Just a reminder that there was a big "hate campaign" towards Hogwarts legacy before it came out (and even after it was released) and it didn't hurt sales whatsoever and people speak very fondly of that game.
The problem with the boycott was that all it did was keep publicising the game based on a franchise with huge nostalgia value. I bought a copy myself (and enjoyed it) despite serious issues with the author of the franchise. I would say the game was solid but hardly a classic and I don't see myself replaying it in a hurry.
I mean they don't need it. They have over 286 exclusives vs XBoxs 60 exclusives. So this is really just their turn to be on the other side of the fence, jist a little crazy how salty some of their fans are. Also, got to love that XBox sales are up 1056% on Amazon this month 😂😂😂
@@Now_Time_For_Scienceyou’re absolutely right. And it’s crazy…. Xbox fans didn’t act this way when ps got last of us, or GoW, or Resident Evil, or final fantasy(the list of bangers can go on and on)… says a lot about their fan base honestly. They can’t handle 1 Microsoft win and they blame Xbox for any L ps takes🤦🏾♂️ this is why we can’t stand them. Respectfully🤷🏾♂️
I expect we will see new DLC content coming out for years for Starfield. I think Bethesda can just keep adding to the game. Mounts and Ground Vehicles DLC - things to ride and drive in Starfield, including some creatures you can mind control. Need "garage" ship modules to store ground vehicles. Asteroids DLC - Introduce asteroid mining and base building in/on asteroids. New Star Clusters DLC(s) - New technology allows creation of wormholes/stargates/portals to stars out of reach of ship gravdrives. Once you are on the other side, you have a whole new star cluster to explore, because who wants to be stuck with only 1000 worlds. If the core game does not have sentient alien species, they could be introduced in a new star cluster. Small Ships DLC - for those who want space fighter craft. War! DLC - for those who aren't satisfied with the level of conflict in the core game. More story DLCs. And on and on...
Hey just curious I installed the game pass version and bought the 30$ premium edition upgrade and my base game is still only at 101gb anyone else or is it just me?
The only games that have really tempted me this year are Hogwarts Legacy, Baldur's Gate 3 and Starfield. Starfield is for sure, and HL and BG3 are probable purchases now that I have a new desktop PC with lots of SSD space. I think all of them will take GOTY. Doesn't every publication and gaming website have its own Game of the Year? As for best selling for the year, how do they calculate that? HL came out in February, BG3 in August and Starfield will come out in September. If it is purely units sold, HL has had a significant headstart on the other 2. I am hoping Starfield does well in both measures.
I am rooting for this game, but there is no way that this game breaks 16 million copies before the end of the year.valmost impossible without the playstation install base. I think it will pass 20m lifetime, but not for 3-4 years. And it will take many content updates to facilitate that.

It probably helped that some people bought 2 copies to piss off those haters
The people complaing weren't gamers though and the ones that were didn't amount to any significant numbers. It was a very loud minority

@@sofajockeyUKI’m glad I read this comment. I’ve been on the fence on buying hogwarts. Guess I can just wait for a price drop or sale.
Starfield GOTY
Baldur's Gate 3 "I will be Game of the Year"
Starfield... "Hold my Beer"
You just can't get it on Play Station...HEH HEH HEH!

And then it releases. All UA-camrs throw temper tantrums and cry like a toddler. Bethesda learned that you cannot please an A-hole 😂
Can’t wait to buy the GOTY in a couple years 💀
Okay, did you forget about Modern Warfare 3? Or Destiny 2 Final Shape. Those will both sell a ton
You spelt *the best selling game of the next 10 years, wrong 😂
Yeah this is definitely going to be the new Skyrim. Well it’s more so fallout in space but regardless. Gonna be great.
You got a new sub sir!

It stands a good chance

Baldur's Gate III...GOTY
Not in this, or any other world. Crpgs Don't really win GOTY awards. Except for BAFTA in 2002. LOL
leaks aren't looking good but i love Bethesda so im ok with what i saw
Uhm, leaks are looking great.
@@Tuningforks85 not the leak I was talking about. Just wait and see 😊
