Embarrassing display of historical ignorance. It's so funny, the second guys like you get the slightest pushback, your whole argument crumbles like a house of cards. Better luck next time

That's a lot of words for someone who should be proving stuff right now. Ngl didn't even read it.

You should start reading more if two short sentences overwhelm you mentally.

I expected these numbers.
It's similar to Veilguard
We all know what happened to it.

so about the Japanese being a bit miffed over this... why despite the reasons, did ubisoft choose now of all times, to do this...

with this horrible division between people, now was somehow a good time to test the waters.

Wait... no way. I just checked and it is true. The game really does have only 32,000 players on Steam, on a release day. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Hahahaha. I honestly though it was going to have around 400,000 players. I guess this means Ubisoft is shutting down right?

I think they will sell some ips to stay afloat

You're looking at Steam numbers and thinking it's the full picture – that's like judging a movie's success by only counting ticket sales from one cinema chain. Steam Charts only track Steam purchases. Anyone who bought Assassin’s Creed Shadows directly through Ubisoft Connect (which Ubisoft actively pushes with discounts and loyalty rewards), or on any console – PlayStation or Xbox – is completely invisible to that metric.

Ubisoft has an entire ecosystem outside of Steam, and they're clearly steering players toward it. Add to that the fact that Assassin's Creed has a massive console player base historically – trying to judge the game's success off a single PC storefront's numbers is not only misleading, it's just lazy analysis.

Expecting 80k+ on just Steam? That’s wishful thinking when a large chunk of sales likely bypass Steam entirely. Don’t mistake platform strategy for failure. Until Ubisoft releases total sales/player data, all these doom predictions are just noise.

And beside that, there is no official response yet from Ubisoft side, but metrics indicate already over 1 million sales across all platforms.

So did Monster Hunter, before World released on Steam with a 330k peak and then another 280k peak when Iceborn released.

What does that even mean? Companies that are using straightforward metrics with nothing to hide say things like "1 million sales" or "1 million units". Why word it as "players"?

I doubt that's even possible.
