I really wish we could stop talking about concurrent players when talking about single player games, it's a weak (and mostly meaningless) metric.
But also this game felt like it got no marketing, and I don't think Ratchet and Clank is as well known as Uncharted or The Last of Us, so just on name recognition it was never going to pull the same numbers. Hopefully Sony doesn't stop the PC ports, because I'm loving the fact these games are finally on PC.
Feel like I've seen 10 articles about the subject on lemmy.
They're getting upset about a female version of the main character from a different universe? That's like the main alternative universe trope
Right!
I remember seeing articles when the concurrent player base for Hogwarts drop down. Like no duh. It's a single player game with a finite number of quests. The concurrent player metric only matters when it's an online game and you need multiple people to play with.
