Where's the renegade interrupt to punch anyone who starts a diatribe like that in the face?

Actually, that wouldn't be appropriate. What the game really needs is Dark Urge-style reactions to companions doing retarded shit.

Name recognition alone will carry it, DAI sold over 12 million. What would be considered a flop for this? 1 Million in the first 24 hours and 3 million in the first month? Anything under that would start making concord/dustborn headlines?

I really can't see it performing that low with low-information buyers who just need their triple-A fix.

Happy to be proven wrong though.

I have always been firmly in the "you leave me alone and I'll leave you alone" camp. If that's an actual scene in the game and not some AI dumbfuckery, this game is permanently in my leave it alone, even if it's free, list. I don't want anything to do with the minds who wrote that shit and thought it was good.

It may sell but the damage to the franchise is done. I can't wait for the next Mass Effect game though! (that's sarcasm for the midwits)

Dragons Dogma 2 only sold 3 million and that looked way better than this with none of the woke bullshit.

I can't see this breaking a million. With fextra shitting on it even the dumb 12 year olds won't buy it.

Anthem and Andromeda sold ~5 milion according to Google

EA's own investor forecast for Anthem lifetime sales was 6m, so while it underperformed, that's not really a flop when you consider it made more in microtransactions than sales.

Andromeda just about broke even with a budget of $100m and $110 in revenue in it's first quarter, so also not a flop.

I wasn't prepared for that cringe. and this is what really moves it from retarded, to actually offensive.

All the responses being, "you go girl!" "YASSSSS!", "right on!"

I vastly prefer the DA2 version. Actually looks like a real chick.

It's also based off your watch history, I watched one video on how to repair my dryer and that's all my feed was. Their algorithm sucks! I often go into my watch history after watching a video and delete it so it doesn't affect what I get on my home page.

Yeah, so my (socially conservative) mom clicks a couple of MSNBC news clips and almost right away they're spiraling her down the rabbit hole of all kinds of far-left clickbait. Her being very elderly, she starts thinking that what she's seeing is all of YouTube, or the most popular videos, etc.

Tells me the polls show Biden in the lead back in April, when he was very much not in the lead, then I see her YouTube front page and the entire thing is "BIDEN IN COMMANDING LEAD" (because Quinnipiac showed him at +3 while every other poll in the aggregate had him behind).

Actually these algorithms probably explain why people are so divided politically. Their social media / YouTube/ whatever seizes on any slight lean in either direction, then floods the person with one-sided information, to the point that when they hear a perspective from the other side it may as well be from another planet because they won't know what the person is talking about. "Nordstream pipeline? What are you talking about, all the news lately has been about the Don't Say Gay bill"

Listened to a news story about gayguard on npr just now and 90% of the interview was the producers talking about their mental illnesses and how they added those mental illnesses into the game. Just listening to the tranny talk made my skin crawl.

Lmao it’s hard to imagine some of you are actually going to pay money for this shit.

now imagine the forums collective skin crawling with the reading of each of your posts.
