Andromeda sold high but missed high
Just saw this video on the sales figures of ME:A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj6St0tbaGI His assumptions seem legit and believable to me. ME:A seem to have sold / will sell around 3-4 million ...

Very interesting, but I haven't checked his sources myself. Just because it sounds plausible doesn't need to be even close.
That being said I am inclined to follow his views, mostly because I agree that companies like EA sometimes have a massive discrepancy between their target expectations and market reality (=> competition).
If I remember correctly ME1 did not perform as well as Bioware expected, what maybe lead to its sell-off to EA. But after that modest start of Andromeda ... maybe someone at EA remembers and thinks of it as a good sign :ealight_bulk:
Now to my view of ME:
I personally stand my ground that ME3 is now (including all DLCs) the best ME part.
It has best graphics, best game mechanics, a PvE team orientated MP, weapon mods and levels and an end to the epic journey of Shepard.
ME2 is great (and I perfectly understand that most say it's the best part; for me it lacks many things that were fixed in ME3 though) and I still like ME1 (even after 10 years!).

There is a lot they miss with their so called 'target'.
There is things like, me alone knows about 4 or 5 people who badly wanna play this game but currently don't have a PC thst will run it - and can't afford to upgrade. We are in financially difficult times for a lot of people. Sales figures even arent always a good judge of popularity. How many right now are in the same position? Wanting the game but lacking a platform to play it on due to finaces.

Yeah, and here in my country, with political scandals happening only too often, dollar is spiking up again. If the game follows suit the variable exchange, it'll be impractical buying the thing.

I have a feeling they really need to stall on moving games up platforms and PCs for a while, so people have a chance to catch up again or sales will drop even more. Not so many can afford the latest platforms arm. Once our current PCs in our house arent viable we wont be able to afford new ones for a while and they are a few years old now. We used to be able to keep up but uust can't right now.
