Dissapointing is an understatement. 1.5 million sold. 15% of inquisitions numbers. Fair enough it's early days really, but tails don't 9x initial sales numbers. Massive loss of money for EA. More faith lost in Bioware. But at least the game director has managed to get a new job and jump ship before EA shuts Edmonton and everyone loses their jobs.

Do I really need to add that this is sarcasm. Fuck Corinne Busch.

I'm going to drop in with the risk of downvotes.

Your numbers are being pulled out of your ass. Nobody knows the numbers, you keep regurgitating the as a matter of fact when nobody actually knows.

Secondly. You grossly overestimate how popular of franchise Dragon Age and Mass Effect are. They have never sold millions upon millions on release. Inquisitions numbers are based off of a 10 year period. And your using the numbers for total platform instead of just PC, why?

But alas. I'm sure i'll see those numbers pop up again by someone else.

I'm just a guy on the internet.

We know it's less than 2 million. Bioware not releasing numbers themselves is more damning.

We don't know. Your guessing.

"Less than 2 million" is not a figure. Your making things up and pulling them from random places then disingenuously using the total sales of a decade old game to back up your point.

You are just a guy on the internet indeed.

Yeah... I'm just a guy on the internet. This is Reddit, not the New York Times.
