Nicely, I’m glad to say that my earlier bit of stories, the place I speculated the sport’s gross sales have been already seemingly within the thousands and thousands, has confirmed to be fairly spot-on. Sure, I’m tooting my very own horn right here. But in addition, I’m tooting Crimson Desert‘s horn as a result of rattling, these are some sturdy figures.
In response to developer and writer Pear Abyss, Crimson Desert has already bought 2+ million copies, after only a day of being on sale.
Additionally they promise to “work to make enhancements rapidly” which might be a good suggestion as a result of the sport’s present Steam score is combined, and one of many largest causes for that appears to be the bizarre management scheme. Nonetheless, a management scheme repair will seemingly take a while.
There’s additionally a difficulty with the truth that the sport doesn’t assist Intel GPUs, one thing which apparently was not introduced previous to launch. Whereas it solely impacts a reasonably small portion of the market, it was totally baffling to not clearly record Intel GPUs as not being supported properly earlier than launch.
The opposite elephant within the room is whether or not the sturdy gross sales numbers will assist the corporate’s inventory value bounce again up after it took a 30% drop following the preliminary opinions, which have been really fairly good, however clearly didn’t match as much as the insane hype the sport was getting previous to launch.
