Marketing doesn’t guarantee 5 million sales. Just look at Marathon. Insane marketing push for a game made by a beloved studio sold only 1.2 million units. And the marketing was excellent, clearly better than the game itself. This is a piece of art.
Well, Marathon is a supremely bad example as Bungie has been doing everything they can to make the people who have supported them throughout Destiny hate them. Pearl Abyss might have scummy mtx but they’re honest about it and ultimately make a pretty good game. For Korean devs. Who develop games for Koreans. Who are born with a third invisible spirit arm that they use for extra inputs.
