Those are self-reported numbers by the publishers. Ubisoft has been caught publishing "players" as the generic metric where they happened to include the amount of people who watched the trailer on the PSN each as "players".

It's fake. Game flopped.

If the company isn't shouting the sales from the rooftops, you can safely assume that it's not a number that they're proud of.

Also, the more time that goes on with nothing being said, the more you should suspect any numbers that they give. Maybe they will sell 10m... counting bundles, DEEP discounts, and giveaways.

>steam charts are pointless
>nobody plays steam
does it ever get tiresome trying to pretend steam is a nonfactor in gaming while also literally shitting yourself in steam monopoly threads because it's got a stranglehold on PC gaming with games not released on it having next to no chance of even breaking even? I wonder how you people convince yourselves that sales on the platform don't matter while simultaneously crying that it's the only PC platform where sales matter.

I never said steam charts are video game talk, I said they're a better alternative to all the other non video game topics I mentioned make up 99% of the board. I don't even know why I'm explaining this to you when I know you're still too stupid to understand or at best you will realize you're an idiot but instead double down out of childish spite. don't bother replying dummy.

YASSSSSuke adds nothing to the game. NOTHING. He's the Templar connection (Templars were slave trading him) in the game.

Naoe is on a revenge story because the Shin Bakufu killed her father in the game, leaving her parentless. She's the Assassin's connection since her mother (who may or may not [implied by Ubisoft, DLC will probably lean this way] be dead) is gone, who started the Japanese Assassin's branch (despite contridicting Ass Creed: China 2.5D's game).

That's it. There is NOTHING meta-plot or Assassin's vs Templar's war-wise in the game.

There isn't even a Piece of Eden. You chase the three Japanese treasures nobody has laid eyes on and that's it.

Even their AMA has thrown hands up on doing anything ASSASSIN'S CREED wise in their ASSASSIN'S CREED: https://www.reddit.com/r/assassinscreed/comments/1mo3rmj/hi_were_simon_andr%C3%A9_and_luc_developers_on/

>The Assassins vs. Templars conflict has always been a core pillar of Assassin's Creed. With Shadows, we wanted to properly set our protagonist in the setting before expanding on the Assassins vs. Templars. Now that it's done on the main game, we scratched the surface with the Critical Role story drop, and you can expect more deep dive in this conflict in the near future.

It's never been more over for their "in case of emergency; break weeb" game than it is now.

I don't get why that's bad. the more convoluted they make the plot the less I care. I played odyssey and I pretty much ignored all the isu crap and pretty much skipped any cutscene that had to do with the animus. I think a more straightforward plot that calls back to the classic assassin vs templar war is better

I'm torn on Yasuke's gameplay, combat is fun as a samurai power fantasy, but it feels mindless because he's too OP for enemies to present a genuine threat even in higher difficulties, and his parkour is shit. Naoe, though? She has unironically the best stealth gameplay in the series so far, even it's still the limited RPG AssCreed parkour, I was genuinely impressed by how the level design of the castles and fortresses allows for multiple approaches with the tools, the lighting system and shit, I hope this becomes the standard for AssCreed stealth in the future games.

It would have been better than Ghost of Tsushima for me if it didn't have the Nigger, and you could customize Naoe. But because it didn't, it's about at the same level, which is a 6/10...

I still play it every now and then, but I haven't been motivated to finish it because the modding scene isn't where it needs to be. Same with Ghost of Tsushi, i beat it on ps4, ps5, and I bought it on PC, but there's no mods, therefore I can't be motivated to put 200+ hours in it again.

it's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but the Sengoku era is pretty well-covered for a generic revenge story to make a splash. Like it or not, the secret history Assassin/Templar conflict IS a unique draw the series has. And especially considering it's coming pretty closely on the heels of two other open world Japan games where you play a sneaky assassin

companies like NPD used to literally call up stores and asked them how many copies of a game they sold. but publishers usually don't play ball because legit detailed sales figures(X in Y weeks, on what platform, what country/region etc.) are confidential and market research firms are paying hundreds of thousands for that kind of information so they can use it in their consultancy presentations.
