Ridiculous pricing

[Traumaturgy]

Good luck with that, indie/AA game for 50$/45e, sorry but nope. Im a fan of soulslikes but not gonna buy clearly overpriced games. Especially considering mediocre (~7/10) reviews.

It will never do well enough for these people to even recoup the costs, let alone make profit (if they keep this crap up).

1. It's a new studio with no history, releasing a brand new IP so zero brand recognition. Doesn't even have a demo out so people could try it first to see if its their kind of jank.

2. Abyssmal marketing. If I didn't accidentally click on the main page and scroll down to new releases I wouldn't even know it was out. Last I heard something about this game was during the PCgamer event.

3. It's not available on any 3rd party sites whatsoever which is another massive downside for multiple reasons

4. It is overpriced with no regional pricing. Put it however you like but its a fact the game is overpriced in its category.
It costs 10$ more than steelrising (which I believe to be on the same level as this but with much better optics) and the same price as Lies of P in my region right now lmao.
This means it will basically not sell anywhere outside of EU and NA where the standard is overall much higher.

5. It's a fact that for Singleplayer soulslike games like this release date is the highest organic player count they will ever have and this game didnt even manage to surprass 900 (817 to be exact). It's all downhill from there and that is an unfortunate truth of the gaming industry.

Unless they pay some big streamers/youtubers to play it this is the best it will ever be.

I could go on but I'll let time be the judge and drop a "I told you so" in a month when its got players in double digits.

I refunded, something is off with this game. I will check back in on it in a few months.

Im watching a stream and it just drips 'we wanted to but we aren't capable of such'
