Worst BF launch ever?
Steam accounts for just 20% of BF 2042 sales.
Over 40% of Steam users are under 30 according to Statista.
We also know that this age group is far more susceptible to online influence via influencers (angry joe and other such youtubers) and also by their peers (real life and Read It or whatever it's called). Therefore group think occurs more readily in this demographic.
There are multiple studies available on this subject.
So the large number of negative reviews on Steam and lack of people playing there can be partially put down to the above facts.
I've put North of 100 hours into the game and played at various different times during a 24 hour period and I've never waited more than a few seconds to load into a game with 128 other humans. I've yet to encounter a Bot in AOW.
Therefore I would suggest there is absolutely nothing wrong with the player base numbers outside of one particular platform which, as shown above may not be the best barometer for gauging the health of the game.
What I see is a lot of confirmation bias in regards to game play and performance.

That's ironic, you are judging the player base off of being able to find matches quickly. That doesn't tell you anything, even with a few thousand players you will be able to find games whenever you want. BF3 has less than 100 players average right now, you can still hop into a match with them whenever you want.

Sure, but for how long will you be able to do so? By the end of this year you will be playing with bots, guaranteed 😉
