Let me make it worse. With data/evidence. 400 mil, and they made 120,000$. That's *it.* They say 25k units moved. But that's to retail. Only 3,000 copies sold. Max steam player count: 750. (Doubled, for 1,500) 98% of ps players had the first trophy. 1,400 players had it. Round up, that's 3,000 copies sold. At 40$ each, that's 120k. For 400 million. (Yt has deleted every reply i've made to the guy below me. These are numbers from steam and playstation, and you can check for yourself.)

A lot of those from Sony are definitely gonna increase price now. Expansions for games that would usually cost little is gonna be doubled or even tripled their price. I think Sony should go towards the “old” route. Bring back some of the older games that we all loved. Ratchet & Clank, guitar hero, rock band, destroy all humans, sly cooper, tomb raider, etc. so many people my age would jump on a lot of those. Everything by Sony is gonna jump in price. Not looking forward to it.

There's no way it was $400 hundred million. Unless Sony comes out and gives the figures, i refuse to believe it. The character models looked bad, the particle effects were nothing spectacular, and the HUD looked really bad. It wasn't like they marketed it too much. I only saw one trailer and that was the game awards. To put it in perspective, GTA 5 had a budget of $265 million. Cyberpunk was $316 million, Red Dead Redeption 2 was $540 million.

$400 million not including the amount Sony paid for the studio, they likely spent an additional $200 to $500 million. This at bare minimum cost Sony 8 years and over a half a billion dollars and they lost 100% of it. PS5's $700 price makes more sense now, was planned at $599.99, then raised to $699.99 to add the Concord tax! Sony won't eat that loss they'll charge their loyal customers extra to get it back.

You know. there's 2 games I wanna see. desperately. 1. Bulletstorm. specifically a sequel to it. They rereleased the full clip edition some years back to see if there was still interest enough to make a sequel. apparently there was cuz short time later they released the Duke Nuke Em edition where the main character's voice was replaced with Duke Nuke Em. also here in the last year they've released a VR version of the original game. Apparently there's interest so...where the hell is my sequel? 2. Deus Ex. I don't know...maybe the numbers weren't there but I wanna see a 3rd and final chapter to the Adam Jensen arc introduced in Human Revolution and Mankind Divided.
