Goalposts moving...it's still the number 1 best seller on Steam.
Don't EA also have their own platform? How many people are playing it on EA Play Pro?

It’ll be curious if we could get EA play subs for the month and play numbers from that platform.
Unlike the other games in your list, this game is on the EA subscription so will take away from stream stats somewhat. I imagine you’ll get significant numbers taking out a month of EA play to give the game a play through, rather than a purchase

Well, when you put it like that.....
Not sure but physical version is #1 PS5 game on Amazon atm too. Needless to say just using Steam (which is already a decent number) is disingenuous.

being the #1 seller is only true at any given time, its currently ranked higher in that sense than Boulders Gate 3, Counterstrike 2 ecte.... which is true on the day but i don't think anyone would agree it out sold those in overall copy's shipped, give it a while and it will fall down those rankings.
Right now its the newest thing on the store.
35K players right now.

To me it looked liked a game that was always going to sell fine. That it's so far removed from its origins and looks subpar in terms of writing quality or gameplay means very little for the audience it's courting, not to mention that it's clearly aimed more at the console audience too and that's a group which slurps up slop like this on the regular.
For me I'm way past the acceptance stage with Bioware and have been since Andromeda. As for DATV on its own merits I can honestly say that my first 3 hrs with it have felt pointless; the combat is boring and annoying, while the writing and even the scene arrangement for cinematics feel like I'm looking at someone in the process of learning how to act/direct/write rather than the finished product of someone already accomplished. Coming from having recently played through Midnight Suns & Spiderman Remastered the difference couldn't be more obvious. The only good thing I've seen so far is its technical options.

When America is in bed and most people in Europe are working.
Starfield was on gamepass day 1, which is way more popular sub than EA Pro, and still managed nearly five times higher CCU.
70K is not concord level disaster, but I have serious doubts the game will ever be profitable, given its lenght of development and amount of people working on it.
For reference, Dragon's Dogma 2 has 220K CCU, and sold 3 million units (across all platforms) few months after launch.
If DAV sold 3 million at full price, it is unlikely it would make its budget back. But the number is probably going to be significantly lower, judging by the CCU.

This is my ugly creation woke creation that took 5 minutes last night
The good thing is if it offends you so much you can mash a button to skip all the dialogue in that scene.
It’s hardly likely to offend me.

Well no, because you won't play it

I only want to try the character creator in games like this.
only 29th on the most played stats, I guess that shows how less copies you need to sell to be the best seller
17 other games had more peak players.
Even black myth wukong is still doing double the max player count.
A game no one will care about come 4-5 days time
The 60 year old woman?
whys she seem to have so much makeup? what age is this game set in? are their actual makeup stores?

Black Myth: Wukong which had one of the most successful launches for a game in history? Wow, very surprising it would have high player numbers
