they specifically said 680m is EpicStore total and 251 is ThirdParty revenute generate (aka total) .... so 3rd party stuff is pretty much everything else than Fortnite

The game launched on four platforms. Rolling Eyes


Are these snarky dismissive responses supposed to be taken seriously as an argument? Okay, let's do the match and take a look at actual facts and state of things.

Release dates:
Windows, macOS, Switch: 20 September 2019
[i]PlayStation 4, Xbox One: 17 December 2019
(3 months later)[/i]
News about 1 mil posted: Dec 30 2019 (barely 2 weeks later)

We know that within first two weeks after the release UGG sold 100k:
https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/352323/Untitled_Goose_Game_passed_100000_sales_in_first_two_weeks.php

We don't know exact ratio between platforms, but taking into account the facts that EGS is the only PC store that offered the game and that Switch sales for indie games easily dominate Steam (and just all PC sales for the taken game in comparison) we can conclude it is at least ~60% for Swatch and 40% for EGS (at best, at worst 50$/50%).
Now, even if we assume it sold about 100-200k on PS4/Xbox in 2 weeks (doubtful but whatever), that still leaves us about 800k over 3 months for Switch/PC. So that's like 8 times more in total since first 2 weeks. That makes it at least ~300-400k for just EGS.

Putting it against 151k approximated - that is still ~3-3.5 times lower. Even Steamspy has lower error margin and they are no wild-guessing. So yes, their "approximation" is full of bull randomly pulled out of their ass.

Not liking EGS does not mean you have to seethe this hard

The level of match here. Steamspy is doing mostly guesswork, like your post.

Well, they did correct your wrong outlook that UGG sold 1 million copies on EGS. So, I would say mission accomplished.

No, no way Fortnite to have made only 400$ million. They reported 2.4$ Billion from Fortnite alone for 2018. It could be the Unreal Engine Marketplace as it's now within EGS but I find it unlikely that devs will pay more than gamers even tho some items cost more than 100 euro.

I take that but it wasnt the point by a long shot though, the point was that this empty, pointless seething and imposed cheering "lol EGS ded lmao" with an attempt to move goalposts and twist the stats and numbers in a way that they would back up the pushed narrative of EGS dying is just downright pathetic. EGS doing just fine (as much as I dont like it) and you are only fooling yourself by pretending it isnt.

Never implied that, the point mostly was to have some caricature about Steam fanboys acting the way I described above.

I'm not the one who spins every official stat and deceiving statement in my favor. I'm not trying to make money from EGS. See if you can figure out who does this.

Y'all realize these are just PC stats, and forknife is available on all platforms including mobile, right? Epic is most likely rolling in billions by this point. Laughing
Anyway, pretty good stats so far, and the store is slowly improving, so hopefully by this time next year your complaints will have been resolved entirely and we can put the whole thing behind us? Rolling Eyes

It just a usual pathetic cope coming form desperate diehard Steam fanboys who love fat Gabe's cock so much they are happy to delude themselves into genuine belief that EGS is dying when, it fact, it does spectacularly well for a new digital PC storefront. History be the witness here - in the past 5/6+ years quite a few tried to enter this scene but eventually all of them failed.

I despise EGS and their practices but deluding himself into believing they are losing money and will close literally in the next few months is a sure way to lose your ground and an argument. Getting complacent because of fake believes is what Timmy wants from you. Instead, steam fanbois should keep rallying the troops.

Just because people can do simple math and just because people despise EGS for their practices and obvious bullshit, doesn't mean they think EGS is dying. But whatever, do your usual and take only what suits you from the discussion.

Shenmue III somehow still has it and at 37%. They probably didn't see it yet to remove it. Laughing

Shenmue has a critic average score of 68%. Why are they using the 37% figure?

I swear when I checked it earlier it was at 37%. Now it's 68%...

It looks like 37 is the "Critics Recommend" and 68 is the "Top Critic Average". They changed it to the higher number of course. Laughing

Math != making up numbers to push your personal agenda. Few years from nopw onw when EGS for some reason simply wont die and in fact will get bigger I will be laughing last and you keep spewing out "it is gonna die soon" lole while posting some stretched numbers that have nothing to do with real state of things.

i checked 20+ random games off the store page and only 2 of them had it hidden. What are tjhese shitty devs you are talking about? Some god forgotten indies at the very bottom of the store?

Can you explain how people made up numbers? Or are you talking about yourself saying the 1 million copies sold by UGG were on EGS? I never spew "it is gonna die soon" (neither did others), but you keep up with this rhetoric because it fits your argument.

Of course, they wouldn't activate that for a failures like Breakpoint. What a great selective feature to prey on the uninformed customers...
