine hits) keep on being made, because it's what normies actually want.They'll still buy whatever's currently being hyped up, because "popular = must buy", but if they play it for any significant amount of time is a whole other story.
>>720117742mods should make a /vbiz/ where people can discuss sales numbers all day every day while banning it on /v/
>>720114609lol, silk must suck arse in that case
>>720115505Nice
>>720114468redditsong
>>720117964It happens with movies and music too.
normies buy the game due to the hype (no idea how this shit got so hyped up), play a bit and go back to playing some AAA shooter slop, happens literally everytime any hyped game releases
>>720117841>The average person doesn't really have the attention span for or willingness to play games like this anymore, all they want is games where they can sit down for an hour or two and win.If that were the case, MMOs would be super popular.2 hours of raids, good rewards, every day.
>>720115170>and done>sub 5% completion prolly one and refund if anythinggame's not necessary bad though
>>720114989Not really for something that was hyped for 7 years and was the most wishlisted steam game of all time.
>>720118970If E33 wins, gaming is officially dead.
>>720114989Gotd btw. 10 years for this btw. Better than e33 btw. Hyyyyyyyyyyyypppppeeeeeeee btw.
>>720117619game have close to peak numbers on a workday during china hours, it will never come close to those numbers ever again
>>720118783One MMO was, FFXIV. But also, MMOs have like two to three decades worth of negative reputation as games for filthy disgusting NEETs.Also that raids require you to pay attention, have autism, and to do everything near fucking perfectly. And that most MMOs have shitty fucking gameplay that filters people hard.
>>720114468Because only nintendo makes games worth playing. Steam is for gacha and assfaggots.
>>720119180But Nintendo make both those things.
>>720114609This. HK was great, but people have been memeing Team Cherry so hard they got too confident and decided to ditch the process of extensive playtesting by normal people. People will just praise anything they make at this point.
>>720116636what do you mean that no everyone is terminally online like me bro?
>>720114468It's a single player game, people play it and move on to the next thing social media algorithms tell them to play. It was only what, like 20 hours? You could get that done pretty quick.
>>720118783the MMO with the build closest to that which caters the short-attention span dopamine seeking normie was probably FF14 but with the current state being that "MSQ is le bad" and every new content being locked behind MSQ, I'm not surpised it's not doing as well as it used to. Unironically MMOs stopped being as "normie-bait" as they used to because now you have friendslop games like Peak, REPO etc etc
the silksissy butthurt in this thread is immenseyour game is not a god
>>720119508>It's a single player game, people play it and move onSkyrim, Stardew Valley, and No Man's Sky are mostly single-player titles too.
>>720114468its a 10hour game at besteveryone finished it and moved on
>>720115532Starfield was not available on polystation and got targeted by the neonazi death cult. The cross section between those 2 made for the weird internet hate despite how well it sold+got people to sub to gp.
>>720119678>Skyrimmodding>Stardewmodding and women>NMSlive servicethere, you can stop being disingenius now.
>>720119678They're some weird second life platforms in a sense, despite being single player games.I have this steam friend that keeps playing Skyrim periodically for almost 15 years now.He spend hundreds on hours in CRPGs but these he just finishes and moves on.
>>720119261So this is basically like Hotline Miami 2 all over again.
>>720118267Move them ALL to /biz/ and let that faggots there deal with it.
>>720115351Starfield is the best selling game of the generation and proof that soul and passion matters in making a great video game. Silksong is also a great game too. I'd rather see more games like starfield and silksong than run of the mill slop games.
>>720119852Not as much deliberate hate towards the player base. More just incompetence for huffing their own farts for the last 7 years.
>>720119785Modding is an optional thing. People can mod HK too.That's not an argument.
>>720119261>have been memeing Team Cherry so hard they got too confident and decided to ditch the process of extensive playtesting by normal people>extensive playtesting by normal people>normal peopleThis.
>>720119937>starshit>good
>>720119937this has to be bait
>>720117841>The average person doesn't really have the attention spanThe trendy cope these days, kek.
>>720119937true bro, i still remember when every server crashed and couldn't even purchase the game>Steam>Nintendo>PS+>GamePass>UberEats>McDonald's>Netflixit took me 731 days to be able to buy it... I haven't bought it yet because I don't like it but whatever I agree with you for the lulz
>>720117841I was going to point out why this is retarded but I deleted my response when I read the word "dopamine". When an online post contains this word, that's an instant proof of it being so retarded it's not worth one's time.
>>720114468It's just too hard for bandwagoners
Silksong would be better if it had battlepass and lootboxes...
>>720118934>game's not necessary bad thoughSanjeet please redeem more english classes
>>720114468Pirated it, played it for a little bit, thought it was okay but I'm not really into 2D scrollers nor did I feel compelled to keep playing it, then I come here and see how hard it apparently is so I just uninstalled it
>>720119508why is that an ai pic?
I thought it was a gacha and you roll for popular bugs like the Bee Movie MC and I was wondering when would I be able to roll for new 5star unit...
>>720114468Four days of gaming without breaks is the limit for a lot of people
>>720114978Ubisoft... Based??!
>>720114468It is a solid 8/10 that gets dragged down because the early game sucks.It is way too tough early on. But, the game becomes fun when you unlock all the tools. Until you get the wall jump, float, double jump and the pin throw teleport it is a bad game mechanically.
>>720119945>devs play games for thousands of hours>become extremely skilled>make the game excessively difficult>players complaina tale as old as time
>>720121259>become extremely skilled
>>720121421would the main developers not become extremely skilled at their game after playing it for years during development?
>>720114468Ban Steam Charts threads
>>720116578>Steam didnt go down when people were downloading 160 gbs of BG3it did tho, i member my friends being unable to download the game for an hour or 2 at launch
>>720121609Maybe 20 years ago. These days 90% of devs dont actually play and it shows.Space marine 2, darktide, vermintide and helldivers 2 off the top of my head. All of them can barely survive their own game on easy/medium diff and streams were so bad it made me want to gouge my eyes out.
>>720114468It`s monday you dumbass, not everyone is unemployed like you to play games at 6 a.m.
>>720114468THE GAME THAT BROKE STEAM!!1!

