By the way: I love all these gaming journalism outlets reporting propaganda straight from Electronic Arts on how The Veilguard is breaking sales and continuos player records on Steam for the company. How stupid do these people think we are? EA hasn’t launched a new game on Steam since they quit the platform in 2011! This is the first proper release on there from them in 13 years. The fact that it is breaking records means nothing at all.

Elden Ring, a game that is now almost three years old, still has half the player count that The Veilguard had at release. And more players are playing Baldur’s Gate 3 right now than are playing Failguard. That is how this game stacks up to its direct competition. EA spent over $250 million on this shit — versus $200 million for Elden Ring and $100 million for Baldur’s Gate 3. Seems to me that From Software and Larian kicked their ass. That’s the real story here.
