Can you read nigga? Most sales are made digitally nowadays, especially on pc.
>>
>>344144394
maybe your game isn't as popular as you thought it was
>>
>>344143879
Breh, console digital downloads is everything from 30-60% of retail sales, and with some games it's everything from 50-90%. IIRC the origins edition is digital only on consoles but correct me here

Then you have the fact that it's been available for preorder months before launch, on consoles and PC

It easily did 7 million sales bruh
>>
>>344144459
>y-yeah surely the 6 million players that are missing from the count are all digital downloads

Even if we do the max estimation and count digital downloads being 100% of retail sales (doubling it),the total barely reachs 3 millions.

Yeah that's why every multiplat release always sells the least on PC.

I didn't meant to reply to you but I agree with your stance. I don't mind overwatch and its popularity itself, it's just fucking obnoxious when their fans come in and shit on battleborn even though they're two completely different games and therefore they're not trying to contend with each other. People overhype the negativity on it but the gameplay is alright. It's just that they tend to zoom in on minor bullshit like character voice lines or the UI.

Same boat. I don't mind Overwatch and the obnoxiously huge popularity and following behind it, infact I think it's a good thing that a new IP has become like that. But a month ago there was just 24/7 anti-battleborn/gearbox threads and it was the most annoying fucking topic to ever arise. Why do I think so?

because I bought colonial marines

It's only popular in asia, and that's because it's free there.

>>344148556
Nigga I fell for the colonial meme too and that's exactly what made me partake in those fucking threads. Like you I don't care about overwatch and its bigass popularity either even. I also didn't even give a shit about what happened with them and douk. But fuck me, Colonial Marines was a sign.

As I said, vgchartz, or any other tracking website out there, is behind. By the time they report 750k retail copies sold, it's already at 1 million

So if we assume 50% digital copies of that it's already at 1.5 million on ps4 alone at the very least, never mind that it's been available for digital and retail preorder for ages and that this game is inherently bigger on PC
