They are the worst. Have caused me countless headaches.

What's hot dog?

When the article was first posted it said "Published in 2025...”, at least they corrected that heh. But yeah factorio had been around for a couple of years by then.

Do you really think someone out there is going to see a random post where a guy says he has uploaded a bunch of.. something and decide to try to investigate to find out what?

That's not how it works. Even if he had included actual torrent names in the screenshot, the chances of someone caring enough to pursue it are infinitesimal.

I personally think we're close to the high water mark, might see 2.5m, maaaybe 3 but I'm skeptical. You've seen most of what the game has to offer after 10 hours, and the jank + lack of story is sure to cause lots of people to bounce off of it pretty quickly. I think given some time it'll improve, but by then you won't get these crazy peak concurrent numbers.

Nintendo owns a stake in the franchise, but doesn't do the development

TotK and Wonder were far from what I'd call filler.. and from memory, Nintendo has a track record of releasing big name games at the tail end of a console's life cycle (tp on GC, botw on Wii u)..

I admit they're likely releasing the switch successor soon, though they'll likely continue to release games for the OG switch for a few years to come..

I was definitely in the "played less than an hour" boat. Believe I got the demo from PC gamer, tried it (after reading a lot of the backlash) and never really gave it a chance. Based on your comment, I may have to correct that.
