Go Woke. Become 2nd highest selling game of 2025

Are we going to finally admit this game is a success or we going to continue to move the goal posts again?

So you are telling us success to you doesn't require profit, is that right?

Let's hope no one ever goes into business with you bro 🤣

It's the second highest selling game of the year dude. Just give it up and move on with your life.

Oh please, let's not pretend like even direct number straight from every single platform would make a difference to you. You'd just insist it's still not enough and that they need to sell some arbitrary number to break even, and that it's still a failure because Wilds sold more or because games that've been on the market for years have more reviews or some such nonsense.

At this point, your bad faith is blatant for all to see, and you're genuinely not worth even trying to have a real discussion with.

Top selling game for three weeks straight. Second best of the year so far. Yep, sounds like a failure.

... And? AC's always been primarily a console game rather than a PC game. That's still better than literally every other AC game ever did on Steam.

That's been such an interesting point in all of this. People are like, "AC was so much better and more successful before!" then, when you compare Shadows to pretty much the rest of the series, it performs better than almost all of it.

I mean, if their point were that "AC has always been ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥," then, okay, let's explore that, but, when people are all "AC Odyssey was peak AC and this can't even compare, look at the numbers!" It's like..."are you looking at the numbers? What about them? Shadows did better at the corresponding point/all day."

Do you? The only numbers I particularly care about are the hard numbers we have for this one thus far (concurrent players) vs. what we have to compare to for prior titles. And when you do that, it's steam release is clearly the most successful one of the entire franchise.

The only numbers that matter:

Ubisoft Entertainment SA
9.17 EUR
-4.13 (-31.02%)past month

That is a drop of over 30% in the month since the game released - still think it is a success?
