Im not overly sympathetic since they were another last minute EGS exclusive, but it’s more a shame that the people who worked on the game have gotten shafted by bad management decisions, as I understand it’s a pretty cool game.
Pretty sure they wanted people to play their game though.
GIven how snarky they were being about people not preordering I'm pretty sure this is a trolling attempt
I believe Jace is a member of the Satisfactory team, but it’s hard to tell. The whole twitter thread is kinda insane.
Of course it was a joke, just by counting the amount of people on twitter going "oh I guess I'm one of the 9?" clearly tell that they sold more than 9.
Still, what's the point of that tweet? A ploy to get people sympathetic?
Seems to me like they're trying to discourage people from buying their game.
For me at least, a developer shitposting on Twitter all day just sends up all kinds of red flags to me. But maybe that's just because the creators I know of who shitpost all day also tend to be assholes.
Well don’t I look the fool then. I guess I’d change the thread title to “Last Minute EGS Exclusive “Satisfactory” Dev Fishing For Sympathy Lies About Poor Sales”.
A shame EGS doesn’t have any way to see sales stats 🙄
Uh, that's odd. Is it possible that it's just a joke or something? 8 copies seems statistically improbable even for the EGS.
A youtuber I follow has been playing it and it looks pretty good. He was discussing it as if a good amount of people were playing it, too. I feel like this is all unconfirmed.
Probably to make a point (in a sarcastic fashion) for the people who protest this exclusivity practice by implying that "It's selling like hotcakes! See?!". Kind of asshole-ish.
The developers do, but not the ones who made the decision to leave other platforms for that Epic money. They know they're "made men" regardless what the consumers say or do.
I heard third-hand that they recently celebrated 100k sales or something with the Factorio team.
I can't be assed trying to look it up, because frankly all of their recent shitposting has turned me off completely.
But on that note, this is certainly shitposting.
Those were subscribers, no mention of sales from what I see.
