Denuvo doesn't cost them much.

>>713214580 (OP)
Looks fine to me

Grim

What about platform split?

>>713214732
Why is Sega the only company that keeps paying Denuvo after a year? If it was good business, the other companies would do it too.

>Sega says Sonic Superstars underperformed
>2,430,000 copies sold
The fuck were they expecting?

>>713214896
You probably have to keep paying to denuvo to keep the protection going.
Now if it actually increase sales or not at a point it is worth paying the denuvo service, that's the actual thing up to debate

>Units sold
Meme metrics cause of discounts and bundles
Dollar sales is what matters

>>713214896
Probably because some Japanese boomer running the company is afraid of piracy. Denuvo may have given them a killer pitch too.

>Atlus keeping Sega afloat
Kek

>>713214580 (OP)
I guess it's obvious why they give up on Three Kingdom due to it diminishing return. It's probably due to how weird and shitty CA were at handling the DLC for that game.

>>713214896
the only companies that use denuvo are the ones that still think piracy=lost sales.

>>713214580 (OP)
How do Sonic games sell that much

>>713214896
They got in on Denuvo early on and likely are grandfathered into a lifetime plan. There's no way they're still paying for denuvo on Sonic fucking Forces of all things 7 years later. Or paying to keep it in just the Steam version of Like a Dragon but not the GoG version.
Also Konami stopped using denuvo in their recent games yet Phantom Pain still has it 10 years later.

does anyone have any estimates on gamepass? is it like 25% of sales usually?

>>713214976
>The fuck were they expecting?
You and others are misremembering and misquoting them. They said it was a disappointment compared to Sonic Frontier. The barometer was Frontier as a baseline of how sonic should sell which is dumb in itself since the two are radically different games

>>713215094
No one takes Mat or his data seriously in the industry nor video game companies use his services. That goes for the same for that arab faggot larping as a chink called Zhuge or that white guy called Toto. When are you all going to realize twitter “analysts” are just trying to sell their services

>>713214580 (OP)
>TWWH 3
>2.3mil copies
kinda sad desu, if they'd been able to keep up the DLC pace of WH2 it'd probably be doing way better.
Maybe the Sofia team will be able to fix it up since they seem to be cleaning up the spaghetti code given the last patch shrank the games file size by 27%

>>713215347
>No one takes Mat or his data seriously in the industry nor video game companies use his services
You're insane. Sony and Microsoft don't pay for his services and hand him data if they think his data is worthless. Get your head out your ass.

>>713215406
Makes sense desu. You're essentially buying the same game three times. It's a hard sell to anyone who doesn't suck down any old shit with GW's stamp on it. I only got TWW1 and never bothered with 2 or 3.

>>713215559
nah they changed it so in WH3, while you do still need to own the older games to get their base races you still get the full world map as a base

So was the the Yakuza 8 guy in famistu threads right?

>>713215548
>You're insane. Sony and Microsoft don't pay for his services and hand him data if they think his data is worthless. Get your head out your ass.
>t. Matt
Your company is owned by another company (Nielsen) that is obsessed with selling data and buying data. No one considers your data valuable and you keep shilling your tweets here. No one gives a fuck

>>713215335
Denuvo used to be a flat sum for lifetime protection, its only the last year or two they have changed it to subscription based.

>>713215094
>The amount of games actually being played doesn't matter
>The amount of money jews make is what matters
Your nose is showing

>>713214896
Maybe sega is doing really well financially and would rather spend a little extra as a fuck you to pirates

Read that post better, anon. More carefully.

>>713214976
Square Enix sells 5 million copies and still say games underperform, the suits are just retarded.

>>713216345
Anon, the whole point of steamchartsfaggotry and anything adjacent to it is to talk about which games are more successful. That's what determines if we get sequels, how well a company is doing, etc. For those purposes, what the investors care about matters way more than the amount of players.

>>713216395
Already did Even did a research of it.. Most of Japs company still persistently uses Denuvo.

>>713216309
>Sony and Microsoft don't pay Mat and hand him their data if they think his data is worthless. You can't counter this. So go ahead and deflect again.
Nielsen is in the data business of buying data from other companies and selling it to those who think it’s useful, and your business was acquired for said reason to outcompete players like Ipsos and the like. If no players in the gaming industry are buying this data, what does that tell you about the reliability and usability of said data? It’s worthless and the proof is in the pudding, no other company in the industry buys said data for their own FP&A and competitor analysis. You gotta be a sorry piece of shit to be shilling on here Mat, and no this isn’t a deflection. Your company does not provide any value but to exacerbate illiterate and uneducated users on this site to suck off your proverbial and metaphorical “expertise.” If you’re providing such value to the industry, why do you continue to post on Twitter to advertise your services? Why is it that you, Zhuge, and Serkan retweet each other like a metaphorical circle jerk? I’d like to see the mental gymnastics you’ll make in response to this post.

