12 and million? Dude that’s low sales. Barely over millionThat didn't include PC (launched a year later), but still... 12+M is amazing, especially since this doesn't include PS4/Xbox One/Switch sales.
Not even remotely close to gta5, that did 1$ billion in sales within 24h , that's insane I didn't know gta sold that much lmaoOMG. Thats better than RDR2. Almost CoD and GTA numbers. holy shit.
Reddit is as much deranged as twitter cretins if not more what did you expect lmaor/games subreddit is deleting any post about this
HL>ER confirmed
/s
That place is going to have to ban sales threads for the rest of the year LMAOWonder why reset era isn’t reporting these numbers, this is awesome and well deserved!
Pretending reality doesn't exist is their M.O.Wonder why reset era isn’t reporting these numbers, this is awesome and well deserved!
Woke game is canceled by the woke mob it panders to because the woke author didn't agree with 1 thing they said and the sales are celebrated by the average anti-woke youtuber that tells you to boycott anything woke just to mock the woke mob that tells you to boycott the woke game.This whole thing is hilarious.
“Woke” game became big with bigots out of spite.
“That game”What will era do with the NPD thread next month? Just block out the top entry?
They really are nutcases
Their latest 2 famitsu threads have been funny, some will call it the game that cannot be named, others will pretend it isn't #1, others will just say it and risk a ban. Famiboards won't ban you for posting about it but will censor your postThat place is going to have to ban sales threads for the rest of the year LMAO
What is the % of residuals that JKR gets on every unit sold?
In what way is it woke, everything has always been inclusive and a little woke in some sense.The game is very inclusive and "woke", so that makes no sense.
activists have really gone wild on this to absolutely no fucking avail. first era, then r/gcj then r/gamesr/games subreddit is deleting any post about this

The character creator is woke (you can be a male and choose the girl's dormitory because feelings, it also breaks the lore).In what way is it woke, everything has always been inclusive and a little woke in some sense.
The original TNG series was woke if you really look at it, but it wasn't insane woke
it's the type you can agree with and are happy to see.
It's just extreme these days like they're smashing you over the head with it and that's what people people hate.
For those of you talking JK Rowling royalties, I wonder too.
The $850M is retail dollars. So the wholesale price is around 70% of that, so you're still talking about $600M already. By the time the game sales end, it'll probably cross $1B cost price.
Just assuming $1B for sake of a benchmark, For every 1% royalty she pockets herself, that's $10M per percentage point. Or perhaps she has a flat fee like $2 per copy. Who knows.
Love it. JK has to do a tweet on the moolah to rub it in SJW faces.
The craziest thing about all of this is this is very much phase 1.
The engine is so fucking good, Hogwarts is already built and functioning. The spells work great, everything is in place.
A sequel would just need to comprise of a few new spells, a few new enemy types, a few more interactions and that’s it, it’s ready to go and sell £1b first month.
Quidditch, Diagon-Alley, Gringotts, Azkaban, all pretty much untouched, and will be huge draws.
Not to mention the Tri-Wizard tournament which will be a whole game / story in itself. Then you’ve got other wizarding schools.
The source material ALONE ensure as long as they’re sensible with the timescales to get things spot on, something like 4/5 mainline games of this quality in 10 years , each with 3 paid DLC’s & a GOTY edition.
With a Xmas release schedule. This series will hit GTA/Pokémon numbers.
Fair enoughThe character creator is woke (you can be a male and choose the girl's dormitory because feelings, it also breaks the lore).
First trans character in the wizarding world.
Female character talks about her wife.
I don't know about anything about star trek, but none of this is what made the HP books so universally loved.

Top Gun Maverick has to be the most stereotypical macho man, action packed, guy gets the girl plot known to man. They even changed the plot where it really should be Kelly McGillis and Tom Cruise in their 60s still going at it, but they dumped that old bag for sexy Jennifer Connelly.Probably been said, but HW has been one of the vilified and attacked pieces of entertainment media in recent memory. Coverage of it banned on many sites like Era. However its now shaping up to be one of the most successful games in recent memory.
What does that tell you about how small the group of woke libtards is and how no one takes them seriously. They are just vocal and influence others with bully tactics.
The indsustry should wake up and no longer fear or listen to these deranged and mentally ill activists.
Elden Ring is gonna get wrecked!
Well, there it is.
Probably looking at 30M+ lifetime then.
I wonder if it will break 20 million by the end of the year.
Paging Reshitera ....your blockade worked- shows everyone how batshit crazy you are.[/URL]
Just a massive success for Avalanche, Warner Bros and gamers alike.
My reaction to that information:
Honorable mentions:
Gillete
Nike
It will be close, I think. If they market it during the winter holidays plus harry potter day, have sales, and they will have last gen available, so the 8 million needed to hit that 20 million is possible.My guess is no. Here's why:
1. No last gen ports until April.
2. Incredible competition in March, April and May...and the rest of the year still holds a lot of mysteries.
Elden Ring had a whole lot of time to itself because:
That said, 20 million is definitely feasible for Hogwarts. It's a successful title, no doubt about it.
- Horizon sequel came and went
- Destiny 2 is Destiny 2
- GT7 is an entirely different kind of game and was not in direct competition with ER.

Those people never gave any shit about the pandering or the developers,they desperately wanted this game to fail just to show off and label players as bigots , they tried harrassing reviewers,bloggers, banning any talk about Hogwarts Legacy,and it backfired spectacularly, JKRowling will make tons of out of this,nobody cares about the trans character either they just complain its named Sirona lolI'm dead at all the people in here saying "that will show the woke crowd!" because by all definitions the game itself is "woke". You have lesbians, transgender people, and people of colour all over the place.

'tough competition' & 'suicide squad'?...Yeah, I can see that. And it will definitely be close. I don't want to bet against this game right now because of how well it's performing, but it's really the lack of current gen until April, and then the tough competition starting in March that give me hesitation. Look what it's going up against:
- Suicide Squad
