They actually patched the game to make the fart clouds optional kek. They should have done this from the start. I don't know why developers don't do this as a default. Is it because they want to save money and development time? Is it really that difficult to program? Just vibe code it fuck.
>>
>>748592887
they're probably hoping that if they post nothing, people won't be able to speculate and they'll get to kick the can down the road until earnings call
to that end, they're probably pissed that some third party posted their own divinations and kicked off the speculation anyway
>>

the grimmest of grim

>>748593137
they wanted it mandatory because they're praying that people will just mindlessly follow them
the second you go on your own messing around with the environment, you discover just how broken everything else is
>>
>>748592887
It already released? I thought people were just farting and shitting and pissing over a gameplay trailer.
Very grim indeed
>>
>>748593137
They did it cause the enviroment is super fucked up and you can easily go out of bounds by accident if you try to explore, so they tried to distract the player and make them focus on just completing the stages.
>>
>>748593137
They made them less visible, not completely gone unless there was another update.
>>
>>748592887
Honestly, probably not THAT bad. The problem is it'll be less than Spider-man 2, and it always looks bad if you announce your new game sold less than your older one, and the fact the $300 million budget thing is pretty widespread meaning they know if they announce a sales number that doesn't reach at least that mark in revenue (and I'm sure Wolverine's hasn't) then they know they'll get shit on for it.

There was.
Also the used market is being filled with copies of the game. I doubt that it has sold even a million copies.
>>
>>748593230
This. I saw streamers easily climbing out of bounds and finding parts of an entire scrapped open world or at least way larger areas. They wanted to mitigate the damage upon release so the conversation would be about fart gas, not the glaring heaps of cut content still left in the game.
>>
>>748593586
I'm sure it sold a million copies easily. Its still Wolverine and normies dont read game reviews or visit game forums. Just retards like us do.
>>
>>748593737
Normies are absolutely in tune with shitty streamers and their reviews.
>>
>>748593542
Theyll release some bullshit statement after a month saying thanknfor you all the sales in that month, not showing the sales were entirely front loaded and omitting how many copies were refunded.

Absolute grim.
Sony planned this game to be their win; I'm sure they even got their '1 million celebration' post already written complete with custom artwork and ready to be posted at anyytime... yet the sales counter starting to slow down as it inches towards 1 mil...
>>
>>748593790
Some maybe. But theres heaps of PS5 frat boy owners that just buy 2K and GTA and little else. Wolverine is frat boy popular and those cosumers dont read or watch youtube. I have a friend whos exactly like this and I guarantee he bought Wolverine without a thought passing through his head. I also know he'll put exactly 4 hours into it and never touch it again. Still paid $70 because he can.

Sony knows when to stay quiet. Right now is not the time to rub sales numbers in everyones face.

Why? Is that a bad thing?

Ironically enough, the engagement this game gets here is probably higher than the number of people who actually bought this shit
>>
>>748595192
its just a symptom of playstation having no competition at all. xbox fags are outcasts who don't even want to engage in their own ecosystem anymore

This is wolveerine the internet isnt real life this will sell well.

This is why so many layoffs each yr bloated budgets. No idea how people make money in this industry.

Exactly bro, it's the internet, word spreads like wildfire, and since it's spreading that this game performed like shit in the sales, then it's most likely shit in the sales

I dont like how everyone is now a shareholfer. I do not care if this makes money is the game any good?

>I do not care if this makes money is the game any good?

That's kind of a retarded take, because Wolverine is pretty popular, so the fact that it didn't earn even a quarter of what was put into it, shows that the game is definitely shit

I don't care if it makes money, I just don't want Insomniac to keep exclusive X-Men rights

no, it's like a watered down spider-man in terms of combat and it's full of sony moviegame tropes where you walk around for 40 minutes listening to npcs say stupid bullshit before you can get back to combat segments

This game is so bad, Claude could've done a better job faster even with a bare bones prompt and for less money in tokens.

Xtrannys have the time now to monitor games sales/engagement because they have literally nothing to play

It fucking bombed.

>>748595463
I think a huge chunk of that is Disney's deal. They take a major fee for the licensing of the character and they also require that the project be a certain budget if they agree to it. 300 mil is still a stupid amount of money to spend on any game let alone a short, linear hack and slash

Already made money back. Numbers will be released before GTA VI release wich is considered the death of Wolvie full price game sales.

You absolutely know theyre going to try and salvage it with a DLC. What do you think theyre going to try to turn its reputation around?

TLOU 2 Remastered was in the top 10 chart sales in Europe for 6 months straight.

>Honestly, probably not THAT bad.
Marvel thinks that selling less than 6m in a year is bad enough for them to gain the right to tear up the contract they have with Sony. Sony seemingly agreed.
>>
>>748592887
Grim enough that Sony is hiring influencers to grift in reels as we speak, raving about it and even trying to recolor the discourse ("everyone is clamoring for a sequel!"). Apparently Spider-Man 2 sold 18 million copies, so I can only imagine dudes in boardrooms are pulling their hair out right now over how badly Wolverine is doing relative to expectations.
