>There’s significant interest and engagement from the community, with the Steam Charts showing that the game peaked at 95,863 users playing consecutively and now averages around 25,000 players a day since its release.
>This is quite bizarre given that even during the very busy late summer, early fall rush of AAA games, Giant Bomb had time to review Volition Software’s uninspired Agents of Mayhem on August 22nd, 2017.
>What’s the significance of this? Well,The game also only ever peaked at 3,665 players even during its launch, according to Steam Charts.
>Agents of Mayhem sold so poorly that Volition was forced to layoff staff.
>The game also launched in a month that saw the release of Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, Uncharted: Lost Legacy, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, Pillars of Eternity and Sonic Mania just to name a few.
>Giant Bomb prioritized an absolute sales dud during a month with major releases back in August of 2017, but had no interest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance even though the only notable new games to come out in February has been Dynasty Warriors 9, EA Sports UFC 3, Shadow of the Colossus Remake and Metal Gear Survive. Most of everything else is either an indie game, a mid-budget title, or a re-release.
Hottest game out there gets ignored. Thoughts Sup Forums?
>Thoughts About this thread, you're a drama eating shit sniffer that likes to stir the pot.
About the topic of discussion, they're a bunch of sopping vaginas, and anyone who seriously adds or subtracts points from a creation based on the color of the skin of the people within it are disingenuous fucknobs.
Your first thought would be that this is the work of a bot but some people really are this autistic.

I'm just glad this finally killed Sup Forums's hard-on for Giant Bomb. This game is successful despite everyone going against it and that makes me happy. Even if all the hit pieces dropped the score unjustly.
Brandon Murphy
Did that autistic shitposter actually get his ramblings published on a website?
David Bailey
>I'm just glad this finally killed Sup Forums's hard-on for Giant Bomb. Hahahaha, you wish. See you at E3 for the E3 Giant Bomb threads, buddy.
Cooper Sanchez
how much damge did gg did to these people?
Easton Russell
i don't know, last year's stream was pretty depressing
Is it hard to believe that Kingdom Come is selling for much of the same reasons that Hatred did? People saw the press about the game, except this time instead of it being some random twin-stick shooter, it's the Skyrim 2. The game is not that good, and I'm not surprised Giant Bomb guys are not interested in it.
Noah Cox
Hatred did not sell nearly this well. Get a grip, you delusional suck-up.
Connor Walker
>people saw the press about the game The vast majority of people had no idea what was happening, you need to stop thinking Sup Forums and resetera are like the rest of the internet/the gaming community The Steam discussion threads didn't have any mentionings of the """controversy""" until after release and that's because of all the hit pieces.
Aaron Carter
It still sold decently
Noah Price
>comparing to Lawbreakers Well gee now any game sold well!
Lincoln Nguyen
Indie vs triple A publisher Nexon
Henry Gomez
It broke 100K copies fairly quickly after Steam release. But yes, it did not sell as well, because first-person medieval games have way more interest in them than twin-stick shooters do.
No, people did not care about controversy. They simply saw the game mentioned on Twitter and maybe on websites. This is the same thing that caused Senran Kagura and Dragon's Crown to sell, they were brought into potential buyers who wouldn't have known about them othervise.

Kayden Wilson
Jesus Christ, I'm not saying that people care about press. If they did, the game wouldn't have sold at all and would have bunch of troll reviews on Steam from bandwagoning people. What is happening is that coverage that the game is getting is working as advertising. People don't care about what the articles say, they see screenshots and think "Oh wow, this looks cool!"
Luke Evans
There's why.
Lucas Hill
They're morbidly obese, have no moral fiber, and eat nothing that contains fiber. Asside from being shaped like blobs, and the dullness of their unwashed skin which you can almost smell with your eyes, their only distinguishing characteristics are self drawn, by carefully cutting and shaving the pubic hair on their faces in to an illusion of bone structure that can make itself visible through such thick padding of blubber. They're such spiritually empty people who have bodies that are large and spreading indiscriminantly in every direction, reaching that which is just out of reach with their stench, in a pathetic, desperate, misguided attempt to gain lost ground in their already lost battle to find any kind of meaning in their lives. They can convince themselves well enough, along with the inherent sedation of it, that to eat pies and doritos and to take massive morning shits gives value to their existence, but to convince others they, being as mentally fat and worthless, reach from their lethargy for the low laying box of donuts that is a virtually effortless appeal to all those who identify only as victims, as they do. A blob doing what a blob does to join with other blobs in their attempt to become an even larger blob. Forever expanding in their shapeless, and amorphous, malignancy, hoping to one day, if only by accident, devour anything of transcendant value, while doing everything they can do to avoid such a fate.
Anthony Scott
Giant bomb doesn't cover a lot of games. There are a lot of games and they have limited staff. Hell, they cover old games more than they cover new releases at this point.
Brayden Harris
American opinions are worthless anyway. They have proven that much.

I find it hilarious that Lawbreakers is considered an AAA game and sold so poorly. I wonder what the budget was.
Hunter Fisher
It's been fucking years since anything "Gamer Gate" related actually happened and yet these fucking SJWs and faggots all over still quake in their boots and pretend like it exists and act like it's the boogeyman

When people stop being mad that someone doesn't really want to cover a game they like.

Those fucking [censored] were dead to me the day they cried about MUH WHITE SUPREMACY because the Palmer Luckey wanted to fund online memes in support of Trump. They're all far left trash who deserve the [censored.]
Dominic Mitchell
That's pretty much the point is it's watching a Trainwreck. I can't seriously believe that anyone takes anything seriously with Abby on staff
Jaxson Hernandez
these spam threads are the only reason I knew there was bad press. I heard about it from digital foundry posting a video about its terrible console performance. stop assuming shit
Jack Perry
That's great and all but where's the patch Danny boy?
Christian White
I wish there are meme drawings of Giant Bomb.
Austin Carter
The dev is kind of an asshole but the game is good and he's not the only one who worked on it. GB and their constant progressive puritan act has gotten pretty stale.
Owen Wright
why does it look so stupid when you censor your own posts
Its like when Cliffy B says BADD*SS

It was only Abby that said this. GB isn't one person.

They don't cover a bunch of popular games. Can't blame everything on GG.
