Reviewed so well, yet tanked in sales..

What went wrong?
>>
Didn't make my penis hard.
>>
>>384147253
repetitive
>>
It wasn't Prey 2
>>
Nu-generation of gamers can't play immersive sims and not games in general.
They can only pay attention to 5-8 hours games or multiplayer with short sessions.
>>
>>384147458
the game is 10 hours long, by what measure is it repetitive?
>>
Normalfags don't buy singeplayer games.
>>
>>384147253
bethesda
>>
Technical problems out the ass.
>>
>>384147631
Why the humankind has degraded so rapidly?
>>
Its just that nobody really gives a fuck about Prey. Revived the wrong franchise with the weong marketing plan, used gimmicks in gameplay that are interesting the first time around but quickly lose their appeal. Whats with this trend of small niche games getting massive remakes or sequels and giant marketing pushes in the west lately?
>>
>>384148354
Are you talking about Prey and Nier Automata? Because both had a minuscule marketing budget.
>>
>>384148554
Persona as well. They didnt have the biggest budgets, but they were on the playstation store and steam front page every day.
>>
zero marketing
>>
No advertisement. Bethesda sent it out to die.
>>
>>384147253
The name

>>384147253
marketing
>>
>>384150024
>>384150383
why are people so shallow, would it kill them to buy things for their merits, not superficial attributes?
>>
>>384150523
that would be cool if people knew it existed
>>
It is a generic immersive sim. We have played this shit a couple of times already.
>>
>>384150927
>Where is my Half-life and System Shock sequel???
>spiritual successor comes out
>no one gives a fuck still
>>
>>384151159
>no one knows the game even existed
>no word of mouth
>game was just sent out to die
>lackluster launch brings air of negativity around the game
>expecting people to buy a game they have no idea even exists
>expecting them to garner interest with such a boring release
>>
bad marketing
>>
bad marketing
>>
terrible marketing
>>
Don't forget the people who are pissed about what happened to Human Head Studios.

It wasn't this..
>>
>>384147253
>Denuvo

first titanfall 2, dishonored 2, almost every denuvo game tanked
>>
>flopped so hard Bethesda is reportedly filing for bankruptcy
Where were you when video games were saved?
>>
I ran into a game-breaking bug where an essential NPC despawned like half way through the game and I had spent hours doing side quests before I noticed. I've found forum posts complaining about the big since May complete with the devs saying they'll look into it so fuck that
>>
>>384153357
If you ignore all the ones that've sold well then you're completely right
>>
>>384147253
>Denuvo, which kills any discussion about the game a priori
>repetitive as fuck
>story isn't that great
>combat is shit
it just isn't a very good game
>>
>>384153745
which are doom and maybe mass effect andromeda, both with massive marketing campaigns and the last one underperformed anyway
