Correct, but we have no way to track GOG purchases, so it's safer to just say over 700,000
GOG purchases account for a very small quantity of games sold on PC anyways
Isaiah Campbell
Jesus how much did they make off of this game? I'm not sure even Deus Ex will have those kind of sales in a month, let alone less than a week
Kevin Watson
>over 1,000,000 people now hate Sean Murray
This is the kind of shit people kill themselves over. Especially now, since he's rich. He has nothing left to do now, he'll fall into that celebrity depression thing and kill himself eventually.
Grayson Garcia
Enough that I'm hoping they can use that money to fund themselves making free updates for a few years I know how hopelessly optimistic I'm being
Nathaniel White
You fail to realize how few people actually follow games as closely as people in circles like ours do. Most people who bought NMS probably have no idea who Sean Murray is
Joshua Jackson
>700,000 on steam
>unknown numbers from GOG
>2nd biggest launch for a ps4 game
>set to become one of the best selling games of all time
I honestly hope Hello Games are sued, shut down and everyone at the studio is left in massive debt. This will never happen but of course even if it did, Sony would get away scot free, laughing all the way to the bank.

even better user. theyre already working on a new game.

Why do that when they can gain positive word-of-mouth through keeping the game updated, bringing in even more money and building a huge brand like Minecraft did?
Then they can hire more staff and make No Man's Sky 2, the MMO people wanted from the start

You could have prevented this Sup Forums
Why didn't you stop it?
Dominic Campbell
You guys keep buying shit games, so they're going to keep making them.
Nicholas Martinez
There was nothing we could do
Xavier Smith

unfortunately people paid for NMS
Easton Peterson
Oh boy, is this the thread where we pretend 700k on launch is a good number for a AAA game, much less one revealed at E3, the event where the average game there sells 5-10 million?
I bet you actually think they get 100% of the money from each copy sold, too.
James Carter
you do realize they made over $42,000,000 from PC alone right? thats simple math 700k x 60 = 42000000
Michael King
Are you serious guys? If you expected this to be a AAA game than maybe this game isn't for you. NMS was never a AAA game, idk where people got this from. Maybe you should lower your expectations, because for me this is exactly what I wanted.

This is a game that's been out for nearly three years and has had multiple sales. Witcher 3 has sold about 2 million in a little over a year and has also had sales
700,000 within the first week on Steam alone is fucking incredible
Jason Green
Didn't Witcher 3 sold more on gog? Or was that only a one example.
Jonathan Collins
They only have "a few staff" in the whole fucking company
Tyler Thompson
Good. It's only going to get better with updates. Not sure why Sup Forums hates it with abandon. Did the devs trigger you all so much?
Sebastian Carter
>the state of the game industry.
>the second best selling console game is total garbage with literally almost no "video game" and fun elements in it
I want to cry.
Cameron Evans
They used 5 in the prototyping phase of NMS
Assuming they use the same amount here on their new project they still have 10 people working on NMS full-time
Elijah Johnson
>people bought into the hype
How's that buyer's remorse? Lol, fucking retards thought it'd really be anything other than an FPS Spore. My fucking sides. Granted, NMS is an average game and not terrible, but after all the hype and lies? No living up to that.
Jack Nguyen

Actually, I apologize. Spore allowed for more interaction and customization.
Jack Ramirez
>hurr i'm just gonna cherrypick two random games to fit my point
Good job confirming you're a retard who still thinks PC is some obscure neckbeard-only platform. Fallout 4 sold 2 million in its first week on PC. That's how much NMS was supposed to do, but it's not, and considering how its playercount is literally 1/4 of what it was a few days ago, and that shit metascore and steam score, it probably never will.
Zachary Lee
Let me fix his math
700k x $60 = 42 mil
$42 mil x 0.7 (account's for Steam's 30% cut on sales) = 29.4 mil
29.4 mil x 0.8 (to account for UK tax on profits) = $23,520,000
Still, not too bad for week one profits

Jacob Kelly
>Game was supposed to do as well as Fallout fucking 4
Yeah okay
Carson Jackson
>1/4 of what it was
Did it really drop that hard? That's a big fucking flop.
Carter Smith
I bought it because someone told me it was Subnautica in space. A bit disappointed but it's okay. Maybe I'm telling myself that because I don't want to think I wasted money, who knows.
Carson Lopez
But how many of those people refunded?
Ryder Kelly
This is a main stage E3 game. What other kinds of games get multiple live playable demos and get showcased by Geoff Keighley and Stephen Colbert? Oh, that's right, AAA games. NMS is in every way in the same caliber as FO4. This was supposed to be Sony's next big thing, something to rival Watch Dogs and Skyrim.
Jaxson Thomas
That's actually standard for game releases on PC
Follow Deus Ex: MD on release and watch the player count drop off fast over a few days
>Sony's cut

Why the fuck would an obscure title from new indie devs be competing with one of the largest game devs in the industry, over a long awaited and hyped francise, fallout.
Are you willingly being a simpleton? Do you realize how small NMS's studio compared to fallout's?
Connor Diaz
>obscure
multiple e3 appearances
multiple appearances on live tv
full advertising circuit from tv ads to display ads in stores
>obscure
NORMIESSSSS REEEEEEEE
Tyler Perry
>PC peasants with no taste show their preferences
Jayden Sanders
It's not indie. You're not indie when Sony is backing you up. You wanna know what an indie title at E3 looks like?
youtube.com
These are indies. Do they get to come out on stage and talk in great lengths about their game? No. Do their games get to be part of a corporation's main big reveals? No. They're lucky to get their game shown off for more than 2-3 seconds in a short clip reel. NMS isn't obscure and it isn't indie. Fallout is directly the kind of game that it is competing with. Both games are presented and marketed in the same way and have the same priority by their respective publishers, so they should be treated as such.
Xavier Harris
That doesn't change the fact that the game keeps stopping itself every time I try to open it.
Tyler Perry
You're forgetting that they love to pull the "they just poor indie devs n dindu nuffin" card any time criticism comes across at how shit and boring it is, but throw out the whole "AAA experience" to justify them charging $60 for this procedurally generated pile of shit.
Angel Collins
Well there were insufferable retards who bought into the hype hook, line, and sinker. Same exact shit with Star Citizen too, and the same exact disappointment will happen. Possibly even more, since some special sorts of retards have spent thousands of dollars on a dream, on a concept. Shit is like the Bernie Sanders of video games.
Gabriel Butler
But with a lengthy catalog of excellent games, including the very popular Joe Danger 1 and 2 (and that's all), the new game will be excellent! Go on goy, swipe the card!
kill me
Easton Sullivan
there was nothing Sup Forums could do
sean murray was on fucking jon stewart lying about his game and several other shows
he shamelessly hyped up a turd and lied non stop, they spent time and money hyping up the game then actually making it well.
I hope nobody trusts this faggot ever again
James Torres
Does anyone here ever stop bitching? What ever made you guys hate yourself and everything around you this much?
Adrian James
Joe Danger 1 was great
Jayden Baker
I'll stop bitching when the game canmake it past the Hello Games screen on my computer, thank you very much.
