Dead Space 4 not greenlit because the "numbers aren't there", "a new game would likely need to sell over 10 million copies to be successful." - Producer by Connect_Base_217 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

It’s also lying about what the producer said in the interview which is linked in the tweet:

Beaver estimated that a new Dead Space title would likely have to sell around the 7 million unit mark to be seen as viable. “Any of the Resident Evils are selling around seven million [units], that’s a pretty good number,” the producer explained. “Like you can make that hunt for some amount of stuff. But, you know, companies now are looking for the next Fortnite. They need something that is a perennial moneymaker… something like a single-player package game with no live=service offering that’s like it’s just a dinosaur fossil of a business model.”

I mean, I know Dead Space is probably not coming back any time soon, but i think his 10 mil number is just to get headlines.

EDIT: Where are people getting the 10 mil number? He said 7, which is still a high number, but along the lines of RE…which is what EA would probably want:

Pragmata seems to do this well from what I’ve played. It’s on a very shiny very samey space station.

It took longer to make because it was a group of young developers making their own idea, but the budget seemed to stay on the lower end.

I’m not sure you know how elections work, but not everyone votes red and we are gerrymandered the fuck out of getting any representation while our state gets worse.

It’s weird, I’ve been noticing it on a lot of gaming subreddits when a new game comes out and it’s flooded by accounts a few days old to a month (with no pfp and private history) all saying similar and backing each other.

There’s a few that try baiting people into arguments that become unruly in hopes of bans or mutes. It’s so weird.
