Yikes, nothing redeeming about OP's account.

Its not a dreadful take if its true

The difference? Western games cost a Gorillion dollars and 10 years to make. So when they get 15K players their studio filled with purple haired lesbians goes bankrupt. Japanese studios don't work like this.

Whats true? What are the playercounts now? What was the budget for each game?

Nothing was true it was all bait, you just like bait I guess.

[SatiricalSnake]

I bet OP feels stupid now :)

Avowed is doing great, most people play it on Gamepass, millions of players.. Steam numbers dont mean much on it due to that as its not even a quarter of the total players

So......is not doing great since people aren't confident into paying full price for it.

Starfield and Palworld were also on Gamepass and both of those had massive amounts of players on Steam in spite of that.

Day 2 of Yakuza Like A Pirate
All Time Peak 18,288
In Game 16,869

Day 7 since EA of Avowed or 3 Days since official release
All Time Peak 17.490
In Game 12,013

[StefTokarev]

As of writing

Like a dragon has a peak player count of 18,288
Avowed has a peak player count of 17,490

One game is a AAA game made a by a big studio and had a huge budget.

The other is a spin off in a pretty niche series that took about a year to make and had a relatively small budget.

Which one has sold better on Steam?

Lel.....

Welfare Pass: 34 million subs
Steam: 133 million active users

I'd bet a decent chunk of that 34m are people who forgot to cancel their subs since there is nothing decent to play there.
