Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.

Funny how all the clickhate was trying to spin that it was "struggling" to reach these very numbers.

Jin_Sakai46d ago

They have less than 1 million players but some people are playing 4 hours a day. That’s your record engagement.

😢 😭 people are playing a game I hate and having fun. Why aren't they hating the game as much as I do?

GamerRN47d ago

It's an absolutely terrible game....

boing147d ago

I don't believe it one bit. Second highest to what? Any numbers?

ChasterMies46d ago

“Ubisoft announced that ‘Skull and Bones’ boasts over four hours of average daily playtime.”

So the few people playing it are spending a lot of time playing it. But there aren’t enough whales to feed this fleet. This game will die like so many other live service money grabs that came before it.

This includes free trials.

shinoff218347d ago

I've read that same thing. Ifbtruebits not really impressive. Also maybe I missed it but I didn't catch any numbers in the article. Lastly what I did read felt more like an advertisement as if the site mightve caught a couple dollars from the publisher.

anast46d ago (Edited 46d ago )

People are saying it's around 850k across all platforms and free trials. To put it into perspective Helldivers 2 has around 360k 24hr peak on Steam and another 300k at least on PS5, and no free trials.

Most likely. I tried the demo on PS5 and it looks so blurry I was shocked, crappy graphics. I thought for a minute I was playing the wrong version (PS4) but then again most games on PS4 look a 1000x better than this not to mention it's a grinding galore. F that.
