Yes because we all know Steam users love the Epc and Microsoft stores dont we.
Yea seems decent for the 100 buy in imo.
I expect a significant bump at full release and maybe another at the first big sale price. This is a wait for sale game for me at least.
Really? You don't think that OW1 being available on EGS for a year, and only launching on Steam a year later after the hype died down, affected its sales/peak CCU on Steam?
Yeah, i hope they will have success with the game, i don't wanna see them going down.
It's peaking
It climbed to 10,057 as of 10 minutes ago
Yes i do. Go on Steam forums sometimes and see what people say in the forums for Epic moneyhatted games.
It says Advanced Access in the thread title. Mentioned it was $100 and compared it against Avowed's advanced access. Reeeeeead.
Yeah KC2 wasn't on GP.
This is for the $100 big baller version so please understand. It's possible this hits a new high today but it won't be by much. Stay tuned to find out. The full release is October 29.
For comparison, here is Avowed's all-time peak during its Advanced Access period.
Yeah 70 is too much (for most games imo). 50-60 would of been better for this as the first game was just a modest hit.
"I personally have waited to buy a game when it launches on Steam, therefore timed EGS exclusivity doesn't impact Steam sales or CCU"
You realize that supports what i;m saying right?. The only reason they would do that is because of all the lost Steam sales by taking Epics exclusive money.
Not necessarily.
They hit every checkbox they could. Should result in massive CCUs at launch.I thought the gameplay looked better than the 1st too
Then I saw that all the companions look like starbucks baristas and put it on the pay no mind list
The older RPGs are significantly more successful than the new ones, and Obsidian in particular seems to fail quite hard lately (perhaps aside from Grounded)
Not judging, but extrapolating. It is of course possible that come launch, OW2 will become huge megahit bestseller, but is it likely, based on the advanced access numbers?

Looking at steam charts because of this thread reminded me how good this demo was
Bought.
Agreed. With characters and writing like that it's not worth my time. The $70 is just add insult.I thought the gameplay looked better than the 1st too

?? You're the one who tried to tell us that timed EGS exclusivity didn't impact the Steam sales. Glad you're admitting you were wrong.
Every time I start feeling bad for Obsidian, I look at this picture and then I feel much better.I thought the gameplay looked better than the 1st too

It's a Gamepass title, it's not a fair comparison is it? But you already know that.
There's diversity and then there's diversity
Not necessarily.
For example, a recent example is Ball x Pit.
- It's not a heavy hitter.
- It is single-player.
- It is also on Game Pass.
Oblivion, Starfield, E33, and Wuchang were all day 1 Game Pass releases.
Some obviously do better than others and that's great but I don't think anyone expects a sequel to a game that wasn't great will do mega numbers. I'm just hoping it's good and the reviews are accurate.
You just know they had debates before they settled on this shot.
Agree it was pretty mid but the first game was successful, it sold over 5 million copies.
I legit thought that was a butch woman. The more you learn.
Holy shit I never noticed that until you pointed it out. They did a BioWare lol. I swear they're all using the same diversity tools.
LOL so did I, until I watched the companions trailer and he goes "let's skip the diplomacy!" while shooting, definitely a man's voice.
Adding to Kacho's posts, here's the most recent one:
Yeah it may not be the fairest comparison, but still worth considering imo.
the funny part is that they are paying for early access in all sense of the word these days. Even at normal launch 90% of games are 'early access' that are unfinished buggy mess.
Is that a Veilguard reference? I remember last Halloween the CHUDs were despondent as Veilguard rocketed to the top of the charts.
exactly a year since you birthed that banger
Yep. Hawk started saying that on Halloween when the CCUs weren't doing so hot.
