@PSOCecil @Wario64 was super confused thank you

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@nyfranchise01 @JackmoveJohnny I'm intentionally overexagerating the point to demonstrate the term "over 100k" does not give any meaningful information by itself.

both 101k and 1 billion fit within the label. it is a statistical trick very similar to saying "up to" to which tech companies use to desc battery

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@bgoatdc @JackmoveJohnny 200k copies shifted off 007 alone. I don't think that's the gotcha you think it is. most people are NOT saying digital sales less they are saying there still is a sizeable physical audience and getting rid of physical will be bad for all of us competition wise

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@nickfury2001 @JackmoveJohnny first party games are most of the highest selling games statistically. the broader point though was most of the first and third party games are dropping September/October and then GTA November all which are not being counted.

GTA is counted in these stats even if it's a code.

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@nyfranchise01 @JackmoveJohnny We both don't know because they used intentionally vague wording "over 100k" which could mean literally 100k or 1 billion.

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@Karai_Dan @BoTalksGames exactly literal statistic propaganda. any games that sold less than 100k is not counted and anything that sold more than 100k we have no idea how much over. why didn't they release the dataset

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@ZhugeEX @BoTalksGames let's be honest here what retailer is selling sealed copies of DMC5? most people who want DMC5 are going to buy it at $5 digitally (heavily skewing numbers) or for $10 used (not counting in these estimates). all major stores phase out their older game stock via clearance.

@KillAllInstinct this shit always cracks me up someone attempted to make a song as ass as the real soundtrack and instead made a generational banger that they had to throw pipe sounds over just to keep the joke working

@NicoMFT_01 @StopKilingGames @KYRA_RISING they datamined it and have private servers not the point you think it is. The game is still on the disc sony just shut the servers down because they werent making enough money (stop killing games which I hope you support prevents this).

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@_fod0 @JonathonDrawing @StopKilingGames @KYRA_RISING the data is still on the disc DRM or not. you can play it on a jailbroken PS5. and eventually rip it once the emulation scene matures. protect what exist already AND push for digital ownership. Asmon is only pushing for the later

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@StopKilingGames @KYRA_RISING if I buy a physical PS5 game I can give it to a friend or sell it that does not exist with ANY digital marketplace. I think we can move toward digital ownership but that requires a lot of political capital. physical ownership is something that existed and is understood.

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]

@RyanJosephHart the analogy immediately falls apart when you realize money comes into play.
When you are choosing from the menu u don't have much to go by other than the name and maybe the picture. U aren't given the whole picture until the food has come out ideally every item is equally good.

GTA VI is going to do so much damage to the industry.

[Epictacosam @epictacosam]
