Wolfenstein 2 A Massive Failure

archive.is/vLGj6

>Wolfenstein 2 came in at 14, and The Evil Within 2 was 13th, in the list of best-selling games in the U.S. last month. Forza Motorsport 7, Gran Turismo Sport, and Grand Theft Auto V all finished higher (NPD does point out that racing-game sales are up 43 percent year-over-year). This comes with some caveats. Bethesda doesn’t report its digital sales to NPD. The only other publisher with a top 20 game that doesn’t report digital sales is Nintendo. Full-game downloads could represent anywhere from 10 percent to 40 percent of the total copies sold. On top of that, Wolfenstein 2 only had two days on the market before the end of NPD’s reporting period.

>The biggest issue here is that every single one of these Bethesda games are well made and the exact kinds of games many people claim they want when the complain about live-services that rely on loot boxes and microtransactions. Prey and Dishonored 2 are some of the best immersive-sim action adventures ever made, and I think Wolfenstein 2 is the most impressive work of political criticism so far in 2017. The Evil Within 2 has even won over a lot of fans. But for some reason, they just aren’t finding blockbuster-sized audiences.

>208,934

JUST

The russians hacked the sales

fpbp

evil within is not really an AAA game its an AA game like the ones made by platinum games

yet wolf 2 is below it

Who cares about sales numbers? Please kill yourself OP, I know you've been thinking about it.

>up 10,000 units from when this copy-paste thread was made a few days ago
Wait until it gets a discount, no one I know paid for the previous 2 until they could get them for under $20.

>no one buys these games even though they say they want them
>they're great
Yeah nah. Modern games are shit and we'll never get games of yore

>Wolfenstein 2 is the most impressive work of political criticism so far in 2017

This is exactly what people who fucking play games to have fun do not want.

>and I think Wolfenstein 2 is the most impressive work of political criticism so far in 2017

wow, it turns out the mass market doesn't want to get preached to about politics in their interactive toys

>208,934
>even 0 budget indie trash sells several times that

WHEN I WAS

Good, maybe next time they won't forget to actually make a fun game to go with all those cutscenes and UNSKIPPALBE SCRIPTED SEGMENTS

Producers that want a return on their investment.
Developers that want to continue to be employed.

>when the complain about live-services that rely on loot boxes and microtransactions
what live-services do these provide

turns out the market for jewish anti-white propaganda isn't that large

Unfortunately everybody that actually matters in the vidya industry

turns out the internet is full of vocal minorities including those loud journos/media

Why were the KKK and the Nazis on the same side in the game? They hated each other irl.

>I'm AGAINST her!
Who the hell thought comparing the last Democrat presidential candidate to a Nazi was a good marketing ploy?

Shieeet dem rayciss crackas not buyin our product

It's probably quite an accurate observation, assuming your field of reference is confined to mainstream big budget vidya and you choose to view every game as polemical.

Why can drumpfcucks only derive pleasure from the failure of greater people?
Is it because they have no achievements of their own or is it something deeper?

Maybe if they made a working game it would sell better? crashdump.exe top lel

>Why can drumpfcucks only derive pleasure from the failure of greater people?

But I was happy when Trump won ;)

When I had the shoot the dog, I was mashing LMB so I killed it as soon ad possible, then it faded to black, and then I heard the dad order me to shoot the dog.

Did they expect me to hesitate or wait for instructions? Is the game made for retards?

>All white men who don't accept that they need to live their lives under the oppressive boots of women, blacks, and Islam are Nazis! Headline: The terrifying rise of white supremacy!
>Why do you have a problem with a game about killing Nazis?

>I think Wolfenstein 2 is the most impressive work of political criticism so far in 2017
lmao

Why did journalists make this narrative of "if you don't buy Wolfenshit II you don't like single player games"
Super Mario Odyssey is a single player game and it sold great

Everyone please ignore this poster, he is a white ass nazi bastard

Reminder this guy contributed nothing to the story aside from getting rescued, get BTFO bt BJ, and state the obvious about the flying fortress.

Because vidya journalists are de facto marketers.

...

They are making up for it with free rent inside Sup Forumstards' head.

The Switch version will save it

Yeah what the fuck

And Wolfenstein 2 already has DLC garbage with its season pass

Digital Blackface is racist I'm reporting you to the ACLU

why do americans clap?

>happy because le funny twitter brainlet won
You're not fooling anyone lad. You were happy because the liberals lost

Literally explained exhaustively in the game frogposting retard

Look at this fuckwit.
Look at this fuckwit and laugh.

Based Russians saving us from Communist filth!

The progressive left only cares about one thing: Grabbing power to expand the state to the point where they can use it to kill their political opponents indiscriminately. They'll do literally anything that they think will assist them to those ends.

The arts are an important tool for indicating where the culture is going. They NEED projects like this to be massive success stories so that they can use that success as leverage.

Thanks for my daily dose of armchair psychology, reddit.

Doom/the new order is a perfect example of how a game should be done.

They kept the equation simple. Just shooting and gunning/nonstop action. With a little story on the side.

Bringing a story into an ID title is going to ruin it. You have to make sure you have a fun game first before you sprinkle a story in.

