Holy fuck.

70000 concurrent players is bad now
Stream numbers posting should get you a 30 day ban, you freaks don’t care about video games
For a AAA EA game on it's very first day after hundreds of millions of dollars?
Yes, that's extremely bad.
For a triple a bioware game that was in developnent for 11 years, yes.
200k american players will join the game any moment
wait for it
I did nothing and I'll do it again.

Welcome to math. You stupid fucking retard. If you spend hundreds of millions you need millions of sales.
Californians are still waking up
More sales than assassins creed
Dragons Age actually won
Honestly the bigger affront in this list is Cyberpunk having had 1 million peak. So many people got tricked by that scam.
sub-100k for a AAA game in 2024
The best thing about all this is that the literal turn-based, classic-style CRPG successor to their own previous franchise Baldur's Gate is one of the most successful games of the generation that had almost a million concurrent players. Grim. Bioware's done.
HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
The game's development, which began in 2015, has been marked by lengthy delays, several fundamental changes in design, and high staff turnover.
BioWare is a Canadian video game developer based in Edmonton, Alberta.
2019 Report said they had 320 employees
Minimum wage is 17.30 in said location
5 Days at 8 hours every day for 300 Days with 320 Employees
Development is 9 years, but lets just put it at 8 years, that's a little over 106 Million
This doesn't include any other cost of business
This is only minimum wage, meaning the cost for just doing business as normal is likely considerably higher
So with Veilguard being 60 dollars. At only 70k players, they've only made... what, 4 million. Not including Steams take or taxes. Obviously that number doesn't include consoles. Though even with 10 times that much, they're still operating at a loss....
imagine if Steam tracked every unique startup of a game
AssCreed Odyssey was a shit game
stream numbers
go back to Anon Babble
in development for over a decade
the best they can do is insert woke politics into every aspect of the game
So it was money laundering then? i see.
not even 1/4 of slopfield
unknown 9 was literally unknown, so it makes sense
It got reworked twice in that period and presumably got gayer and gayer until the director ended up being a literal tranny.
Steam takes 30%. So not even 3 mil. Oh well, just need another 5-6 million sales to break even.
Steam takes 30%
Up until 10m revenue then it drops to 20%.
I'm still sad the fake reviews tricked 80k people.
The first dragon age was kino
you freaks don’t care about video games
t. pic related
Hardly anyone gives a shit about reviews.
This is just a desperate grasp at nostalgia.
Anon keep saying world is healing
Really is
You guys are good!
I'm still trying to figure out what "return to form" for bethesda even means. ME1 and DA:O were industry shakers and DA:V is nothing like it.
Maybe they mean DA:2? That was successful but also incredibly underwhelming.
fucking Inquisition???
But if its inquisition, then what was there even between that to cause a loss of "form"?
Concord had 700 players and the supposed sales were 15k on steam. If we multiply, it gives around 1.5 million sales.
That's still not nearly enough to break even. But there's no way this sold only 70k.
IT'S A RETURN TO FORM YOU TOURISTS
I did, the game's still shit
Obviously there is more than 70k sales. But they would need 3 to 5 million to break even depending on the actual costs and marketing. But there is no way they're breaking even with these numbers.
Most people don't give a fuck about reviews, they just hear HOLY SHIT NEW DRAGON AGE, and don't realize it's trannies pissing on its stinking, putrified corpse
Yeah, and this is EA. They killed other studios even when they made a profit because they didn't make enough profit.
I would be very worried if my job depended on this game.
Math Chads win again
BASED
It could still double over the weekend, but that's about it. This current peak is about the same as Jedi Survivor's, though that game was basically unplayable on release so that number could be misleading.
There's still the weekend and chinese new year
vileguard sisters... not like this...
My choice my body
You people really, really want Bioware to die, huh.
be more then trans people have.
I only thought Origins was decent. But I will still never forgive them for turning it into the fagfest it was after Origins.
So yes. I hope they burn.
Yes.
I want the shambling EA skin puppet currently pretending to still be Bioware to die, yes.
Concord peaked at just under 700 players.
You people really, really want Bioware to die, huh.
Maybe consider its just the dialog that's bad and Veilguard is actually a good game outside the dialog. It's possible, right?
Mobile UI
Combat is literally MMO tier simplistic with press buttons off cooldown
Nah, game is shit.
