‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Is Doing 70,000 Steam Players A Night, Four Years Later
As it stands, Cyberpunk is currently peaking at between 60-70,000 concurrent players a night on Steam, numbers some actually live ongoing games would kill for.
You're viewing a single thread.
The gold standard in games retaining playerbases in this genre is Baldur’s Gate 3, which still puts up over 100,000 players nightly, though it released just over a year and a half ago.
"Released"...
Going off memory but I think BG3's act 1 was out before cyberpunk or close to the same time. I had 100+ hours before the game released, and it was with huge gaps of play time. I think it was in Beta for at least two years.
Well… Cyberpunk was basically an unfinished alpha when it was released.
Also, BG3 has no major DLC.
it was (mostly) fine for PC. it was only absolutely abysmal if you were a console player.
For PC, although there were bugs, it wasn't as buggy when comparing it to like a bethesda title. It just got a lot of vitrol because its of the very rare moments in time where the console version of a title was unplayable(as when something is usually unplayable, its usually the oppisite)

I played it the day it was released on pc, the only issue was how shitty the cars drove. But you could change the setting so bikes were usable
Consoles were different, but PC I never really had issues.
On launch it was surprisingly playable on Stadia. My first playthrough was entirely on Stadia.
I bought both cyberpunk and BG3 in gog instead of steam. I would guess cyberpunk sells more through gog than BG3 would since it's their own platform. Would be interesting if gog stats could be seen as well, but since it's DRM free, tracking stats on some people are outright impossible.
Fluff piece has the typical fluff piece inconsistencies. Chief among them, utter lack of disclosure.
