Steam charts say NOTHING...

[servi77]

MultiVersus is on PS4 XONE PS5 XSX EPIC so a lot of people play on other platforms. Yes Steam is not THE ONLY platform You can play games, just a friendly reminder :) Yeah it lost Players on steam but its easy to find game and is still hella FUN.

[ElDouillo]

Every fighting game I played became dead quickly on Steam but continued living on consoles. That's a more suitable platform for such games.

cope

[Fabio]

that's pretty disingenuous

everyone knows the game is on 4 different platforms, you're not saying anything new
why would you assume the situation is any different on the other platforms? do you think steam is at fault?

anyway, i don't see epic or xbox (which is basically a meme outside of the united states) having more players than steam.

so yeah, steam charts say absolutely all there is to say about the second most popular platform, which is a lot.

i doubt the game can even peak at 7k these days.
the game is still enjoyable but the numbers are not stopping. it doesn't look good at all

[ElDouillo]

Each platform has a different player base with their own preferences.

7k is actually really healthy for FG.

if you actually played the game you would probably know majority of the players are xbox and ps. I see more epic players than steam now.

qualify for what? did you read what i wrote?

you told me i don't play (with no way of knowing), i proved you i do
the rest doesn't really mean anything to me cause it's anecdotal, it's not like you came up with any exact numbers

[Sibis]

exactly, and opponents are like 70% of the times from consoles.

[Saiku]

I agree a game like Shinobi Striker has a piss poor audience on Steam but on PS4/5? you'll get games almost instantly throughout the entire day. As long as this game is crossplay it shouldn't die.

[Inuakurei]

I wish people would stop this idea that crossplay automatically means console numbers are good, even if they look bad everywhere else.

I remember this same copium in the Bleeding Edge forums when people pointed out low player retention, and problems in the game.

Same stuff, different game:

on PC yea. It's on xbox gamepass. Betting it'll stay relevant because it's on xbox so crossplay will help out the PC version survive.

Again.. game has 4 platforms, steam is the less populated cause its not free here

Game is dead, 21 playing.

WHens the F2P version coming out?

Game isn't dead. It has crossplay so you are playing alongside with Xbox players and People playing through xbox game pass PC. 21 is just steam numbers.

Look how that turned out: https://www.polygon.com/2021/1/28/22254694/bleeding-edge-ended-development-shut-down-ninja-theory

[CrustedPork -Twitch]

TRENDS carry over bud. Doesn't matter if it "dies" on ONE platform. That means it's dying everywhere. You think Steam players are the only ones pissed off at this game and how bad the devs have been?
You think only PC players have complaints and are quitting? TRENDS CARRY OVER. If the game is almost non-existent on PC that means it's almost non-existent on the other consoles as well.
Sure if you add ALL OF THEM together you might have like 5k+ players. Wow! The game is NEW 5k is pretty bad for a newer game when older ones that are THE SAME GENRE have much higher player counts by like 18x LITERALLY.
Just look at ranked ffs lmao... 5-7+ minutes for a single match. I can't think of the last game I had to wait 5-7+ minutes for a 2v2. Only need 4 total players and can't even do that.

Making opinions based on assumptions and treating it like fact just like everyone else who screeches about the game being dead. Also it never takes 5-7 minutes to find a match so like everything else you are full of crap.

Yup, it's exactly what I have figured so far. This is why it is very important to have cross platform if you dont want your game to just come die on Steam after the initial hype wanes.
