Still considerably higher than I would have thought. Orders of magnitude more players than some of the other huge flops lately.
I guess F2P makes the difference between 100k peak players and a whopping 600.
When there’s no initial cost you can get a high trial phase
25GB download and an intrusive DRM are IMHO an initial cost of sorts.
Depending on your internet connection 25GB isn't really much of a hurdle anymore. And to the DRM, most people don't give a damn about keeping their PC bloat free for some reason.
I think it's also the previous flops that made this one have so many people
They all missed out on seeing concord, don't wanna miss concord 2
