I’m guessing people preordered it to get these numbers. An obviously buggy game slips through the cracks again.
You guys have to stop falling for this shit

The year is 2037. Monster Hunter Tree Storm releases. The game is a static PNG that wiggles menacingly. It makes $8 billion dollars.
Console Gamers I reckon. Monster Hunter World was the same way, a “huge success” despite being an undercooked mess.
Won’t be me.
What a weird take
Recently a gamer news magazine reported that they cannot reccomend the game to anyone due to bad performance and gamebreaking bugs. Just like the World launch which sparked protests over Capcoms 0 refund ever policy.
With SteamDB estimating 2.6 - 3.27 million players on Steam it actually looks like PC is at least the second largest if not the largest platform.
Yikes, those poor PC gamers are in for a shock.
Also, Japan. My understanding is that everyone and their shiba inu plays MonHun in Japan.

I’ll never pay $70 for a game. Still waiting on Dragons Dogma 2 to go on sale. Even if it’s the same with inflation, why would I pay that for an unpolished product that still nickel and dimes me?

Games have been $70 for so long dude. I remember getting Mario party 64 for like $75.why do people act like this is so recent?
Also dragons dlgma 2 was like $40 a few months ago.
