Another PC flop: Until Dawn underperforms on Steam with 2.5k CCU at launch. Hermen flees the country

[Exicide]

It's a totally new game for PC. Day 1, not an old port. We have to stop making excuses.


So what? I'm talking about the budget of this project from Ballistic Moon. The same way Silent Hill 2 from Bloober is a separate project with his own goals for Konami.

No we ARE going to be smart about this, no one gives a fuck if its new to PC, no one wanted this remake and the port's quality is dogshit, they changed several things that didn't need to be changed. Have you even SEEN the menus and all the unnecessary changes? The original is 100x better regarding the UI, and atmosphere.

How the fuck are they going to add ray tracing (said by themselves) and the setting does NOTHING. it's broken.

Sony needs better QA on these things and they should stop wasting time, as @John Elden Ring said, people want Resistance, Killzone, Bloodborne, and Infamous remakes.

That's terrible.

We been playing it on PS5 for hours, and the game is perfect so far. They dropped the ball with the PC version for sure.

 

[Shadow2027]

Pc people also never show they like games. Everyrhing has like a 50% approval

I used to lean more towards the anti woke side and followed guys like Endymion and Grummz.

Truth is, they're just as repetitive and annoying as these they/them idiots.

Both sides are just trying to force their crap on everybody.

It's like fascists vs communists.

Main reason I like to keep politics to a minimum as much as possible.

It's easy to fall into these traps and lose sight of the enjoyment of gaming.

Woke vs anti woke is just politics for people too dumb to understand politics

2.5k CCU means how many sales at full price?
That is the only way to have a ideia if the game payed it development costs & marketing or not.

Exactly.

I tried to say it here but people can’t understand.

Don't start with your pollution here too. Even if it's number 1 in Zimbabwe the peak is still 2.5k and that's not gonna change. Realm of Ink and Liar's Bar are selling more.

55% rating. Less than 50k copies sold worldwide. These are the facts. It's a total loss.

Top worst port. Top laughingstock. Top most useless. Top review-bombed. Top ugly. I have lots of tops if you want.

On one hand you pride yourself that PC is so diverse all games are welcome and then you're the first to let us know PC gamers have no interest in these games

Why would care if something changed if you never had access to the game before? Oh no the lighting on PS4 was more blue

Why is Sony wasting so much energy with these ungrateful cunts that's what I wonder

Less than 50k and that's very generous. More like less than 25k.

 

[Hezekiah]

I understand a PC release date, but it would have been better if they just released a port and a remastered for $30.

What people really want are: Resistance, Killzone, Bloodborne, Infamous remakes.

And OG God of War.

 

[quest4441]

Lets not blame Sony's incompetence on the DEI detected or other curators, I have heard people say they don't matter and have no power over the common players. The devs brought culture warring into the picture with their asinine tweets so dont blame people for playing the same game as them.

This should be squarely blamed on SIE trying to make a mediocre IP a thing with a movie/tv show, They abandoned Japan to whore themselves out to peak western degeneracy with the San Mateo losers gaining decision making control. Karma will come knocking for abandoning their own roots, its hilarious that they made themselves irrelevant in a highly nationalistic market such as Japan lol

This is the same company that thinks Concord and Fairgame$ are the next big things, they are cooked and what we are going to see is a death by a thousand cuts. I would suggest we just enjoy the ride and see SIE of America bring about the downfall of the brand within one and a half generations.

Next stop the Borizon games on 31st Oct and 14th Nov

 

[MrAss]

Just wait if/when they port Bloodborne it will also have low ccu and will be reviewbombed.
It will be popular on torrents though

 

[Airbus]

Remaking game from early 2000's like silent hill 2 make sense

Remaking game from 2016 does not

Not to mention the quality is poorer than the original game

Also people are start to get bored with remake/ remasters

The intern at sony need fresh new ideas to bring new game instead of milking the same op over and over again

Recently we got the last of us remaster, horizon zero dawn remaster, until dawn remaster all these game are way too recent to be remastered

People began to questioned are the sony intern is curently being creative bankrupt what people need is fresh new game for ps5 owner

 

[Systemshock2023]

Butchered the OST, lighting, character design and changed the semi fixed camera sections for the tired one size fits all over the shoulder camera...

This is a Twin Snakes level remake. This game needed nothing more than a port of the orginal and free patches for PS5 pro at most.

mate these games do not do well on PC, even the Casting of Frank Stone, which is basically the same thing, didn't do that well. I will always let you know Sony is dropping the ball on what they're porting, they don't listen to the audience and proceed to do things no one asked for, even on the PS side, who the hell was asking for a REMAKE of Until Dawn???

Stay mad about the truth, I know you're mad because you're calling people cunts for zero reason. "Ungrateful" is insane, why are you acting as if they are royalty?

Again, why would you care about any of that? This is a total new experience for you on Gabe's brothel. Until Dawn is not some untouchable classic like Metal Gear. It's an interactive movie.

The OST lol who is even the composer? Does anyone care

 

[Infinity]

and this is day one on PC, mind you

It's a remake for a game that is not popular to begin with.

Just excuses from him cause it sold like shit.

If it’s not technical then it’s the PSN mandatory login.

Last but not least it released too late. There was no hype.

Okay so these games from Supermassive or Quantic Dream should not get made and release on PC? They are basically point-and-click adventure games that were popular on PC from Sierra and LucasArts. Phantasmagoria, Gabriel Knight, The Last Journey, all trash? That's brutal.

If it's not GAAS, F2P or MP you don't want it. Thanks for confirming PCMR are the most closed-minded gamers.

Did you ever hear anyone talk about the Until Dawn OST or Hayden Panettiere face changed too much? I never did until this PC dude.

They always have the weirdest excuses not to play games. High maintenance, snobs, posh spice.
