Back of the napkin math says they more than broke even on their $80M investment into the game post-launch. I enjoyed the game at launch (which I know wasn’t necessarily the norm), and I largely enjoyed the expansion. Unfortunately, this is what I have to scratch my FPS campaign itch these days, but it’s still a pretty good one of those combined with a pretty good RPG. It would especially be nice to see them up the ante on the RPG aspects, because next to Baldur’s Gate 3 this year, you don’t get anywhere near the same sense of freedom and creativity.
I also enjoyed the game on release, I had very few bugs and the ones I did encounter I was able to work around in various ways. The most memorable one was a bug where killing the enemies would prevent the next objective from being scannable, preventing it from continuing and completion. Everything else was pretty minimal and I was able to 100% the game. Post game I spent modding which I also got a lot of enjoyment out of a little over 200 hours total in the game.
Haven’t been able to get to Phantom Liberty yet, and I haven’t started a new playthrough for the update be has I’m attached to my save (which is silly lol). I’ll get to it.
I feel you on the lack of compelling FPS games these days though. Like Dishonored, but with guns!
