MODERATORS
They finally confirmed or denied this claim?
If the leaks to be trusted, they expected to sell 10 million copies but now they're talking about they maybe can sell 3 million copies for the lifetime of the game.
In others words, not a success, pretty bad for a IP so famous like Dragon Age
It was very telling EA announced almost right after the launch that they won't release any DLC's and they're moving the team to ME5 already. If that was not the sign EA left DA:V for dead, I don't know what was.
Back of the napkin math says they've already sold about 1.5M on Steam so far. A handful of sales like they one they've got right now should help them easily blow past 3.
Aren't those awful numbers? Like, a big successful AAA grant does way more than 1.5mil in it's first week. If interest was there they'd be over 3mil by now.
