    Disappointing sales, I guess, but a single player/co-op game doesn’t need the same playerbase as a hero shooter

    It’s clearly appealing to children and it’s not quite the holidays yet. I’m sure it’s on a fair few presents lists though.

    There’s a reason it’s launching on the switch despite being a sony ip. It is a very different target market to the majority of steam players

      Oh wow, I didn’t know Guerilla Games was owned by Sony since 2005. I thought it was a Naughty Dog / Insomniac situation where they were second-party.

      … they really lost the console war, didn’t they? I mean, sales figures, yeah, their number is bigger. But it’s over. They lost the war to have a console. They’re publishing on the other guys’ machines, the other guys are publishing on their machines - it’s just branding, now. Developers won.

    I didn’t know about concord until it was announced to be shut down.

    I didn’t know about lego horizon even more than that.
