is that a yes?

[–] uberstar@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

Yep, I searched for "Safe Place" as was originally in your comment and found "Safe Space" seconds later, which I assumed what you were referring to

Perfect, this is exactly what I was looking for, ty!

same (In addition, I'm a foreigner). It was already bad, but it sure as hell is getting worse by the day. They also feel entitled to move around the world freely but at the same time talk about how immigrants are problematic, not "integrating into our culture properly" and chant shit like "Polska dla Polaków".

Good find, I had assumed people around here would at least have uBlock Origin with at least one Annoyances filter on (or similar), this is possible via Firefox mobile as well. I didn't get the prompt as well on desktop, probably because of the Annoyances filter that blocks the consent prompts anyway.

Here's an archived link, not sure if that helps: https://archive.is/qHSPD

I'm not sure I'm understanding this correctly, the prerequisite for a video game to be a "runaway success" is to do well sales-wise in the west? Why is the source of sales that important when the article mainly praises and discusses the game's launch figures, behind-the-scenes, the studio's lore, etc.... like any other video game articles do? The author isn't suggesting the sales are doing well in the west, so what warrants discussion of the games' sales in the west in the first place?

The article's headline alone says it's "One of the Fastest Selling Games In History". If we take the revenue value in the article to be true ($852 million in revenue in 2 weeks), then it beats Elden Ring by around a $100 million, give or take, in the first 2-week period (I'm assuming each copy costed 59.99$, so 12 million copies roughly translates to $720 million in revenue, since actual figures were never revealed, I think).

The article also states that it sold 10 million units in the first week, oh wait actually, that's 10 million in 3 days, beating other games that took at least a month to reach a similar milestone.

love how commenters around here haven't wasted any time to downplay the success and zeitgeist surrounding this game.
