There is no backlash. It's up against some serious games this time. And Crusader Kings was(is?) on a sale a short time ago. If anything its selling really well.
Wow...OK so first and foremost the sales always dip in the dlc between announcement and release. This is nothing new, I saw it on the global top sellers spot for second place a couple days after release. The DLC will shoot back into the top 10 on launch day, it happened with warden and the paunch, it happened with the shadow and the blade, it will happen again with twisted and the twilight.
Next your topic of you know a bunch of people that left because the game was unbalanced, buggy, no more race packs...ummm what?! Literally the game had its highest peak player count in its history with warden and the paunch, the fan base is growing not shrinking.
Finally, you can't say you are not being negative then LITERALLY in the same sentence say several negative comments about it. Dude i get it, you are not happy about the DLC. I personally have already bought 4 copies for me and my friends. If you do not like it though that is fine, please voice your opinion, but do not try to spread false doom and gloom. Ultimately spreading false facts and negative information only hurts the trilogy in the longrun and helps no one.
It was on the #2 Global Top Sellers for 3 days straight, and only now has slipped.
Furthermore, the announcement of the DLC seems to have pushed more players to play the game:
The peak is back to 35k on the weekend. It was starting to slip to low 30ks after the free weekend.
The game is doing better than it's ever done. The game draws more concurrent players than all other TW Games combined, except for Troy. No idea how Troy is doing:
Anybody who thinks this game is doing badly is delusional.
I really liked the trailer. Was "arty" rather than straight out hollywood blockbuster style. Beautifully done. That beginning with everyone frozen in time was stunning. I'd like more trailers in that style. Say what you want about the devs, but boy, are they talented.
The bad trailer might be caused of this. As you can see the T&T trailer is just meh......and no movie reference.
No movie reference??
One of the Sisters reaching in slow motion upwards with an agonized expression , and an ethereal Queen with heavy echoing vocal distortion who may as well have told us all to love her and despair to make it that little bit more obvious..?

Yeah, the only way the movie reference could have been more obvious was if they had Frodo and Gollum in it

You realize it might be that more people are just buying it from different places instead of directly off steam like they usually do. Many of the total war youtubers have affiliate links that help support their channels, and some sites like Fanatical have bigger discounts than steam (18% vs 10%)
I am still undecided whether to buy this. And i already made my own thread about it so no need to repeat all my points. What I really like about this DLC so far is the FLC part and the Wood Elf Rework Hm...

This thread is dumb and just another whiny attempt to talk bad about this DLC.

The stars of the show are the characters. That’s why we got less units.
