The game itself is woke. Yet with the way that trannies are behaving you'd think that it was some nazi game or something .

Reposting what I said elsewhere:
They just randomly humilated themselves in front of every corpo (that isn't actively bought off), normie, and Harry Potter fan on the planet. Let them.
This is definitely the most retarded take of the situation. Let me help you with what really happened, Troons screamed not good enough and morons like you are now lapping up woke diversity with glee because the fringe left is never satisfied. The left is shifting the Overton window right in front of you and you’re clapping like.a seal and calling it a victory…
Yes. And that is going to be what those normies and corporates are going to take away from this. That it's okay -- no, richly rewarded -- to ignore whatever they're screaming about (and the ones that actually followed the game will know the woke elements got the devs nothing but an attempted boycott). The first time is always the hardest. It only gets easier and easier.
This is blind ignorance. You can’t say you won by eating a woke pile of shit and going maybe the next bowl won’t be as woke! I’m assuming you have to be fairly young as we had seen the same ploy with gay relationships in games a decade ago where the fags/ journos blew up Twitter calling it not good enough and the companies pandered harder, not less. You calling a game with fags, troons, and not being able to play a Scottish person in 1890s Scotland a win is cognitive dissonance on an unprecedented scale.
I mean, keep mocking your friends. That helps. And absolutely don't use our enemies' very public unforced humiliation against them. Let them turn the sales records into ACKSHUALLY them owning the chuds because glorious trans wizard utopia and also all of their boycott shit has been memory holed. Because it's done. The sales records are set, no matter how salty you want to be about it.
This isn't like 2012, where media was still seen as somewhat trustworthy, and gentle articles were coming out about how "we all need to do better." This was a full-blown, spittle flecked, psychotic public meltdown.
(Your guy is English, by the way, and can be white. Genuinely not sure where this "can't be Scottish" thing is coming from.)
No it didn't. It set one record in the United Femdom in the long dead medium of physical sales and every pro-feminist outlet clickbaited it.
Sales are already down over 60% even in physical copies, because it's shit and only feminist true believers who support Rowling and her pro-murderer cause are buying it. Conveniently, that part isn't so widely reported, and is reported with such copium that "it's still #1" like beating yet another Fortnite skin bundle and the 10 year old Dead Space is an achievement.
Seriously, I checked a UK game store online - Hogwarts is above Elden Ring, which is over a year old, so not even close to new and most people who want it already have it. Then the next item is a kids game based off those weird dolls, then a huge list of old games, including Forza Horizon 5 and the latest FIFA (because if you don't have it by now, you're never going to buy it).
It's not a best seller, it was an overly hyped piece of junk that people got conned into buying by political controversy. It had one good week of sad fantasists buying it and benefited greatly from the lack of other titles to compete.
Atomic Heart will pass it in the sales chart this week on the Microsoft Store, providing it doesn't turn out to be utter shit - unless Game Pass availability hurts sales a lot.
Wait... so it sold more physical copies than any other game in UK history, despite physical copies being dead? In the UK, they sold more irrelevant dead versions of HL than total sales of, say, GTA Vice City or Kingdom Hearts? Then it went on to become the most concurrently viewed game in Twitch history, as well as the number one AND number two game on Steam for the week ending yesterday (up from #2 and #4 last week, so I am not sure where you're getting your numbers). Sorry, dude, but it's absolutely fair to say that it set records, and to enjoy the abject humiliation.
edit: the game examples, since I went too far back.
Well, she is literally from there and the UK is known as TERF Island for a reason. That's not what the record is - it's most sales in the first week, not longevity or total sales. Sales numbers are already falling, which is definitely good news. The previous holder was already a Harry Potter game, from a shitty movie tie-in, so it shows the taste in games UK people have.
I wouldn't say you can extrapolate what happened there to say it's a success - digital sales could have been poor, #1 with zero competition is not that impressive, as much as they like to pretend. Steam charts will only be relevant when something else of note launches, otherwise the only true competition is the various PC long-term chart holders like Euro Truck Simulator and other overrated garbage.
I want you to know I'm not downvoting you.
So it had a better first week in irrelevant dead media than GTA San Andreas or Warcraft 3 had in their entire first weeks. It's still fair to say it's setting records.
Again, it's now #1 and #2 on Steam after weeks of sitting in the top 5. I'm not sure where you're getting your numbers, since they won't release hard sales numbers for some time.
Fine, it's the best-selling game in UK history, the most-viewed game of all time on Twitch, and is sitting at number 1 AND number 2 on Steam for the week ending February 19th (up from #2 and #4). This is despite every click bait rag attempting to cancel it.
a) sure, that would be fine with me, b) that's a weird qualifier. Why not Steam?
Not really an achievement, the last one was also a complete women's shitpiece.
It probably isn't when accounting for digital sales, I'd guess the actual answer to that question is a FIFA title from whatever year it sold the most. That game is practically a religion in England, most young people wouldn't want to know you if you didn't play it.
Anything could become popular when every eSport is on off-season and there's no new games to gain hype.
Nobody is trying to cancel it. If anything, mainstream media are helping it.
All the ragebait is just marketing to help her. They know exactly what they're doing.
Because I don't use it or care about it. PC players buy some utter crap, remember when they all jerked off to The Witcher, and then Cyberpunk 2077's broken release?
Also because console platforms don't have third party storefronts that can skew the results, like the Epic Store or Origin.
Sure, and nothing ever has become this popular. What a coincidence.
Bullshit.
True.
Do they? Do they know that they are throwing some of their most zealous stormtroopers -- ones that have now pushed thousands of men and boys into castration -- under the bus?
I see, but I think it's considerably more popular than the Microsoft store.
Do you just hate open world adventures or something?
Got roasted on launch, to the point that it was seen as a sales disappointment.
I guess. As sketchy as Epic is, and as sketchy as the others have the potential to become, I still think it's better to have some kind of competition rather than a megacorporate enforced monopoly.