And in the off case you aren’t Mat, which you probably are, you are twice as pathetic for defending his literal adverts which are disguised as tweets.

>>713216395
According to Sega's own document
Sonic x Shadow generations sold 2.3 million units and Metaphor sold 2 million units as well. It's on page 20.

>>713215676
I guess we'll see in a year if Shadow Generations keeps it but I have a feeling SEGA wants to take this shit to their grave

Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and assume that you read my post correctly after I prompted you to read it carefully, so you'd know I'm saying that no other Japanese companies keep paying Denuvo to keep Denuvo in their games even a year after launch.

With that in mind, you still seem to be denying my statement, so now is the part where I prove you wrong:

>Triangle Strategy

Need I go on?

>>713217802
Go on.

OP here. I made it up.

>>713217680
What is SEGA without those franchises Football Manager and Total War?

>>713215335
Old Denuvo was perma one time payment deal. After they got bought by Irdeto in 2018 they changed that and then in 2021 changed to subscription model. Denuvo isnt cheap long term it cant be because Irdeto has to sustain wages of one of the best cyber security team in the planet thats why Denuvo got sold in the first place and why Irdeto pushed for a change with how deals work.

>>713218034
Yakuza mines and whatever SMT-adjacent game Atlus decides to make since franchises like EO and Trauma are dead to them.
Maybe those IP revisits they keep touting will amount to something, but they won't make gangbusters so the real kicker is seeing what they do with them after that.

>>713214580 (OP)
>Nearly 1 million per SMT release
How does this compare to previous titles?

>>713218174
I wonder how much sega paid to have permanent denuvo for the foreseeable future.

Cant you just........ Play video games instead discussing about DRM ? I dont really care about Denuvo it doesnt really affect me.... Did Stellar Blade has it or what ? I just bought it yesterday and i plan to play it this weekend.

>>713218596
yeah, Denuvo absolutely buckbroke a lot of thirdies and poorfags who really want to play Stellar Blade
i don't like it either obviously but if i want to play a game i'm going to play a game because i'm not poor or a cuck

>>713218596
>>713218963
I have no clue why I'd want to play Stellar Blade anyways. Same for Black Myth. The games both look utterly soulless.

I am, however, looking forward to Kunitsu-Gami losing Denuvo. Been looking for news of that happening for months.

>>713219021
your loss, both SB and Wukong are very good if you like action games. especially SB

>>713219021
Both of those games have a lot of soul actually.

>>713214976
>The fuck were they expecting?
Probably Mario sales.

>>713218963
I just realize Project Diva PC has denuvo lol !
I owned that game since they released it on PC 3 years ago

>>713218419
Pretty favorably, most likely. 4, 4A and SJ were handheld titles and pretty niche, and then games before that were limited to most of their sales being made in Japan. SMTV comparatively is a big global launch where they actually marketed the game.
There's this webpage if you want to compare more numbers but I wouldn't take it as hard fact. https://megatenwiki.com/wiki/Sales_History_of_the_Megami_Tensei_franchise

>>713219021
Not gonna happen. CAPCOM stopped removing Denuvo since Resident evil 4. Just give up and rent that game with Denuvo activator

>>713217802
What happens when you go off instead of on?

>>713219073
>>713219086
They just look incredibly generic and boring to me. I respect that they are clearly tech marvels, but they don't move me at all.

>>713219186
At best, I'll wait until it's under 10 bucks. I've waited this long so I'll just keep waiting. I was planning on buying it on launch too, but they had a ridiculous price for it. I think it was a full 60 bucks on launch. Fuck outta here.

>>713219186
They don't remove denuvo from RE games until the next one comes out
They'll drop it like a month before RE9 comes out like they always do

>>713217802
All those text and you havent list all those Japs game that use denuvo.

For example BAMCO started to use Denuvo again since latest Super Robot Taisen, so we will gonna see CODE VEIN 2 and TALES game use Denuvo from now on

>>713219073
>especially SB
lol

>>713219404
Nope, CAPCOM always schedule it between 1 year to 2 years after release. But this time is different, they never remove it since then.