It's like a cake. Warm, soft, fluffy, and delicious. that's the shooter aspect of the game. The story is just something sweet to go with it.


Wolfenstein TNO was fun because it had diverse enemies/mechs/and even cool boss fights. TNC is boring because nearly half the game is a cutscene and it forces you to play like a COD shooter instead of guns blazing like a true ID shooter.

Fucking this.
Why would I drop $80 CAD on any new game when I can wait a few months and get it for at least half that, while playing any number of other games in the meantime.

The game is decent but not great. Cinematic as fuck. If it was PS4 exclusive it would be the greatest game ever made according to this shithole of a site and this cesspool of a board in particular.

>This is exactly what people who fucking play games to have fun do not want.
>play multiplayer shooter
>get inundated with alt-right memes and faux-racism
Seems to me that a lot of them do want it, they're just butthurt it wasn't criticizing/shitting on the side they don't like.

>alt-right memes and faux-racism
back to neogaf, faggot

>impressive work of political criticism

>I think Wolfenstein 2 is the most impressive work of political criticism so far in 2017.

>being salty about our sister board

Hello r e d d i t.

S

The shooting is good though

>I think Wolfenstein 2 is the most impressive work of political criticism so far in 2017

>AYO FUK YIPIPO FUK AMERIKKKA
>so impressive

>muh alt-kike

Good job being butthurt about a political group that doesn't even exists.

Awful marketing. I'm not from the US, I don't care about US politics, yet they decided to market the game as a counter movement to current US politics.

>

...

People don't want to kill Nazis anymore, they are starting to realize they were the good guys.

Nice by the book tactics, paid Wall Street leftist shill.

The shooting in TNC is a huge improvenent over TNO though. Playing as a stealth game/cover shooter is actually fun and viable; as well as run and gun; and the weapons are all better. Just skip the cutscenes faggot

this

fuck u russia

...

this, bathroom segregation only existed in US. National Socialist Germany was only racist against the untermensch (i.e communists) and no one else.

whos this white boi?

...

JUST FUCKING BUY IT

>make first game with bare to none marketing
>praised and sell like crack
>Bethesda sees the $$ and activate it's professional unbiased center wing marketing department
>makes it all about current year politics
>game sell like shit
Thanks Bethesda. IT WAS HER TURN! REEEEEEEEEEE

>TRUMP IS SO DUMB I WOULD BE PRESIDENT AND WORTH BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IF I FELT LIKE IT LUCKILY I'M TOO SMART FOR THAT

Hence why I said memes, you stupid fuck.

>Playing as a stealth game/cover shooter is actually fun and viable
In what universe is playin this game as a shooter fun? It's literally an alarm blaring and endless waves of the same enemies lining up to either kill you in 2 shots or get shot endlessly until it's over

based

Add this to the list of games we aren't allowed to discuss because Sup Forums will reduce the discussion to an autistic meltdown every time. What others are there? Horizon is another one that comes to mind

>political criticism

What that the Germans and by extension the Nazi party were the baddies? Fucking hell.

umm akhctually this game is highly sexualized and misogynistic

t. shitter

You're supposed to prioritize killing the generals

OBSSESED

Undertale?

>how DARE people discuss the political overtones of the game that has a plot, marketing and characters driven by politics?

Butthurt SJW ledditor detected.

Your head is leaking incoherent nonsense again user

what about console sales?

If you do and don't agree with the sjw redditors you get banned like me.

Then don't play it because guess what, not every game has to cater specifically to your tastes, retard. There's like fifty thousand other things you can play but LOL NO POLITICAL CRITICISM CAUSE I"M A NAZI ;w;!!!

The only way to kill the generals without triggering the alarm is by using stealth and I don't wanna play like that. Otherwise I kill one and the other one is 500 miles away so I just end up killing all the enemies anyway.

chill it with the ableist language.

3 more years until pol is kill

I'm a big fan of the Wolfenstein series, and I'm pretty upset that it's dead after one fuck up. Hopefully we get some new blood on the series in less than a decade.

so glad this shit is tanking
maybe people will finally wake up and push back against this leftist bullshit

t.neogaf

>Take Wolfenstein TNO
>Make BJ be made of cardboard
>Make Stealth the most viable way of playing
>Or else its cuckjumpinandoutofcoverforevercuckholdshit
>Add 3 hours of cutscenes to a 1 hour game
>Have no boss fights whatsoever

And they wonder why it didn't sell? This game is shit and Wolfenstein is dead now, thanks Bethesda.

>You have to be paid to dislike Trump
This is what Sup Forumscucks actually believes

>y-you're leftypol
Mate, I'm right wing. The only requirement for thinking Trump is a retard is having a functioning brain

>Pretending the alt-right doesn't exist

Are you literally retarded, alt-righter

this is all your fault Sup Forums. you trump supporting nazi white supremacy cause this great game to fail with your viral shilling.

yassss queeeen slaaay

I hope everyone realises that this game is in a distinctly similar situation to Battlefront 2. It's a great game from a fantastic team that had its legacy shit on by marketers who thought they knew best.

Soiled it.

t. leftypol

Get help

>one fuck up

09 wasn't so well received. Incidentally, I had a fucking blast with it, but nonetheless, it was a fail too.

the Ameriboo Swede devs utterly BTFO
