Did Death Stranding's offers make you confused at the decision to buy it, did the reviews make you confused in making the decision to buy it, did Kojima himself make you confused at the decision to buy it? Here's more to make you confused about buying the game, this time from market specialists who have also not been able to set their expectations about game sales?
Matt Pescatello, a market specialist at NPD, said in his latest statement that the game could be in the top 10 of the year or drop to the list of 20 and possibly lower as he described it to the Gamedaily.biz website as follows:
As a result of the assessments on Metacritic where the game got 84/100, this rate may make it fall either at the top of the sales list or the bottom of the list, but where will it fall? It's very hard to say, if I have to make a prediction, I'll say in the top 20 games of the year, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's put elsewhere. As with everything else about this game, predicting is difficult for this game.
If Biscatela, who we used to make his predictions about the sales of big games, especially exclusive ones, according to his view of the performance of the game in the markets and the statistics of the pre-order of these games, he stood unable to give something clear and definitive about the next Kojima game, which he was confused about much in describing.
Other analysts talked about the game's sales, some of whom predicted that sales of between two and three million or five million were the most optimistic forecast. Gaming companies rarely publish weak or difficult sales figures in the markets, but Sony usually discloses sales figures when the game performs well in the markets, so we may get these numbers if the game works.
Death Stranding will be released on Playstation 4 on Friday, November 8, with Arabic support in all versions.
Now tell us, are you going to buy the game from day one or are you going to wait any more?
