10 000 players for HALF LIFE Alyx a few hours after release

if someone in 2012 told you the next HL game will have 10,000 players 20 hours after release would you believe it?

It's like if the people that could afford to pay a 1000$ for a single game had to go to work the next day.

Really makes you think.

>all that cope
I make 6 figures a year and have no interest in playing this piece of shit 1,000$ single game.

europe + north america is quarantined

For the seven stages of grief, is this denial or bargaining?

No, you can't just have an important job and work while being in quarantine.

That's impossible!

yes because nu-valve is doomed

Most of the people play from the US, so you'll have to wait later in the afternoon to see how many of them are connected

It's yuro poorfag hours. Americans are sleeping

cope, most vr fags are jobless neets

Me too and I have no interest in a Ninja Blender. Doesn't mean it's a failure.

This. You could be a grocery stockboy or a bus driver.

Nobody wants to play as Alyx

They want to play as the ONE FREE MAN

Impressive that they broke all the VR records. The next games they have in the making will break the previous ones.

gee, I wonder why

Why do you think these niggers pirate so much? They can't even pay for one game let alone a VR headset. I think they have bigger problems to think about like where to get the next meal.

Fact: There is no such thing as a VRfag who has a job. They're all pathetic NEETs.

Have you seen the plot? Alyx is replacing Gordon Freeman as the MC of the franchise

Please, point to the part in my post where I said Half-Life : Alyx is a failure.

>> lots of index units are fucked right now too on hardware level
I don’t see my replacement showing up for months if ever due to coronachan and warranty expire.

People with important jobs can work from home.

Honestly with those numbers hitting 40k was impressive.

NOT AN ARGUMENT YOU STUPID NIGGER

probably a lot of people who bought it without knowing a VR headset was mandatory

That's mean you don't play video games.

Well I’d certainly raise an eyebrow considering Valve was a real game developer a decade ago before steam made them fat and filled with contempt for their fellow man

Sounds terrible, but I really doubt that's going to happen.

And lose out on the marketability of Pc gaming biggest icons? That’s like Halo and Xbox ditching master chief

fuck off gabe, VR is dead

VR IS FOR NIGGERS

If it was true the game wouldn't be called HL: Alyx, it would be called HL3.

>VR is dead
Died right after best VR game released right?

game actually sucks it's a big gimmick, feel sorry for anyone who was scammed into this

If someone told me the next Half Life would be a gimmick based spinoff, yes I'd believe it.

The last part is so true. They constantly try to bait us into arguments about VR tech, markets or whatever, when the real problem is that they are simply deadbeats.

So VRniggers only argument is that poorfags can't buy it?
lmao, just lmao

Gordon Whoman is not even remotely iconic.

yes, no one plays it, why would dev waste time and money on VR shit when less than 1% of users can play it

Valve tested the VR market
Doubt they'll keep on considering the results

>le grabby shooty vr meme game didn't get everyone to buy a 1k headset
wow what a surprise
VR is a meme. Alyx is literally the same as every other VR game. Run around with 0 interaction with your environment, occasionally pull or push something, and then shoot things with 0 mechanics or gameplay.

Until VR starts using the mind instead of our senses, it will always be a meme because you can never actually interact, which is the whole point.

Probably their most favorite distraction argument is the popularity argument. To belittle VR so it looks like it's not worth it for them. Falls right into the fox and the grapes logic.

Weird how people who are adamant about not wanting anything to do with something are so obsessed with its userbase. Doesn't logic dictate that they would move on and the actual users would be concerned with the popularity? I for one don't spend time in some Nintendo threads worrying about Nintendo's popularity because I have zero interest in owning a Nintendo.

I'm a poverty fag so I'll probably never play Half Life Alyx and that's okay.

So now that I finished the game, when's the next big VR game?
I didn't pay 3000$ only for that r-right?

Based user is honest.

You should stick to rice and beans and playing PS2 games, user.

Bargaining.
>o-only poor people don't like VR because they can't afford a 1k headset!
Nevermind that poors are known for their bad economic decisions which make them poor in the first place. Most poors have smartphones that cost way more than an Index, and buy new ones every year.

He is undeniably iconic, but for the wrong reasons.

>considering the results
>index sold out
>game praised by critics and players
>probably the best selling vr title yet
Looks like pretty good results to me. What are you talking about?

is this gonna be the flavor of the week shitpost?
weak

We still have to work from home you uneducated retard.

If Valve shit on its fanbase for 13 years. Yes.

>Yas Forums's opinion when a game with low player count exists: it's niche and nice and I like it
>also Yas Forums's opinion when a HL VR niche game launches and only has 10k players: OH NONONOOOO AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA soijak.jpg
>inb4 >Yas Forums is one person

Hang in there for the Starfield port, I guess.

Whoever made that retarded trannypost need to dilate.

>he doesn't know

>inb4 >Yas Forums is one person
Don't worry, board meta is always relevant. We have a few dozen extremely active shitposters here who make up like a third of the posts on Yas Forums.

Can anyone explain how come all burgers sound the same when they're trying to hide their butthurt by patronizing? They have the same style of bad attempts at condescension that just seem cringe, they all seem to write the same too, maybe it's just the same extremely butthurt mutt across all boards. It reads a bit like the obese losers in middle school trying to "get back" at his bullies in an essay but only shaming himself more in the process.

They do the exact same whenever we have a good old laugh at mutts thread on Yas Forums or Yas Forums.

I seriously can't tell if it's shitposting or someone is actually this deranged.

>what is a swansong

this is how v has acted since the dawn of time.
game gets ANY kind of coverage? it must be shitposted about.
Only niche games that aren't talked about that much are allowed to be praised and even then the moment some threads pop up shitpost saying it's the worst game ever is gonna pop up soon.

It was all doom and gloom (for a reason) at the tail end of the 2000s, then tortanic happened and the "le epic contrarian" meme got absolutely out of hand with people shtposting about the most nitpicky things
