To no ones surprise, BF5 has tanked on release, sales wise. It also has gotten panned in the gaming community as well, as no one really cares about it.
So what went wrong?
- terrible marketing for it, starting at E3 thru release date. I honestly forgot about it
- a SJW agenda pushed in game (whether you care or dont care, it is definitely a factor)
- stupid staggered release dates depending on version bought ie deluxe standard etc.
- it is released too soon after Battlefield 1. Though there are a few improvements overall than BF1, I mean, it is still very close to the same era of warfare before electronics and modern weaponry.
This is yet another low mark on EA/DICE. BF1 was widely regarded as a success, but Battlefront 1 & 2 and now BF5 are not. That's 1 out of their last 4 games to be successful. Ouch.