If Onimusha 2 PS2 port had Denuvo, its safe to say they have taken SEGA approach for Denuvo licensing

>>713218596
>can you just... ignore retarded shit that kills performance and gives a backdoor into your computer???
No, I dont think I will.
>>713218963

You need to upgrade your GTX 1060 my friend....

>>713219526
I just went through their backlog on steam, the oldest game that still has denuvo is RE4, which is waiting for the next RE game like they do every time
The next game to still have denuvo is DD2, which is only a year old
Monster Hunter Stories is barely a year old and it's already been removed and replaced with enigma
Kunitsu-gami isn't a year old yet

>>713219526
Resident Evil 4 remake is barely over 2 years old. You're counting your eggs before they're hatched.

You should run latest video games fine with medium high settings. Go for it. Play the game you want

>>713219824

Its 820 days or about 2 and half years. Im starting to doubt CAPCOM will ever remove Denuvo

>>713215406
>the last patch shrank the games file size by 27%
Did it really?

>>713214580 (OP)
Why did you turn this thread about an interesting leak into a thread arguing about drm? Are you stupid?

>>713219963
Like I said, they're waiting for RE9.
Resident Evil ALWAYS keeps denuvo until some time around the release date of the next game

>Stellar Blade sold twice as much as Infinite Wealth
I would not have expected that

>>713219963
Look, anon, when Capcom keeps Kunitsu-Gami on Denuvo for over 2 years, we can talk. Right now, you're doing a nothingburger as far as I'm concerned. Sega is the only company that keeps denuvo for ridiculously long times nowadays.

>>713220063
eh i dont buy it. RE2 and RE3 denuvo was quickly removed

>>713219878
>its ok that this fag company has a backdoor into my computer because you can run this thing at ok settings when you should be able to run it much higher
Stop making excuses, its fucking shit and does nothing but ruin games

SEGA never removes it, ever.

>>713216456
So are you an investor?

Its earlier than that but We'll see. In 6 months ill will be right

>>713219790
Oh great! Another Denuvo salesman, maybe you can give me an answer for this question.
How Denuvo positively affects me, the paying customer?
List of possible negative outcomes is quite long but no one, ever mentioned anything good related to your product.

>>713220792
Considering you were already wrong about them not removing it from anything since RE4 came out despite most of their games since then having already removed it I doubt it

Wow I would have expected that three kingdoms wasn't quite the flop you might expect because China would flock to it but I wasn't expecting it to be that far above Warhammer.
Still that's more than enough for Warhammer to justify adding Naval combat instead of spending all those resources making hyenas.

>>713219997
Yeah, they said it should make future patching easier too, funnily enough I had some issues with steam in actually installing the patch but I think that was something fucky on my end.

P5X is probably about to make them a lot of money too

>>713220168
Anon, you're arguing with paid shills. Don't expect them to speak in good faith.

>>713221556
It wasn't CA's decision to make HYENAS, they were, unironically, the only studio (owned by SEGA) capable to make a hero shooter game (thanks to Alien Isolation).
SEGA just gave them money and ordered them to make the game and retarded CA management instead of resisting, said "of course we can do that no problem, it'll be absolute banger"

>>Actually this is the fault of the store owners and not niggers

>>713222867
SEGA were smart not giving Crossworld a concrete release date until Mario Kart was nearly out. By September the game has a much fairer chance not getting cannibalized by it and even Switch 2 owners will buy because they want more shit to play on their new console
Not to mention crossplay being a thing so online shouldn't be dead

its goofy fatigue.

>>713225198
It's not covered under regular game sales because it falls under Sega's online division. There's no unit sales, just gacha and premium earnings. There's less paypiggies than before, japs from all servers report a smaller supply of cosmetics.

Kek, love to see it. I wonder if they'll update their script and cry "of course bad games dont sell!" from now on. Probbaly not.

>>713217214
Frontiers is that high because it somehow also attracted Japanese audiences for once. Without them it probably would have been a million or so less.
What's really shocking is Team Sonic Racing being that high considering the game basically came and went with barely anyone talking positively about it, even amongst Sonic fans.

Oh, he finally gets the issues with his posts! Will he fix it? Probably not.

>>713235173
I mean, look, you have retards ITT trying to say these are bad numbers lmao

Is the Yakuza series and the spinoffs the COD of Japan? You know, absolute slop that gets at minimum one game a year.

