Don't know how anyone involved with aveum expected that shyt to hit when barely anyone knew it existed a month out from release. That quick stealth drop works if you're a small studio and ready to do grass roots style word of mouth promo. Game like this needed to sell millions and idk how anyone looked at it like yeah its gonna do that. This industry is full sickos and most of them are in upper management.
Has there been a widely successful brand new Triple A IP 3rd party game in the last few years?

It’s probably the most creative setting in a game I’ve seen in a while
It's good, but can be frustrating at times. Some of the side quest bosses are cheap, cheap. I liked the story, but I like X-Files type shyt. It still looks amazing and it came out last generation. It's a game I ended up liking a lot at times, but also hated a lot at times. Like I mentioned before, some of the side quest bosses can be cheap as hell. It took me like 50 times to beat one side quest boss, and I didn't even bother beating another side quest because the boss shyt was so fukking frustrating. The main quest is fine though, so you don't have to be bothered with the annoying side quest bosses if you don't want (but you might want the story, as the lore is really good in this game). The map is also complete trash, and you will have to read signs to get anywhere. You will definitely feel lost and annoyed at times with navigating, but it's doable.

It being set in the Star Wars universe in absolutely any capacity discounts it to what the thread is talking about and you know this.

Bih call me senpai
Genshin is like the 8th highest grossing game of all time and it’s not even 3 years old yet
Seems like those days are long gone
Dropping a couple Milly on a brand new triple A game, especially a new IP doesn't seem like it's worth the investment.
What changed?
What does this say about the industry or gamers? Or both?
The thread doesn't say new original IP it says new IP. It is that.
