Maybe but they need to get Everwild done soon IMO.
Financially, I don't think there is any debate about it. I think a lot of folks want Rare of old, but that ship has sailed
So they could run the Nintendo into the ground like all their own platform? lol no thanks.
With player numbers sure, but some of the older gamers remember the classic platform games with fondness. They made many great games that represent gaming for us.
Does 'xbox' include the converted PS5 players?
Xbox and PS fanboys claiming they won.Just wait until all those PS players take to the open seas
Tip for you new PS players who have never played, turn off cross play for awhile as you are going to be the "Christmas Noobs"

Not to rain on anybody's parade because I'm happy for rare but the fact that it released a long time ago makes cumulative tallies like clicks, views, or plays less impressive not more (it was 2018 btw).
Why does it have to be ‘active players’ for a game that first released in 2017?
The desperation
Just a statement of fact when dealing with folks like you and Oz. The entire community knows it. Who are you trying to fool?
Oh, nobody. But I'm also not repeating the same 'but how many people downloaded and instantly deleted it' dumbassery multiple times in the same thread either
Stay mad, my bro.
Of course they do.
The vast majority dont absolutely and nobody is taking away from Sea of theives popularity but what you're doing here is completely disingenuous.
Wolong isn't a very popular single player game let alone a popular GaaS game. Attacking somebody who asks "but what's it's active users" as if that's not the more important metric to a GaaS game and suggesting it's an old (2018) game as if that makes concentrating on the cumulative tallies more impressive isn't right and I'm sure you know that. If you want to compare to GaaS games that have been out a long time there are plenty out there and you can see the tallies do reach those numbers and more Rainbow Six: Siege 85M (likely 100M now), Warframe, 75M... Being an older game doesn't make a player count tally more impressive it makes it less impressive and what usually matters in a GaaS game is active players now.

not sure what you're laughing at but if it's related to my analysis regarding death stranding being able to accumulate players over a decade:
Asking a basic question is console warring now? I have no allegiances to any particular plastic box or platform, unlike you.
You're the only one console warring in this thread, y'know.
Yes, most games never reach that number. However, there is a point to be made on whether those were active users or not. Its why this metric means *absolutely nothing*. I love Final Fantasy XIV and it had reached "25 million users" back in December of 2021. That doesn't mean 25 million active users. That doesn't even mean 1 million active users. Its a meaningless metric primarily used for warriors like yourself to feel good about your favorite plastic box/company.

The 10M milestone for DS was "hit in 3 years" from release but that milestone was on Nov 2022. It hit PS+ (only extra and premium on June 2022 (a very low subscribers service because it launched that same month) and PC only gamepass August 2022 (before being removed shortly after too) . The time between release into those services and that 10M milestone announcement is no more than 5 months of players accumulating in a low sub count service. so trying to pass it off as if it couldn't reach that milestone in a decade of subscription services with users clicking on it is just wrong. That comparison is simply not valid.

Nov 2022: 10M
Dec 2023: 16M
Nobody downplayed the number though. I said I'm happy for rare and that nobody is taking away from its popularity. I only said that Ozriel mentioning the age of the game like that's a bad thing works in its favour rather than against when it comes to tally counts. That's not detrimental to cumulative tallies, it's the complete opposite. Then he completely disingenuously mentioned DS with a tally not even 5 months worth of subs as 3 years even though in a year past that 10M it had gained 6M more. Years absolutely work for these cumulative numbers not against.