>>713235374

for playing pretend stock market all day long on 4chins with sales numbers, you retards sure ignore the real world one lmao

>P5R sold 7 mil on its own

Jesus, no wonder they're taking forever with P6. They have to make sure the new team doesn't fuck up or Atlus loses a cash cow

>>713215676
Nah, longer than than a few years.
Denuvo was removed from World after the Fatalis Update and that was... 2018 I think
It also got removed from Rise a few years ago

>>713235570

SAAR please do the needful and get a fucking dictionary

Did we ever get full numbers on how bad Soul Hackers 2 did?

>>713226924
You literally can find older deals from leaks and its also public how much it costs and how it works now because Irdeto openly advertises that you retarded nigger troon.

>>713235996

Another classic, a poo seething when you see through his scam

>>713236147
how mad are you that Sega is thriving after an entire of year of shitposting steamchart numbers from your New Dehli work site, Prootpreet?

>>713222449
It got legs because of the movie, and based on how it consistently sold units over time, it probably got a boost every time one of the movie released

>>713236147

lmao

>>713236401
actual jeet tears HAHA

>>713232009
I imagine it got a boost every time one of the movies came out since it did get one when the first movie came out. I figured it'd have good legs but 3.5 million is crazy, no wonder they saw value in making CrossWorlds bigger in scope

>>713215094
Yep

>>713214580 (OP)
Paper Mario TTYD's remake which released at the end of the Switch's lifespan outsold Persona 3 Reload, Yakuza 8 Infinite Wealth and at worst 100% matched SMTVV which all released during the middle of PS5/Whatever Xbox consoles are called these days nobody cares anyways.
People are really bad at gauging sales. /V/irgins very much included.

>>713236415
>NO YOU CRYING TEARS SAAAR!!!!!
Dump started btw

>>713216314
Yakuza as a whole is getting less sales, thats reallly concerning, but i guess we should see the jap data to see if Yakuza will keep being around

>>713237072
Gaiden is especially bad and it's about Kiryu to boot. Maybe Pirate Majima will save the franchise

>>713219098
A lot of Mario games don't even sell that much

>>713234376
Persona 3 is a remake
P5 still mogs smtv

>>713237045
>2 hours
retard
lmao

I'm surprised that they still didn't announce Frontiers 2 considering how successful it is

>>713236648
And an indie like Palworld mogged most Nintendo games
And?

>>713237072
Id imagine its because it's a continuous story and it'lltake most people a year to catch up. I haven't played it for that reason. Kinda like those anime trails games

>>713237518
palworld? the shamelessly plagiarizing FOTM that still couldn't even come close to sniffing distance of modern pokémon games (which are utterly terrible)?
that palworld?

>>713225198
what >>713226326 said
The recent news from their financial reports is likely still true though, since NGS is the only (still active) game for a specific release year, so the autists extrapolated some reliable info from it.

>>713216161
The older games are now essentially DLC for the newest one, it's good if you already had them but for new players you can just buy it cheap on sale and get better value than the actual DLCs (or use creamapi for everything)

>>713237782
Still more popular than many Nintendo games

Thing commonly said by retards

They'll probably do so at TGA and they want to focus on CrossWorlds first

I'm fairly sure big publishers have different rates with Denuvo compared to everyone else.

>>713234376
>barely

>>713214580 (OP)
I don't get it. Are those BAD sales figures?

>>713237782
>"Couldn't even come close to sniffing distance of modern pokémon games"

Anon, if I could do better, I would. Pocket Pair says 32 million "players" so we can only confirm 15 million sales

>>713214580 (OP)
>SMT V Fiscal Year 2024

Oof that's rough, do Switch players even buy these games?

>>713214580 (OP)
Why the fuck is yakuza selling like shit?
I thought it was a popular franchise
Sad

>>713239094
Nintendofags don't support games third party games, but they will port beg so they don't feel left out.

>>713216143
Dude bought a pass and thinks he can impersonate mods, LOL

>>713219073
I will never understand 3rd person action slop.

>>713239210
>Nintendofags don't support games
What do they play on their consoles then?

>>713239267
mashing buttons is fun

>>713239289
First party games.... wait no sometimes those don't sell gangbusters like Metroid Dread.
I guess only bing bing wahoos like Mario Kart and Smash Bros sell so they play those mostly.

