They've made 10 million USD in a couple of minutes

>>719811517 (OP)
And the game is evergreen, so they'll be making millions for years.

aren't they already rich from hollow knight?

They spent 8 years making this, still didn't break even

>>719811517 (OP)
who? what? videoames nigga? this is a post even /b/ would be embarrassed to have

>>719811589
>>719811683
Yes. Good for them.

>>719811715
Idk I forgot

You mean they made 10,000,000, from 8 years of labor, divided between 3 people, and costs.

>>719811517 (OP)
Gamedev sounds scary, I don't think I'd be able to handle that amount of success

>>719811697
Even if expenses were in excess of 10,000 USD a month, and even if you divide the profit between all 3 of them, theyre way above their budget.

>>719811697
>3-5 guys
Regardless of how their company is structured, all of those guys are loaded.

>>719811517 (OP)
Palworld made that in seconds.

>>719811951
Yeah the team is 3 people IIRC, it's not large enough for them not to have already turned a profit.

>>719811517 (OP)
And all the loser indiedev fags on /v/ will be lucky if their indie slop sells a 1000 copies if they ever even finish their shitty game.

They are also getting extra money from people buying the soundtrack which is only $3 cheaper than Hollow Knight when it isn't at a 50% discount. Even the soundtrack is in topsellers just behind Borderlands 4 right now.

>Indie Game makes 10 million
>AHAHAHAH COPE AND SEETHE
why are you like this?

>>719811697
What the actual fuck are you talking about LOL. Where is your math on this even with retarded /v/ guestimations. This game was a wild success and these dudes are rich as fuck

>>719812462
Because no one likes, cares about, or respects gambling as a trade. 3 people making a real game and being successful is a nice feeling for the audience. A gay digital mobster strong arming autistic nerds isn't cool or inspiring, it's just pathetic and gay and faggoty and lame.

>>719811517 (OP)
>go woke go br-ACKK

Good for them. A good product for a good price should not cause the market to vibrate with joy, but here we are, in a world where companies, instead of making good games, instead shit on plates and shame their audience and pay off shills to also shame their audience for not liking said shit pile.

>>719812593
lol
Being popular with the normies isn't something to be proud either

>>719811806
in a couple of minutes, retard

>>719812739
Yeah it is, if you weren't a gay weeb you'd understand that

>>719811517 (OP)
30% steam tax and 50% Australia commie tax so they only made 3.5mil kwab

>indieshit
not playing

>>719812593
Gambling is based because it separates stupid people from their money. It's sort of a corrective to the evils of economic redistribution.

>>719812794
They deserve acknowledgement for the hard work they did. They didn't shit this out. It took them time.

>>719811517 (OP)
>make game without woke shit
>game sells
Shocker

>>719811697
they were making even from the continuous sales of hollow knight nigga

>>719812902
3.5 million more than you btw

That makes it not woke

>>719813354
shes literally black

>>719813403
Me too.

>>719813278
Yeah? I think 3.5 million/10 years is pretty good

>>719813990
10,000,000 over 8 years even if they don't make another dime ever is still around 100 grand a month. No way were their expenses anywhere near that. They also has sales from HK that entire time.

If 3 white males can make something this successful then why don't AAA companies fill their dev teams with white males? Imagine the profits!

>>719814656

the result of creating SOVL

>>719811589
what does that mean?

>>719817757
google it you mongoloid

They sold 5 millions of copies already because Wukong and Palworld had 2mi concurrent players and sold more than 20 millions so 500k concurrent players is already that.

Anyone who says trannies don't spend money is fooling themselves

>>719817757
Cyberpunk, GTa, The Witcher 3. Games that keep seeling well even after years of the release

Why do manchildren feel personal-happiness and accomplishment in the profits of Corporations and Entertainment products they didn't make? It's really fucking weird.

>>719811951
>Regardless of how their company is structured, all of those guys are loaded.
They just get a portion of that for no reason? Do they just automatically get stock in that private company? You sound like some retarded voice actor who thinks working for 4 hours makes you entitled to royalties for each sale.

>>719818026
>why do people feel good when things they enjoy do well?

isn't one of the devs a shitskin?

30% of that goes to steam
30% to the publisher
and 41%

>>719818026
Because that means hollow knight 2 in 10 years

>>719811517 (OP)

>Skong seether is an ESL
Every fucking time, I tell you.

>>719811517 (OP)
minus steam cut minus local tax minus US tax minus DEI, minority and immigrant support fees so they made like... maybe 1-2 millions in what? 7 years? That's pennies

>brown third world people think you actually pay taxes
....KEK

>>719811517 (OP)
hollow knight sold 15 million copies even if silksong didnt sell a singular copy they would still be rich and set for life on hollow knight alone

>>719811517 (OP)
Really unfair they should give some of that money to the needy and unfortunate, share the wealth for the better of society.

>>719811517 (OP)
We can do the same guys, let's just all come up with a videogame and we all get our fare share.
We have the manpower so it won't take us even 3 years

>>719811517 (OP)
Erm, it's actually NOT successful actually? Don't ask me for details you just KNOW.

Post dismissed, go hang yourself

>>719818149
Are you actually mentally handicapped? The people who are making the game by hand OWN the fucking company, every cent is going straight to the bank account.

>>719818805
There's already AAA metroidvanias

You start off with it since you get it in the first game.

I bet you think that Google's employees all share in the total company profits too?

>corporations
It's a team of 3 people.
>>719818149
It is literally an indie dev studio made up of 3 people, there's no fucking stock to own you moron. This is like asking if an artisan tailor or a chef that owns his own restaurant doesn't keep their money.

>>719818026

So which bank account does the money go into you fucking moron? Do you think they told steam "hey we're three founders, so just split the money between us!"
