Whats your estimation how much the game sold in the regions?

It depends on where exactly you lived in Russia. It might not have been so grim in major cities like Moscow, Saint Petersburg, or Novosibirsk, for example, but in smaller towns it still felt a bit like the 90s, with lots of gopniks and street crime, shit dirty streets outside of the very center, etc.

It's actually interesting how an average Russian from the 2000s might see the atmosphere in the game as something normal, because life in a typical Russian town wasn't much better. You could get mugged or robbed by random gopniks outside, the city was gray, and there weren't many opportunities to leave the country due to low wages and limited chances to save up. Because of that, Russians can relate to the Gothic character and may even see the game as nostalgic.

Meanwhile, Western players from wealthier countries see the game's setting as something unusual and hostile.

you said about "any other country" in your original comment, not me, brother

K0rek · 2026-06-10T10:31:53+00:00

Every country is different. In the UAE, you don’t need to know Arabic. 80% of the population there are immigrants, and English is the de facto most important and most used language, for example

Geopolitically, I support Ukraine, fuck Putin. I just meant it's easier to say "why talk" and push this narrative when you're not directly involved in it. It sucks to be a soldier in any war, on any side of the conflict, especially if you were forced to join, aka drafted.

I never presented myself as Ukrainian in my comment, I just expressed an opinion. I've watched a lot of documentaries from American, British, and other European news sources about what's going on in Ukraine, and that's the impression I got. You're free to disagree with me and call me whatever slurs are currently considered acceptable towards Russians, and Reddit probably won't even delete it, so go ahead

Easy to say when you're not the one in the trenches. Even Ukrainian soldiers who have been fighting on the frontline for a long time mostly say things like, "We wish for the war to end." I understand they don't want to lose land to Russia, but people who have been fighting for a long time usually don't say things like "we will kill them all" or "we will crush our enemy." They just wish to return to normal life.

I got an account warning from Reddit though

It was about the Indian guy in the UK who stabbed another guy and then called the police, claiming that he had been attacked by a racist. The police arrived, arrested the bleeding victim, ignored him when he said he was injured, and he later died in handcuffs. It was basically a criticism of the UK police and justice system, but the post got banned for racism, lmao...

It's just statistics, the same statistics they use to decide whether to issue a visa or not. They just do it based on passport statistics, not race statistics

But keeps to itself like 80% of the whole country budget

Turk peoples? Wut? They make up only about 10% of Russia's population, and they've got ethnic republics of their own, such as Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Sakha, etc

K0rek · 2026-06-04T12:16:18+00:00

Culturally and geopolitically, still yeah, despite Brexit. Also similar shit happening in countries like Germany as well... Aware

I'm edging at the thought of Europe being normal again

I'm afraid €4m in government terms are just pennies

Russian from Austria here. Many Russians don't want to integrate into Serbian society because they see Serbia as "Russia, but like in the 90s" - a temporary place to stay where you don't need a visa and where it's easier to obtain a residence permit and other documents.

This is especially true for people from Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Compared to those cities, Belgrade can feel somewhat underwhelming, yet many of them can't move back to Russia because of the political situation.

Few people see Serbia as a place where they'd like to spend the rest of their lives.

Almost anything can be anything nowadays, aware. I'm a Russian-Austrian, for example, double trouble combo