>>713237793
Damn, no surprise though. Even I stopped logging in to NGS a couple months ago despite playing pso2 since like 2012. Insane how they probably spent more on HYENAS, the Crazy Taxi GAAS, and the Jet Set Radio GAAS than they have on the entirety of the Phantasy Star franchise in the past 2 decades.

>>713238736
SegaChads just keep winning

>>713214896
japanese people just do shit because "we've been doing it like this for years"

you can show them concrete irrefutable evidence that what they are doing is complete retardation and they will keep doing it anyways

>>713237509
it's 100% getting announced at the Game Awards this December

>>713239480
No wonder third parties try to avoid porting to the switch. The money, time and effort to port it to switch only for their games to not sell. I can imagine not being very motivating for them.
Maybe this is why we see none of the recent Atlus rpg like Persona 3 remake and Metaphor get a switch 2 port announcement.

>>713239504
>First party games
But you said they don't support games

>>713240334
Third party games.

>>713240379

Why did you left out the part where shitty port on other console failed while the og on switch was fine.

>>713240180
It sold 1 mil on the switch what are you waflling about? Its the that vengeance multi-plat port that nobody fucking buy which is very funny.

>>713240314
Fell for the grifter talking point when it was proven wrong immediately afterwards, huh? Imagine already dooming a new console that has only been out for 2 weeks and decide its future based off old ports instead of, I don't know, actual new games?

>>713215406
WH3's non-dlc factions just aren't that exciting honestly. Felt like they were scraping the bottom of the barrel.
For me the only thing the game offered over 2 was the improved multiplayer campaigns so if I didn't have a friend to play it with I wouldn't have bought it either.

>>713241057
Wait a couple more fiscal years then maybe we can compare. Because I guarantee you the port will consistently sell high numbers especially with steam sales and not drop off the face of the earth with a number like 10k.
I mean just compare with the numbers of all the other games on the list that still sell high numbers.

Nintendo sucks, anyways not bad numbers

>>713241197
>>713241309
And Vengeance is also on Switch too, so without platform splits for this leaked data then there's no point in niggers here trying to force a consolewar derail, especially when using incomplete data from fucking Chris Dring lmao

>>713214580 (OP)
disgusted by the fact that shitty sonic games sell so well

>>713241309
All I did was make my post based on the image. I'm genuinely wondering why so many third parties aren't announcing their ports.
Persona 4 Revival also didn't get a switch 2 port btw meanwhile all the others were confirmed.
It was pretty funny how many people expected the Xbox showcase to have a ton of Switch 2 port announcements but there was basically none.

>still complaining about denuvo
nigger just look up denuvo offline activation, sure it can be a bit crowded on the game launch day but wait a week later and you're good to go

Yakuza is cheap for them to make, that's why they're keep making it and it kept selling with sub-500K sales in Japan alone.
They make these games annually

>>713242340

>>713245217
You must be confused by my post if you're posting famitsu sale numbers.

>>713245298
Nope. Vengeance on Switch was the best selling version, so your whole triade makes completely no sense
>b-b-b-buh in 2035 it will sell more units on Steam sale at $2.99 than on eshop!
lmao

>>713219997
Yeah, game was like 130gig before the patch, new patch brought it down to 82gig

>>713245579
>Vengeance on Switch was the best selling
Source? Because the number on your famitsu sale isn't very consistent with the numbers on the list. The game on steam could very well be the best selling platform(at least for vengence)
>>b-b-b-buh in 2035 it will sell more units on Steam sale at $2.99 than on eshop!
Now you're just being disingenuous. I don't know how you can defend a number like 10k in a whole fiscal year when all the others sell consistently well in all the fiscal years.

>>713214580 (OP)
Don't ever tell me they can't make Valkyria Chronicles 5 with that kind of money

>>713246149
It's not that they can't it's that they don't WANT to

Holy shit at those flop Yakuza numbers

Also SMT V is a flop too

>>713246318
And Persona 3 Reload, that's a flop too!

Are they counting goypass downloads?

I just learned that crazy taxi, sonic cd, super monkey ball sakura and some other shit nobody cares about are free on the android play store.

>>713239613
Because changing things means your boss was wrong and that's very disrespectful.

>>713246806
No.

>>713214896
A lot of older Denuvo releases still keep it even after the games have had a DRM-free release elsewhere
Mad Max and Deus Ex Mankind Divided both still have Denuvo on the Steam version despite both also having an entirely DRM-free GOG release