LOL BG3 has almost the same number of people one year later as DAV has right now!
assassin creed odyssey sold +10 million copies
veilguard has more all time players
it is actually is over, future is woke
turns out edomutts and their golems were the real accelerationists all along.
videogames can rebuild, but - alas for them - their reputation cannot
c-california will save us
lmao what now you retarded yurotroon? You faggots are the only ones who bought this slop. Jesus, even California has better taste than you poverty pigs.
Why would anyone simp for EA? Trannies are truly deranged individuals, they latch on to anything that gives them even a bit of false comfort.
For Bioware's "Return to Form" yeah it's pretty bad, especially compared to literal flops like Starfield.
when blackrock is ashes, then bioware has my permission to die
Biowhore are EAs flagshit dev studio, they havent made a good game in over a decade, even by their low standards. If EA were sensible they'd have euthanised these animals long ago, they're untouchable at this point i swear kek.
Didnt AC Odyssey come out a years later on steam?
Ever since ME3, yes.
Biohazard have been a toxic heap of shit for a LONG time tranny. This latest underperformer they've spent a fortune in money and time on, and mark my words, they've underperformed (not that i fucking care, ill never play a biowhore game), its just another L for EA that they'll have to make up on their FIFA gacha horseshit.
For an AAA EA game that got shilled to shit and back as the next huge RPG? I was expecting 300k minimum.
70,000 is far too high for this trash
Why are men who cut their dicks off in an attempt to be their own girlfriends so quick to call others incels?
I've wanted Bioware to die since DA2. I still remember how fucking excited I was to crack DA2 open on my first college summer break because I loved Origins and how confused I was that the slop I was playing was not reflecting the 8s and 9s it was getting from reviews.
the average bioware player slurps their own cum at least once daily
consoletrannies will push up the numbers sadly
Even if the sales were 10 times higher, it's still not enough to break even.
Seed the torrent you...double niggers
It beat Assassin's creed odyssey but uhh... guys
Wait, Assassin's Creed Odyssey was a super success right?
Did it not launch on Steam until later or something?
practice what you preach trooncel
"return to form" is the buzzword they were told to say when they were paid to give it a positive review
It would've been good 12 years ago
I can’t believe Baldurs Gate 3 beat it lol. Actually I can because it’s a great game.
17.30 CAD is 12.41 USD you can't just flop around between CAD and USD go back to school + this game was made in edmonton + austin + outsourced
what a stupid post
ubisoft locked the game onto their own platform for years. They only recently opened up sales back onto steam.
So whatever figures you're seeing are miniscule compared to total play for Ass-oddessy. Troonguard is a big fish in a very small pond atm, no big releases or viral games this week.
Even Bethesda's absolute worst slop is leagues above the rest of the slop producers
Yeah I bet a game thats been in development for ten years was made for coupons of frozen vegetables.
Why are you comparing it to ROARING success stories? That's extremely unrealistic and disingenuous. You should be comparing it to more similar games like Farming Simulator 22, Trove and Stumble Guys?
It's a mercy killing.
How did Starfield fuck up this hard?
Looking at it on steamdb, player count goes all the way back to October 2018 which it released on. So what's going on there
Combination of being a shit game + day one on goy pass
You do realize all of the original Bioware founders ad devs left ages ago?
I'm surprised it has that many players on steam considering they kept marketing it as Game pass day one. Either way it was financially successful within the first month so it's not even remotely close to the colossal flops we've seen the past year
Assassins Creed died 6 years ago and Ubisoft shut down
I remember it like yesterday
Not talking about the peak, that seems good. I'm talking about how it went from that to now about as played as yesteryear's Assassin's Creed game.
Oversaturation of the genre
People being tired of Bethesda's shit
Legitimately being an uninteresting game that looks just like every other AAA game made in the last few years
It's not that hard to grasp I think
B-B-B-B-B-BASED
NOOOO STOP POINTING OUT HOW MUCH OUR WOKESLOP IS FLOPPING!! BAN BAN BAN
uh oh, shill is having a meltie
even the left has woke fatigue
The brutal truth.
You don't even need to compare it to other AAA games, even AA indie games this year like Enshrouded (overshadowed by Palworld) and Last Epoch mogged it with 100-200k players on release
Space is just fucking gay. If it was the same slop but set in Fallout or TES it would have more players today, but as it stands Bethesdafags can have a better experience simply playing Skyrim for the 5000th time.
We care about video games. That's why we want troons and feminists kept out of them.
Tell me you don't understand analogy without telling me you don't understand analogy. Fucking tranny.
out of touch, moving the goalposts to cope. typical
Bethesdafags can have a better experience simply playing Skyrim for the 5000th time
Funnily enough I tried SF again for the DLC drop and wound up uninstalling and starting another modded Skyrim playthrough hours later
Same, Skyrim still earning it's box price for over a decade.
