For context, Larian Studio founder Swen Vincke predicted that the game could reach 100,000 peak concurrent users during its debut period, and that was a fairly optimistic prediction. I work in IT, and really feel for those folks. I hope they designed their infrastructure to scale!
And that’s only Steam, not including GOG, or the influx of PS5 users next month. Let’s take it to 1 million!
Nice. I can’t afford it, but if I could I’d give a copy to my roommate. He’s been looking forward to this game for years but rent is too damn high.
Share your library with him and play in offline mode. Or do couch coop.
Great advice. I don’t own it either though. Just want to make him happy before I’m gone.
Are you moving out or dying?
