After 5 years in development and heavily pushing Unreal Engine 5 technologies, Immortals of Aveum was met with a whopping 751 player peak. For reference, Forspoken was considered a flop but still had over 12,000 players peak total. This may be the biggest flop of the year.

Epic empire rumble sounds kinda cool though
Sounds like a late 90s early 00s low budget RTS with live action cutscenes that youre pretty sure we’re filmed in slme Finnish dudes backyard.
Don’t badmouth royal revolt! The first one barely had microtransactions
Never even heard of it until now. Marketing failed to do its job.
Denuvo
Pass
And an EA account. And agreement to a 3rd party EULA with EA. For a single player game. That’s some real “we’re gonna sell you microtransactions later” energy out of a 60 dollar release.
I need to really want to play a game to make an account outside of whatever launcher I’m using, and that’s just not true here.
Went to the steam page. I had no idea what this game was. Never heard of it and the title doesn’t really do anything for me. So, a minus there. Reviews: Mixed. Minus there. The hero is named Jack and it’s high fantasy. That is the most generic name. Minus there. He looks like every other cookie cutter generic white guy main character. The only time he looks different than a movie star clone is the last second of the trailer. Nothing positive there. The hip hop music with high fantasy is not a good mix, IMO. It’s published by EA. Minus there. The dialog is very “I’m so edgy with my quips.” Minus there.
The villain designs are pretty good. The cinematic trailer is well done.
Reviews say it’s really demanding on hardware. Minus there.
Tons of negatives, a few neutrals, one or two positives. Yeah, this ain’t worth it.
The hero is named Jack
Worse. His name is Jak.
Jak from Jak and Daxter? Oh, no, boring milquetoast Jak from the soooper with-it-and-hip new wannabe-hit videogame, Immortals of Aveum™
Actually I don’t remember whether that other Jak was any good either. Haven’t played that since it was new 😅
I dont even think Jak talked I’m pretty sure it was all daxter
i think they gave him a voice in the second one
I swear, every third white male protagonist is named Jack.
Well, when the protag isn’t the important part, you try to make him less attention grabbing. Thus white male jack.
This can really work well, but holy fuck can it fall flat.
Yeah well, Armored Core 6 just released.
And some of still haven’t come up for air from baulders gate.
It’s just too good to stop playing
I forgot about this game. It looked interesting. I’ll wait for it to come to gamepass or be on sale.
IDK, Denuvo + EA account makes this a hard sell for me. If those are removed, I may consider it at $20, but definitely not $60.
I’ll be playing on Xbox, so that doesn’t ant matter to me.
I didn’t even hear about this game until today.
