It's a brand new game and they are doing twitch drops so those always inflate the numbers of viewers of any game.

Whenever they will realize that all the nonsense in their own heads is not real.
That may be never for some...

That's because it kinda IS hilarious.
It's also a win against the woke's nonsensical take on reality and the 'subtle' call to boycott J. K. Rowling through not buying this.

^ thats insane. That's a top 40 steam number (meaning of any game, ever) This should crack 500K CC on steam on friday, if we're looking how COD did it (it also had a 3 day early access edition).
Game will probably sell 7-8 million in the launch weekend on all platforms if these numbers are accurate.

This is a situation where a game that is not yet launched is the 40th most played game on steam in all of gaming history. And its morning in europe, night in america and the middle of the week. It's quite abnormal behaviour, regardless of the game.

Really like it so far. Need nvidia GRD though.. Stutters when RT is on even though fps is high. Playing without RT at alla atm. 4k ultra, DLLS quality 120fps. Swicthed to DLSS 2.5.1 for better experience. Wonder if this game benefits from enabling ReBAR.? Cant find a profile for it in inspector yet...

Not sure if it's true but I heard this is getting a rating of 9¾ depending on the platform

So mutahar (utuber and loonix fangirl) was mentioning that running the game on linux he was noticing less stuttering and slightly better framerates. But also acknowledged that it might be something with his rig.

Crapnuvo works fine with Proton. HL is even Steam Deck certified

It's pretty much like Pokemon which a huge chunk of gamers my age grew up with.
Sadly I never got into Pokemon or Harry Potter because I had a GameGear, and by the time the books came out I was already reading more "grown up" fantasy. I was an annoying kid.

HP was extremely popular. I liked the movies, kinda interested in this game. Probably one of biggest new franchises in last two decades. Also they didn't whore the license like all the 80's franchises.

what in the flying fuck ? This is top 20 games ever right now, and it's not yet launched. These are just people who bought the more expensive deluxe edition giving 3 day early access. This is gonna do Cyberpunk/Elden Ring numbers if it keeps going up. I would not have suspected this level of popularity |
I'm sorry, but it's pretty funny to see you so surprised by this Been living under a rock ? 
HP is a monster franchise in the likes of SW or Pokémon (not as big as either, but very close to it), it's been years and a whole console generation since a game related to it was last released.. and it's the one open world game every fan has been looking for - to top it off, it's not half bad and brimming with fan service and little details. HP fans also tend to be in the age at which they can just purchase the game if they wish so.
It's coming out at the perfect time too with virtually no competition for potential buyers to hesitate with.
Fasten your seatbelt because the numbers will only grow
Cyberpunk, as insanely hyped as it was within the gaming community (pretty much that community alone) didn't really have a pre-existing fanbase ready to play it.. if some studio came up with a LOTR open world, you'd see probably higher numbers.
If that upcoming open world SW game is any good (and I reckon it'll be roughly of the same quality as this, not amazing but competent enough), it'll blow those numbers off easily.  The level of expectation for that open world has to be high as well (nobody cares about super hero open world games anymore, there's been more than enough of them), it needs to have been cooking for years and years to also create such hype.

Im not surprised that harry potter is popular. Im surprised that by the looks of it, this is going to be the 3rd most popular singleplayer game in steam's history. That means it will have sold the most on PC instead of consoles, because the kind of numbers elden ring and cyberpunk did on steam are higher than any playstation or xbox game in existence ever did.

The game does absolutely nothing for me, but it's nice to see that the many Harry Potter fans finally got their gaming wishes fulfilled despite all the rancid drama surrounding the whole thing. Now if some of my wishes came to fruition too, that'd be swell.
