This is a Flop... dont be stupid.

[Drimon]

I need to make this new Post about ''Flop'' because all of you say ''People play this on Gamepass'' and Yea People are playing this on Gamepass and this will Kill the Studio.

This is not ''Must Play'' and there is no hype around this Game so there are not 500k New Gamepass Members for this Game... do you think that MS cares about the Players that already own the Gamepass?
They dont need Games that are played for 1-2 Days and the Pass is cancelt the next Month... they need big Games like Skyrim and Minecraft that keep the Players.
And not a lot of People will say ''woooohh Hellblade 2 is on Gamepass now i will make a Sub''

The Gamepass was killing some Studios because there are not a lot of new Members for Games like ''Hellblade 2'' or ''Hi-Fi Rush''

Saying that this one is not a Flop even if Games that wer also on Gamepass Day1 wer a Flop for MS with more players at Release
HiFiRush: 6,132 (Studio Dead)
Redfall: 6,124 (Studio Dead)
Hellblade2 : 3,901 (yea MS is happy because they all play on Gamepass xD)

And why was Starfield played by 330,723 Players DayOne on Steam if they all play the Games on Gamepass?


I love the Studio and they make great Games but lets be real... THIS IS A FLOP AND THEY WILL KILL THE STUDIO.
Dont be blind and stupid

so because this game is not a Triple A title nor did it have any hype surrounding it you have automatically deemed it a flop? i recently bought the game for Xbox and even though i'm not to far into it i am enjoying it a whole lot.

More game studios need to be killed off. Especially some of the bigger ones. Maybe then we'll finally get games that perform decently with actual content instead of constant micro-transactions. RedFall's studio did it to themselves. You see how bad that game is? As for Hi-Fi Rush. Well that game never interested me at all. Everyone knows Game Pass is the movie equivalent of straight to DVD. But hey, I'm still going to subscribe and enjoy some of those games.

Steam player counter indicates there are currently 2427 players live playing Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II on Steam.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II had an all-time peak of 3982 concurrent players on 21 May 2024.
Not exactly the most, but also not bad for 1st day where half the world is asleep.

These stats isn't exactly Flop material:
24,029 followers
#4 in top sellers
491 positive reviews
63 negative reviews
88.63% positive reviews


And it is not blocked in 178 / 180 countries/regions like two fresh Sony games.

By who's definition?
The game is from Xbox studios and designed for Gamepass.

Anyone purchasing this outside of Gamepass is a bonus.
Gamepass doesn't rely on masses swarming to a popular game the second it launches. Gamepass thrives on continued subscriptions and the more games they have in their library that people want to try or play the more people it can attract and retain.

It is also a stunning example of what can be done with the current gen. it's a fantastic advertisment for Xbox, and for the studio.

The game will go on to win awards and not just pointless game journalism awards. This game will get nominated for stuff like Bafta which will raise the profile even further.

This game will be just as successful as the first. The first didn't gain a huge audience either. Microsoft, Xbox and Ninja Theory know exactly what they are doing and what this is.

The game released. It runs incredibly well and it's just as good if not better of a story than the first and way better visually. By that measure it's a huge success.

They will now focus on their next title and draw in what they learned technically on this.

"game pass will kill the studio" ah yes, then why did that recent indie cat game do 200,000 in sales but 1 million in game pass and then get all happy about it.

MS higher ups only think your failure if you cannot do many sales or good gamepass metrics, or hopefully both. Anyway, they have two projects in the works and one was recently greenlit - i think they are just fine.

This Cat Game was not a High Budget Project xD
And it was cheaper to buy.
Yea they make the Money back and can be happy about it.

You cant compare AAA Budget Games with Indie ones... Indie Devs take even the EpicGames Money so they dont need to gamble if they make the money back lol.

A manor lords első napos game pass cím mégis már 2 milliót adtak el belőle.
A game pass nem öl meg senkit és semmit.
A hifi rush 2023 meglepetés játéka volt. Az hogy a ms ezt miért szántotta ne az az 50 milliós kérdés. Kellenek ezek a kis játékok hiszen látjuk nagyon jók.
Redfall az érthető ,de az se a game pass hibája hanem a ms-é mert nem nézett rá mit is csinálnak. Sajnos ez a MS hibája nem érdekli ki mit csinál látszólag egyáltalán.
Ez a Hellblade réteg játék. Már az első se robbantott bankot pedig nem game passos volt.
De hozhatnék egy friss példát is ott az alan wake 2 10/10-es értékeléseket szórják rá mégse termelt a mai napig nyereséget pedig nem game passos. RÉTEG játékok amik soha az életbe nem fognak bankot robbantani..

Good thing we have Japanese and Korean developers, even Square Enix are tired of Sony's DEI ♥♥♥♥ and woke agenda that they're no longer releasing DEI infested woke exclusive games on PS5. They should have discovered that when Forspoken flopped and liquidized Luminous Productions. Can't wait for Stellar Blade to come to PC!!!! ShiftUp are so based for telling Sweet Baby Inc to f off.

Saying to Somebody on a PC Platform that he is a Sony Fanboy makes No sence.

Are you under a rock? Sony releases PC games as well, especially now with the declining console market. Their games however are not very polished and bug ridden at release on PC.

I own Xbox series X, PS5, PSvr 2, Quest 3, A high end pc (rtx 4090), steam deck, and switch. The fact is there are often Sony fanboys that bomb dive MS games on steam and other places with accounts slated for that purpose.

Also they are woke trash, the only game not infested with DEI crap is Stellar Blade, and that's not even a PS Studios game since its made by Korean devs who planned for a multi-platform release until Sony went and published the game, ShiftUp even told Sweet Baby Inc to f off like pros and they are making BANK compared to this game and Spider-Man 2 which is a flop. Only 2.2M sales lmfao. 💀💀💀💀

Bro, if you think the new woke Fable reboot is going to do numbers on Game Pass, I have some news for you. People prefer attractive women in their games, not ugly step-sisters from Shrek. Also South of Midnight is also another woke dead-on-arrival flop, anything Sweet Baby Inc touches is a massive flop, like Spider-Man 2. lmfao 2.2M sales. 💀💀💀💀

Mike Rowe. Til the bots do the too.

Yeah sure and people have been telling me that Metaverse is going to be success too, and that was a flop, just like PS5 VR.

Hey, don't you talk ♥♥♥♥ about Hi-Fi Rush, its way better than a lot of DEI sh!t games Sony and Microsoft are releasing on their consoles. Game Pass needs to die though.
