dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Did it do well? They sold it 80% off months after release?

Unfortunately, it did incredibly well. It made over $1 billion in revenue and is considered one of the best-selling video games of all time.

The generous sales seem to be just how WB Games does things. Batman, Lord of the Rings, etc. games from them were also like $5 barely a year after they came out.

Steamcharts says peak playerbase was half a million on steam alone at launch. Elden Ring had 950k all-time. I'd say that's pretty good for a middling open world.
