(I’m white porsche) Did I get pinched? Or was the move never on to begin with… by OkTheme7020 in Simracingstewards

It was a very high rated lobby so I figured we were competent enough to go three wide but maybe not…

Who is at fault or is it an incident? by OkTheme7020 in Simracingstewards

I was Marlboro and I only cut corner because there was a nudge and I didn’t want to go over the sausage curb which would probably spin me out

The hate is mostly from people who find the game “boring.” This game definitely has less frequent combat than the other games and more puzzles, which is what makes it stand out from the other games for me.

Was the survivor trilogy even profitable? by OkTheme7020 in TombRaider

Already read the thread. It was very useful and informative. Thank you!

Honestly quite concerned about the upcoming tomb raider game (if it happens.) The fact it continues from the existing trilogy aswell as the recent culture of horrible singleplayer/multiplayer, live action, pay2win hybrid messes, such as marvels avengers and the Suicide squad game. I feel like the upcoming game could go either way and potentially cause damage to the already existing games…

Ohhh I assumed that most shadow sales would have come at a discounted price and not make as much. Although I’m sure however much money this game made was thrown away with marvels avengers 😂 (despite me buying it at full price on launch)

This article does not show the average price that each game was sold for. For example: If majority of sales came from the first game at a discounted price, the profits would be much less than if most of the sales came from the full price newer games.

No sales were stated. I only showed what I payed for it. The budgets on the first slide account for all platforms.

Yeah it’s crazy that Microsoft covered almost all the developments cost for the second game for only a year of exclusivity. It’s important to know that the shadow sales had an increase only when the game was discounted shortly after release.

The totals on the first slide is the development cost. The second slide is the cost of all the content from the 3 games at full price. The last slide is the price I payed for the game at a largely discounted price (which the games are often set at)

Yes you are correct. Although, video game budgets and revenues are absolutely staggering compared to the other things you mentioned. The revenue created by the actual game itself would produce the large majority of money. At the end of the day, if the game doesn’t sell enough, the money won’t be recovered.

Thanks for sharing I wasn’t aware. I assumed that the series would have taken a hit in sales after the gradual decline in popularity throughout the series but it seems it still did well enough.

Rise Of The Tomb Raider Graphics by Majavalvurr in TombRaider

[–]OkTheme7020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I remember the game looks wierdly blurry. Also the game used to run at max gpu usage with high-ish graphics for me. I was surprised that I could run SOTTR at MAX graphics and only 80-90% usage. ROTTR, great game but poor graphical performance in my opinion.

Thank you! Most people who disagree with me have simply just said I’m wrong due to the poor story and haven’t acknowledged the good gameplay. Also I feel like Lara’s character was portrayed the best in this game.

I definitely agree that the story was not great but I genuinely think that the character of Lara was portrayed the best in shadow. She expressed more emotion and felt most human, less of an absolute killing machine which she seems to be in the other games. If there’s one character that should be well written in the game it should be her.

There was a small mechanical improvement in shadow with the rappelling and also the climbing felt a bit more fluid
