That game might have had a chance to find its audience but with the surprise success of Palworld it's now definitely DOA.
Wait, why are the two related? People will be playing one and not have time for the other once it comes out?
I agree, the two games are not related and are in two completely different genres
Yup. That's exactly it. There a lot of people in the "no particular fandom" category that can determine a sales winner and loser.
Palworld is a flash in the pan and I predict its count will drop in a couple of weeks. If Suicide Squad fails, its because its a bad game.
Seriously Palworld reminds me of so many games that are over hyped and then forgotten a month or two later.
It doesn't help that the company behind it, Pocketpair, has a treck record of not finishing their games
I don't see how the two are related, different games with different concerns.
