One week from next recording day
Let's check in on some stats
CD: 
Marathon: 
AR: 
Seems Marathon isn't Concord 3 after all. Good for them. Not sure if Sony will keep Bungie either open or allow them to have the number of developers they have with numbers like this. They paid big for a new live service pillar of business. Not sure that's quite what they have here. Especially when it continues to lag behind Arc Raiders on player counts like this.
Meanwhile, concurrent player count means nothing to a single player game other than current popularity (not sales, I have plenty of games I own and never launched personally lol) but Crimson Desert continues to do very very well.
Meanwhile, bloggers are really mad that steam emits these metrics, and multiple articles, such as this one from just today keep getting published - https://gamerant.com/i-dont-care-about-marathons-sales-or-player-count-and-you-shouldnt-either/
Kind of sounds like to me that Crimson Desert really is a Tears-of-the-kingdom-like game that isn't kept in a cage by Nintendo lol
We'll see where its all at in a week.
