    What does 5 million other people playing a singleplayer game do for your singleplayer game
    nobody's ever answered me correctly on this

      It's an easy-to-understand metric on how good a game is and how actively the devs are updating the game.

        Increased resources for fixes and updates/expansions. I guarantee you the level cap is getting increased

        Once again, nobody's been able to answer me correctly.
        Why do you need someon else to be playing the same singleplayer game as you at the same time?

          it absolutely doesn't matter from one player's perspective.
          it does matter when the game is actively being worked on. a low player count will discourage the developer from adding new content to the game as they will see it as a waste of time.

          baldur's gate 3's team was only expecting 100,000 concurrent players, but this massive number will encourage them to add a lot of great new content to the game later.

            I posted CrossCode specifically because it continuously got updates as it was being worked on over the course of a decade. I am also currently posting Yakuza 0 which launched as a finished game (a lost art) without needing constant updates and is the most popular game in the series.

          It mainly has to do with insecurity. These kinds of players need to have big playercounts on the games they're playing in order to feel secure about their choice of playing that game. They need the validation of their fellow npcs in order to not feel bad.

          that makes no sense and its irrelevant to the first question. having someone "play at the same time" is different from having a massive consumer base.

          youre silly.

            If you were the only person playing Baldur's Gate right now, what would change about the game you are currently playing?

                Its okay little zoom, I know consumerism is all you know. Enjoy missing out on good games because theres not other people playing them at the same time right this minute.

              sounds like it must be a shitty game if only 1 person is playing it.

      >how is there a difference between mcdonalds and Peter Luger?

      Simcity (2014) was made for 5 million people. Cities skylines was made for 50,000 people. Corporations have profit projections based on these numbers. It can impact future products. Mcdonalds cant afford to provide everyone a 5 star steak dinner the same way a company like Bethesda cant afford quality control, voice actors, skilled developers, or a lot of things really.

      While its not because theres 5 million people its part of it.

    DF players acted like their game was some sort of software IQ test because they managed to come to grips with the awful graphics. Then the steam version was released and showed everyone that the game is just a basic b***h colony sim with a text generator attached. This made DF elitists seethe hard to this day.
