Amazon isn't that good a metric, but the PS4 version is currently #794 on US Amazon in video games. So...uhh it's probably bombing really bad in America too.
Amazon usually isn't 100%, but a well selling game sure wouldn't be that low.
Looks like they needed better marketing and should've played up the saints row connection even more.
Hell should've just called it Saints Row: Agents of Mayhem
While by far not the biggest bomb to have released on Steam (according to Steam Spy, Tacoma has yet to hit 10k sales on Steam, although usual pile of salt goes here for any Steam Spy figure under 30k-ish), that's got to be massively disappointing for everyone involved.
Jim Sterling said you could beat this in a day or two. Sooo 5 to 6 hours?
What is this based on? That's not the impression I get at all.See that's the problem, Lawbreakers actually seems like an arena shooter with some unique ideas, while the likes of Quake C is a straight up Overwatch clone

I don't know why, but I also assumed it was some kind of multiplayer shooter like Law Breakers.
That's a shame. It has some issues but overall I've been really enjoying my time with it. Hopefully Deep Silver breaks even at least. I'd hate for anything bad happen to the fine gentlemen and ladies of Volition.
Are game sales so slow in the UK you only have to shift a few thousand units to get in the top 5 of the chart!?
Seriously.Brilliant.
Just shows how well the marketing for this went!
I hadn't even heard of this game until a couple of weeks before release in the Agents of Maybe thread.
If it's a sort of spin off to Saints Row, they should have used that brand name in marketing it as part of the title. I'm sure it would have sold more.
It takes place in the same universe as Saints Row.
They fucked up big time with that stuff.Then there is really no reason other than shit marketing that they couldn't have used it in the title somehow. Or even something on the box that shows it's from the same universe.
Seriously, this was a singleplayer game? The whole way up to launch I thought it was a multiplayer shooter with hero's, like Overwatch and such. So strange.
Sort of? Isn't it supposed to be one possible alternate reality from the shenanigans that happened in the last Saints Row game?It takes place in the same universe as Saints Row.

Always sounded like the link was pretty tenuous, even with the game's returning characters.