because 2% of the people who were like>I CAN'T WAIT FOR SILKSONG>HOLY SHIT SILKSONG>I NEED SILKSONGactually played the original hollow knight in the first placethen they realised it was actually just a niche title that wasn't actually that incrediblejust like dragon's dogma 2 was hyped up to game of the universe levels by people who never played the original and look what happened there
I really wonder what would be a percentage of people in one month who actually finished the game once.
It's slop.
>>720125436isn't every game released this decade a slop?
>>720120015It's not even good bait.
huge fan excited to play silksong for the first time
>>720116578BG3 also had preorders/preloads so a million people weren't trying to buy it all at once.

has there been a more reddit game talked about on /v/ this year than reddit knight redditsong?
>>720126651Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?Baldur's Gate 3?
>>720126704Fair, was BG3 a whole calendar year? Seems crazy to think about if so. But yes that's definitely the reddit triumvirate spammed on the board lately.
>>720126704>>720126834BG3 was mostly brought up because of Dragon Age Veilguard released this year

>>720114468they went to work, you should too, useless neet
>>720114468This is a good find, anon.In many of those games, there’s a massive disconnect between stated opinions and actual behavior.Put simply, despite people saying the game is good, they refuse to spend more time on it. Moreover, 70-80% of players didn’t even finish the game. So, not only do they refuse to replay it for alternate endings, but many don’t even complete it once, despite their stated opinion being positive.You could easily write a paper about this. Maybe some mathy /v/anon can do it.
>>720127292ChatGPT, please stop posting on /v/
>>720116823>reviews lower than E33Yep, I think you silkfags LOST BIGGESTLY
>>720127139oh so BG3 and DA:V aren't reddit games, sorry my bad

>>720114468>Less players when the weekend is over and the game has been out long enough to complete.Yeah, we may never know.
>>720127549isn't E33 easier and that helped e-celebs/grifters praise it for longer than silksong?
>>720127549>>720127762Isn't E33 also a considerably longer game?
Why do tranny faggots like you insist on spamming threads about this game?
>>720127882What the fuck else are they gonna talk about? There's nothing else coming out right now
>>720127762>>720127817You can beat it in 30 hours if that is all you care about, compared to 15 hours for Silksong.

>>720128319I'm not even sure who you're talking about so sounds like you're the retarded one. Thanks for admitting it you fucking mongoloid retard
>>720114468after 4 days most people probably have finished it and all that remains are the people who want to see every last bit of content who will keep going for a week or so.