It's literally the biggest game of the year. Supposed to be, at least.
Can't even break past a year old game
BG3 bros WW@
Astro Bot is a AA game that was developed for 3 years and its budget was 75 millions. You shills are fucking retards
n-n-n-no you're wrong!
source: dude trust me you're wrong
Why is Odyssey there? Surely Valhalla sold better.
It didn't launch on Steam
WHO THE FUCK DO I BELIEVE
DID IT FLOP OR NOT
BG3
astrosurfed FOTM
People still haven't stopped talking about how great that game was.
You think if Bioware survives they'll make a turn-based game next? Not that it would matter because it would be turbopozzed anyway.
KotoR 3, turn-based, with old Bioware would be amazing.
it's because we're kinda busy with things like, you know, WORKING and HAVING A REAL LIFE unlike you chuddies, not really a big deal, yeah we're just CHANGING THE WORLD
someone call schroedinger
70k concurrent players are the amount of total people who bought it.
Retard-kun...
YOU FUCKING MONSTER
No. I want all progressives to suffer for eternity on end.
A quick dead is too good for them.
But if you do that.... b-billions will die..!
big green number
Sales
massive red number
Costs
That means BAD anon
Kek that is so pathetic. Not even 3% of Wukong's peak. And these games released in the same year?
To be fair modern dragon age is mostly a console series
RIP
tfw completely ignored Cyberpunk
apparently missed all the bugs and jank
picked it up this past month
runs gr8
fucking love it
I'm glad I missed all the garbo, cause this shit is in my top 10 now
dial 8
Erik Kain is all right, Paul Tassi is the humongous faggot.
Yeah but that was because nobody wanted to use EA's shitty platform and the PS3, the Xbox 360, the PS4 and the Xbox One were all popular consoles
The PS5 isn't and the Xbox New Direction or whatever the fuck it's called barely exists
Kain has been having good takes for some 10 years now
Why didn't they just bot the numbers up like Larian did?
They did, you are looking at it.
I win again?
no just the dei trannies
It beat Jedi Survivor, the previous greatest peak for a single player EA game.
Veilguard did well.
Stop coping.
You lost.
It would be so fucking funny if it loses to Shartfield.
If your local band from high school sells 3,000 tickets to a show, that's the biggest success in their career so far.
If Metallica sells 3,000 tickets to a show, that's their biggest failure in 20 years.
You can't make indie game numbers with a game having AAA development cost.
What the fuck is a Metallica?
Survivor WASN'T released day one on steam with DRM
Cope
constant threads here in early access too
It's a british boy band best known for their hit single, Bohemian Rhapsody.
The new Dragon Age is a good barometer for what would happen with BG4
With the review embargo? The metacritic score will plummet. The streamers will dump on it. I doubt it will have good word of mouth.
"I will call you an incel because having sex is the only unit of value I understand"
Fucking whore. Kill yourself tomorrow.
The Launch being behind a random 24hr max for BG3 is actually hilarious.
i don't even plan on playing wokeguard but i'm gonna laugh my ass off when you fags start seething when the weekend starts and the playercount shoots right up
and if i'm wrong then i'm still going to laugh my ass off at how shit the numbers are, no matter what happens i win
try again, Chud
nooo trust me the amount that bought the game is actually 50x the all time high
Fencesitting cuck
This piece of shit couldn't beat Factorio lmao. Stop denying reality - 70k is AA tier.
You got utterly BTFO.
it did worse than Metaphor
It's literally the most successful single player EA game on steam
LIsten to facts not chuds
nta but
nooo you have to pick a side
why
Most successful
[EA game]
On steam
Doesn't mean shit
biggest steam launch
i love this manipulating marketer doublespeak because all bioware titles prior to this launched on origin first.
Having an opinion based on morals and integrity is better than le ebin laughs at everything jorker nihilism (i.e. Dumb cunt pseud)
It couldn't even pull AA numbers. It flopped.
Go woke, go broke.
Just read the numbers nigger
Meanwhile a demo
You are a remarkably stupid human being
You can’t call anyone a pseudo while being this full of yourself
I just did cunt
like i said i win no matter what, you're already seething and all i said was that i don't give a shit either way
Not very moral behavior from you
previous EA game on steam record: 67,855
current record: 70,414
amazing you barely beat another sjw game that failed and is causing the downfall of Ubisoft
why are trannies so disingenuous.. oh wait i know why lol
Game looks like ass but I think I would enjoy it if I was like 12 years old. It looks like they target very young kids with this one. It's like BG3 for short bus users.
