  Meanwhile Marathon’s server slam is down by more than 50% from yesterday, dropping from ~150k to ~55k.

  “Dont worry, its a Thursday, just wait until the weekend.”

  Nah bro, it dropped to its lowest concurrent player count on a Friday. That bodes horrendously badly for its future. And I mean, good. Its a skinwalker anyway (though I really love the artstyle, Graphic Brutalism has always been a favorite of mine since it started popping up in the late 2000s, its not a Marathon game, and my love of its art style isnt enough to carry it alone).

  Resident Evil 4 remake peaked at 168k players. Does anybody know why this one is so much more famous? It’s almost double the count.

    The last 10 years or so, there was a sort of “Old RE” and “New RE” set of fans. The new games have really kept their distance from existing lore, and the gameplay has been very different from the older games.

    This is the first new Resident Evil game in a long time that promises to bring the old lore back to the forefront, as well as merging the two styles of game.

    They made Leon hotter by asking women on the dev team for feedback on his design.

    They might have advertised this one better, though I can’t prove that beyond vibes.

      That would be nuts to me, I just heard of this new RE game this week!

    Remakes will never be as popular as new games.

      No, but Resident Evil 4 Remake was definitely an upgrade for the original game, unlike others “remakes” that only change the button interface.

      I used it for comparison because it even had a bigger peak than resident evil 8 (which is 106k).
