It seems like Prey might have tanked sales-wise. Is there any other 2017 AAA title with worse sales?
>>
>>377082919
Sales are actually picking up, nice try nigger.
>>
>>377082919
It would be hard to bomb since Bethesda didn't spend anything marketing it.
>>
>>377083002
No, they dropped biggly (-32%) this past week.

>Physical sales dropped 32% in its second week, which is good for a triple-A title (sales can often drop by as much as 75%).
>>
>>377083632
It had even worse sales in its first week than Dishonored 2. Maybe Prey's AA more than AAA, though, so it doesn't matter much?
>>
>>377082919
Ah, Bethesda was behind that shitpile of a game. No wonder it has more hype than legit interest. Also no wonder IGN changed the review score so fast.
>>
>>377084959
I think it'll pick up steam with people actually seeing the game and how well it's doing critically.

Why didnt they just make a new Saints Row?

Why not a Remastered Saints Row 2?

Why is it Single Player only?
>>
>>377085817
Who are they even trying to appeal to at this point

They literally just made Saint's Row without any of the things that make Saint's Row appealing. It's like a singleplayer blunderborn.
>>
What sells more consoles, sequels or original IPs? I'm just thinking (read: grasping at straws) about how well consoles seem to be selling titles. Even HZD even pulled 2.5+ mil, which is a lot, but seems pretty meager against 50-60 mil consoles. I wonder if there's a problem with devs trying to appeal to the already existing fanbase but trying and failing to attract people that might own a console but don't play a lot of games. Prey seems like a weird case of not being appealing to much of anyone, especially when it seems like the kind of game more people will get caught up in watching an LP of when reading more about it.

>Why didnt they just make a new Saints Row?
isn't this just Saints Row without the Saints? If they ever make a new Sequel for Saints Row I hope they continue it from the Retcon Ending from Gat Outta Hell so we can cut all the stupid "wacky lolrandumb" crap the series has been since 3. I want a straight forward doesn't take itself to seriously sandbox crime main game that has some goofy side missions.

Eh, the reviews are mostly 6/10 averages boosted by some crazy high scores from no-name sites.

I have no doubts that it'll do well in the Steam summer sale, as the PC version is decent.
>>
>>377086237
>Why is it Single Player only?
This is what kills it. If it had a co op story to go through with a friend I could absolutely see the value in it but as a single player experience, it's a big 'meh'

Is this a new Barneyfag spamming this image or is it just the freshest new Reddit maymay? I've seen this image literally 20+ times today and I've only browsed maybe 2 hours.
>>
>>377085817
this will sell millions just like sr3 and 4 and sr2 cunts will be as insufferable as ever
>>
>>377082919
since fucking when has prey EVER been a success? i am frankly surprised this game was even made when there is no fucking market for it
>>
>>377087069
while its just hearsay I do think Prey 2 would have done really well and been fucking kick ass.
>>
>>377086616

well, back to /vr/
>>
>>377083186
This.
Zero hype whatsoever, no loud reviews (except that one retarded 4) or any disturbance in social media. Plus videos they've showcased pre-release accurately represent what's happening in the game. Slow-paced space station exploration with horror and shooter elements. No artificial hype, missed goals and unkept promises.

I'm loving it, so far it might just be my favorite release of the year. Except the story goes kinda dumb and way too generic after a really cool intro. If the ending is up to standards, then NieR will have serious competition for my personal goty

prey was garbage with ass looking characters that literally looked like shit.

wtf is wrong with western devs that they cant make normal looking people? Mass Effect Andromeda is another sign of this cancer and the faces didnt even move.

It's mediocre at best, it's a step up from LOTF but that isn't saying much.
