Hey, some people like to be punished.

To each their own ;)

This game is going to bomb hard.

Eonjay133d ago

I don't know how much they would have to sell to break even but I imagine that its not that much. I doubt it will bomb given the current level of interest in Stellar Blade.

Rynxie133d ago

I'm sure it will sell to the 10 thirsty n4g fans, but it won't sell to the masses. Bayonetta doesn't sell that much and this is a smaller, less known studio.

Eonjay133d ago

Just looking at the current preorder charts on PlayStation its number 10 with over a month to go. While it might not sell millions upon millions, it won't equate to a bomb. I don't think anyone reasonably expects it to be top seller of the year, but thats far from a bomb.

RpgSama133d ago

This is a small studio, surely the budget is very contained and the game has had a lot of exposure by Sony, unless it reviews terribly I think it will do at least well enough for us to see more of this developer.

If you stop judging the game for the fan service for a second, actually the gameplay they've been showing looks quite good, i'm pretty sure it's going to do well, not 10 million units well but at least break even or make a good profit easily.

"hidden nerf" when it's right there in the description.

That impossible to say without knowing each companies individual expectations. For example Arrowhead clearly had a set expectation for Helldivers 2 but the results were far beyond their expectations. Another exclusive for KT (Rise of the Ronin) became their best seller of all time. Was this their expectations? Who knows but I doubt it.

Stellar Blade did very well for a new IP that happened to be exclusive. Did i expect it to do this well? Not sure but what's more important is Shift Up's expectations.

Every game is different. I definitely recommend Stellar Blade.
