What went so horribly wrong? I've played the game for a

Well, one obvious problem is that the setting doesn't catch anyone's attention with its (at least apparent) originality.

Huh? How the fuck is the setting of Conquistador original? It has been depicted in all sorts of media so many times it defies quantification.

Not so common in vidigams. Hell, history itself isn't greatly represented so much as its trapping and relics are worn like the new skin of a shape-shifting beast, flitting about as vague semblances of old cultures with a strong preference for European feudalism.

It'd be better to compare Conquistador numbers from not too long after its release. I know I only bought it when it was on sale a couple years back
>>379577004
it's not even remotely common in video games. that was honestly a big draw for me. vikings are a bit oversaturated, although I'm sure they did a better job than most media does

because viking setting is for numale redditors while conquistador new world setting is the shit

Kickstarter is great marketing tool. EV had zero marketing unlike EC.

sjw shit

>>379575270
You expect the numbers to shore up to conquistador´s levels wheres the prior title had years to get to that point. Also several humble bundles.

>>379575270
Its fundamentally the same game, and they should have realized with only 100k sales that the core game wasnt great.

>>379575270
I didn't even know it was out

>>379575270
great game and relatively different from the previous one, conquistador was survival driven when viking is about conquest

the game fucking crashes when travelling to Ribe

I thought they've already ironed out all the bugs, no?

Ex:Conq has been in multiple bundles and sales, etc

Ex:Vik has only been out for a while
