102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 liar, this is literally impossible. It reviewed terribly, has awful word of mouth, squeaked out to 8k sales in the U.K, and now isn't even in the top 25 most played games on Xbox (a console where there's barely any games to compete with it anyways). This game was forgotten like a fart in the wind. Absolutely a franchise ending flop of epic proportion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,614 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 And it's a higher meta than death stranding lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,230 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Why wouldn't it? The Xbox One userbase is slightly bigger now than it was back in 2016. And back then, lemmings had other Xbox games releasing within the same year.........two whole games. The competition was off-the-charts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,899 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 lemmings have less and less to choose from as time goes on because of how limited their options are, of course they would gobble up any exclusives they can get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,555 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Yeah gonna need receipts pls. MS' definition of such obvious words isn't what it use to be. Going by NPD and actual tracking charts it has consistently tracked below Gears 4 in NPD, PAL Charts and so on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its easier to rehash another entry in a long running shooter franchise then it is to create a completely new experience. Also, we primarily use gamespot and Death Stranding outscored it there so you still lose Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, I made that thread and did my fair share of DS bashing, but after playing it I have seen the light. Gears isn't even in the same league Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,614 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Except at meta, where it is in a higher league Quote Link to post Share on other sites