Calling out scum is highest order morality
they will claim this game as woke next, since it has no male/female options and you can dress up as a tranny. guaranteed
How long until they blame piracy
NO NO SOMEONE STOP HIM MAKE HIM CONSOOOOOOOM
70k players means they made like $0 of their budget back it's all cost mitigation now
Okay cuck
It flopped
pic rel is the financial report for T2 shortly after the release of GTA 5. Gives you an idea on the cost associated with making games.
FYI GTA 5 generated 1.4 bil for T2
Veilguard is bad because there's no blonde straight human male to take my female character's virginity
only remember DA:I for looking like garbage and wondered why the fuck a new DA was supposed to be a big deal when Bioware has only produced failures for a decade
it exceeded expectations and has sold 12 million copies to current date
They say sex doesn't sell but people sure buy generic fantasy RPGs with fucking in them.
This is an incredible power for us to wield.
>it exceeded expectations and has sold 12 million copies to current date
According to literally no one reliable
EA has numbers for DAO, but with Inquisition all you hear is vague marks and a former employer claiming shit the company can't be held responsible for
not even chinese retards who play every mainstream AAA slop and gacha will touch this crap
stay seething over numbers autist, you're as bad as Anon Babblerannys that have a general solely for viewer numbers
Get a grip, retard. Bioware today is literally not the Bioware it was even a decade ago.
I don't know why the fuck you soulless NPCs get attached to [BRAND] well after it's gone through several Ship of Theseus cycles, letting these game series rest is better than having any recognizable attributes twist and contort into abominations of its former self
Dragon Age comes out
Everyone decides to go back and play more BG3
I don't remember commenting on the steam numbers. You are the one monitoring them just so you can laugh either way.
it's been dead I'm just waiting for EA to stop milking the brand name and put it out of its misery
Biosisters... This could've been us...
ching chong ding dong
No.
I'm sure a lot of that particularly huge number is sold for 25 cents in bundles on Origin or some shit but still.
BUY OUR GAMES BIGOT
Veilwho?
Total Bioware Death
The DAI numbers include the epic giveaway.
You can't just compare a little AA side project like DAV to Capcom's literal AAA poster child
Niggas pretending like 70k is bad now... LMAO, holy fuck you guys were SOOOO desperate for this game to flop.
Why are troon games so fucking shit LMFAO
worst thing is, it's still going to win the goty award
they've prepped everything for it
inb4 Denuvo use this to tell devs no Denuvo = no sale instead of the game just being shit
because troons can't code
they're like two steps above jeets
So what if It got good critic reviews
So what if it got good user reviews
So what if it sold well
IT'S STILL A FLOP
Lol. Must suck living in such a thick delusion. This game skullfucked you bad, huh
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ITS SO POWERFUL!!
newfags don't understand that bioware considers a million sales a big success. these fake steam chart 1 million players bullshit... yeah I don't believe that for a second.
I can believe that maybe cloud gaming servers are all booting the game up so that people can have ready access to it, but this has skewed what people think is a flop.
Have you even played it? Because I like to be an informed shitposter and I have. The gameplay is retardedly simplistic, and the story is horrible. I'm 3 hours in so far, how about you?
Because they can’t help but add their shit in the most haphazardly boring way possible, you can make a gender neutral character interesting in fantasy but they didn’t even try, hearing the worlds “Non Binary” in a magical fictional world is such a lurch tonally it’s genuinely baffling.
I know the writers or pretty much anyone in the new dev team didn’t play the previous games but prime example is Shale from the FIRST FUCKING GAME.
Shale was a DLC companion that was a female dwarf that had her soul removed and placed into a war golem that had a male voice but it wasn’t some horrible downside to the writing.
But no, if you try to be interesting they feel like you’ll miss the incredibly subtle fact they’re gay or trans or mentally trans or nonbinary or whatever, even Seth MacFarlane wrote a better transgender story in his Star Trek parody because he actually implemented some actual creativity, the family guy funny moments man wrote a better plot than this game for fuck sake
FUCKING NAZI!
FUCKING INCEL!
there are more people playing BG3 in the 24hr peak than Veilguard
God damn, that's brutal.
taro cards say we won
baseless assumptions and basic maths are horoscopes for chuds
If I don't play it then it's a flop as far as I'm concerned.
did they also trick the 2.8k positive user reviews?
