    Discussion Nintendo: intelligent, creative, sustainable and completely EXCLUSIVE.

    Many Japanese video game companies are doing the best they've ever done and/or are close to it. So much so that Capcom/Square-Enix/(And others I can't recall on the top of my head) have made mention in earning calls of the fact they're having difficulty finding enough new hires to fit all the...

    Review Dragon Age: The Veilguard | Review Thread

    I mean Asmongold has played WoW for the vast majority of his gaming time, a game from 2004. If it ain't a WoW addon, he probably has no idea how it works :ROFLMAO:

    Discussion Today is the 20 year Anniversary of the best Resident Evil Trailer ever made!

    It's also fun to see which users are still hanging around online still and those who've mostly left us. For example I spot Wario64 on page 1 in the RE4 thread.

    PC Dragon Age: Veilguard releases with over 60k concurrent players on Steam, biggest release from Bioware, and 'Mixed Reviews'

    Follower count is always much lower than wishlist count on Steam. If you're particularly bored there's a couple links that go into detail when it comes to Steam launches and a bunch of ratios that go along with it: https://newsletter.gamediscover.co/p/why-your-steam-follower-to-wishlist Raw...

    PC Dragon Age: Veilguard releases with over 60k concurrent players on Steam, biggest release from Bioware, and 'Mixed Reviews'

    Prior to this version of the game that shipped there were two different other projects that were supposed to be Dragon Age 4. Although, on that subject, a game's budget is always counted in terms of what actually shipped. All previous work that was scrapped has already been counted as a loss a...

    PC Dragon Age: Veilguard releases with over 60k concurrent players on Steam, biggest release from Bioware, and 'Mixed Reviews'

    That means nothing nowadays. Capcom also has cultivated the PC space for years while EA... Well you know how it is, their games weren't even on Steam till 2020 and their PC ports have been garbage(sports games/Dead Space Remake/Jedi games). Veilguard, even if it was a perfect little game, was...

    PC Dragon Age: Veilguard releases with over 60k concurrent players on Steam, biggest release from Bioware, and 'Mixed Reviews'

    Depends on the lens you view it through. Is it a decent Day 1 CCU count considering where Bioware is currently especially after Anthem/Andromeda and the rather poor marketing beginning for the game? Possibly, although TBD for the true peak during the weekend. Is it a good CCU count for an...

    PC Dragon Age: Veilguard releases with over 60k concurrent players on Steam, biggest release from Bioware, and 'Mixed Reviews'

    You comparing them as apples to apples when you can't do that. Dragon Age 2 and Inquisition did not come to Steam at launch because EA had them on their own PC storefront before they gave up. Both games came on Steam in June of 2020, many years after the games' actual launch. You can see that...

    PC Dragon Age: Veilguard releases with over 60k concurrent players on Steam, biggest release from Bioware, and 'Mixed Reviews'

    @ Bold, I'm sorry friend... You can just check on SteamDB to see that there's nothing weird about what we're seeing here. Follower count progression/wishlists indicated a launch in the 100k+ range CCU peak(on the weekend when EU and NA can play at the same time) unless there's widespread...

    Leak Game File: Creative Director Brian Horton is leaving Wolverine now working on Perfect Dark. Ratchet & Clank leads helming Wolverine.

    Some people only recall the initial slide which was a internal projection: The initial slide in the leak was a projection from Insomniac from before the game came out. Considering that it lowballed Morales/SM2/Rift Apart, one would have to assume that particular slide was the most conservative...

    Leak Game File: Creative Director Brian Horton is leaving Wolverine now working on Perfect Dark. Ratchet & Clank leads helming Wolverine.

    Both the Creative Director and Game Director have been swapped. But recall that both the Art Director and one of the co-Narrative Director also left not too long ago. Both poached by CDProjektRed Boston(they're in charge of the CP2077 sequel). At first I thought nothing of it, especially for...

    Leak Game File: Creative Director Brian Horton is leaving Wolverine now working on Perfect Dark. Ratchet & Clank leads helming Wolverine.

    I want to apologize, I woke up from an unscheduled nap and its near midnight so I was a bit bored and groggy and decided to a little bit non serious. I had forgotten that you're one of the few users here that is almost exclusively about industry talk and would reply in a totally logical and...

    Leak Game File: Creative Director Brian Horton is leaving Wolverine now working on Perfect Dark. Ratchet & Clank leads helming Wolverine.

    You know this isn't what I wrote and never made that argument. I play melee only builds and enjoy them for more than 16 hours, therefore it is peak, in my very subjective opinion.

    Leak Game File: Creative Director Brian Horton is leaving Wolverine now working on Perfect Dark. Ratchet & Clank leads helming Wolverine.

    Pure melee builds is the pinnacle of gaming, sorry I don't make the rules.

    Nintendo Nintendo announces Nintendo Music

    Alarmo gadget, Nintendo Music, NSO Playtest are all things they've announced in the last month aimed at subscribers. Either to keep people subscribed with more value added or to convince more people to sign up. Seems like a very concentrated effort on their part to increase revenue generation...

    News Capcom FY25 First Half Unit Sales By Hardware: PC 54% / PS+Switch+Xbox 46%

    That's normal, they don't have any big releases in this FY so far. Last year they had SF6 at this point(and good legs from RE4R outside of the first quarter). Capcom still plans to sell the most software in a FY ever continuing their record run. Basically that means they're confident Monster...

    Rumor Kotaku: Concord budget was $200M which did not include marketing, the sale of IP rights or the acquisition of the studio

    "Light" can still be something like 50M for marketing. I know people go "yeah I spoke to some friends and nobody knew this existed" in movies/games.But that's normal for cheaper marketing campaigns. Only the 100-150M marketing campaigns for games/movies truly reach everyone, although you'll...
