Something I did see pointed out with this remake is that since it has the fantastic suite of accessibility options it should open up the game to a whole new audience of players who might have struggled with the PS4 release, which is a nice bonus at least.
Sony knows what theyâre doing with the $70 pricing. They know people will be annoyed about this game being remade despite a perfectly fine remaster already playable on PS5. I bet they know the sales potential for this is well below TLoU2 and they figure theyâll milk the $70 out of the fools dumb enough to buy in at launch to make as much as they can before they kick it to the PC.
Doesnât matter. People will buy it again.
TLOU1 will sell well, but primarily driven by PC where it is new.
And ps3+ps4 bundles which helps to inflate those numbers.
They didnt really touch gameplay as it was presumed some weeks ago.
Absolutely, but if youâre trying to gauge numbers off unique consumers your base isnt that full figure (20 million), its something less. But now that theyâve expanded to PC they have a substantial previously untapped market to reach.

I mean weâve gotten Gears 5 on Gameapss day 1âŚthat game looks incredible on a Series X. Probably the best looking 1st party Xbox game or up there with Forza and easily up there with anything on PS5.
Which makes it more baffling how this isnât a day 1 PC drop. But they got to milk those PS users first I guess. For PCâŚyeah absolutely worth it for a lot of new players.
Oh, it isnât? Haha wtf
Iâm 100% sure that the reason Uncharted 4 hasnt released yet on PC and TLOU R is not launching day one 1 on the platform (though I believe the later will really release shortly after the console version) is because the are still optimizing their engine to PC.
EDIT: Forgot to add that I have no proof but neither doubt!!
Iâm simply going based on how many consoles have been sold which is over 20m. I do believe a lot of people will buy it despite already playing it and that a lot of people who havenât played it will buy it. I also look at August/September/October and thereâs nothing there thatâs even close to the level of TLOU and if it gets high scores (90+) which it most likely will outside of the few sites that always go against the majority, that will lead to more people buying it. Weâll see what it does.
Forgot all about the PC version but thatâs later on sometime.
O.o did another game just beat DL 2 as you current GOTY Peter?!
Itâs currently Dying Light 2 right now with HFW right behind it but im expecting it to be GOWR once I play and complete the 7 games I have left for the year.
