If I know anything about western gamers, they’re buying the fucking skins. But 40,000k is shit lol.

40k is honestly very respectable for an extraction shooter

hunt showdown has like 20k and is considered a "success"

And it’s somehow keeping Crytek in business. 20000k players buying micro transactions is all you need. But I doubt Sony is pleased with such a modest turnout after they panic-purchased Bungie in response to Microsoft.

Extraction shooter means infiltrate a checkpoint get the loot and get out while avoiding Ruination. It’s kind of a niche shooter genre that originated with Scumbag Russians. So not exactly Western in origin.

There’s no reason to think that would be more niche than battle royales imo. “My Gear! I have to Extract!” Why not just Kill other players and ngaf

That’s what most people think which is why it’s niche. It appeals to people who like to horde and upgrade Gear.

I can't make sense of the reddit threads. it takes them hours to get "gear" that they lose instantly? does the gear have any value while they have it?

The idea is that you “extract” with the best shit you can find and carry so you can upgrade your weapons so that you are better at killing…so you can extract with even better shit or something. It’s an absurd loop and as noted it means Losers are precious about everything and hate when you shoot them. Except for in Escape from Tarkov because that’s all Russians who murder people for fun irl afaik. It’s basically Diablo.

arc raiders is reddit + extraction shooters

pretty much 90% of solo lobbies are weird losers collecting junk that they dont even use and fighting ai

they got lucky reddit hopped on but they arent playing the game the way it was designed

they essentially created a teddy bear bubble, no clue how they can have fun just collecting shit that they have no use for since youre supposed to collect shit to build ur guns and fix them but they are just fighting ai which costs essentially nothing and can be bought with in game cash which takes like 5 seconds to get enough to afford an ai loudout

Extraction shooters are gay af, they only appeal to dad gamers that aren't good at competitive games. Really one of the worst genres of all time

I don't like spending money on games bc it's like 1 % chance they're good. I would spend $1000k on AAA M-rated Zelda though. $40 is too much to try this for 5 minutes imho
