Yup, TLoU was about to catch Cyberpunk but out of nowhere Cyperpunk is nearly 4 million ahead lol.
Same with Fallout, it was a couple millions behind TLoU but now is ahead.
Definitely ads going on for both games :)

And here lies the main problem with Xbox's conference. Sure those were shown at their conference, but if the list is divided into console exclusives then no, none of those are MS games. MS just had the luxury of giving them their stage for a bit.
Most of the hype around Microsoft's conference isn't about Microsoft's games.
Do you know if dislikes contribute to a game being less featured in recommended? Obviously the like/dislike ratio is a bit lower on TLOU because of the kiss.
These Gears of War 5 numbers...gotta say i'm not surprised. I have hundreds of hours into first three games, but the newer ones don't offer anything different to keep me playing. Seems like many others have moved on from the series long ago.
The moment when Rod went on stage and announced 3 new games was kinda sad. They don't have creative freedom and should keep working on this.

You can see when they started.
Having less system doesn't stop current and prospective buyers from watching trailer. But let's say it does for the sake of the argument. Why is are the trailers only able to generate interest in small proportion of there fan base?

DMC is just cool period. I think one of the biggest thing that reboot didn't get is that at it's core, a Devil May Cry is about doing cool stylish tricks and stunts. The most stylish thing Donte did was put on his clothes.
Even if you aren't interested in the game you can appreciate that.

I could be wrong but everything besides
Halo
Gears X3
Forza
Cuphead
Ori
Is coming to PS4 including the games you mentioned like Cyberpunk.
Can't believe Halo and Gears have drawn such low viewers. IMO, both franchises are past their prime.
Except God of War has probably outsold Halo 5 by now and The Last of Us sold 17 million, more than the last few Halo's combined.
Then there's the quality aspect, which I don't see Halo winning for a long while.
If Halo maintained a phenomenon like Halo 3 you'd be right, but it hasn't.
That Elder Scrolls trailer literally had nothing
Nothing at all.... Nothing at all... Nothing at all....!
Why are so many people watching it?!

I have no idea, their could be multiple reasons. Theres a split between IGN etc. They changed the name from gears of war to Gears 5, are people searching and not finding the trailer? I have no idea how it works. The sales numbers after reviews will give us a better idea.
There doesn't seem to be an official Microsoft release of the trailer? I search gear 5 and I see only a gamespot trailer. I search gears of war 5 and I see an IGN trailer and someone called Rapid Trailer with 240k views.
Looks like the Sony Trailers are all uploaded by the offical playstation account? maybe that helps.
Is there official microsoft trailers for Gears? I found one by searching the xbox account on youtube and it's linked to "GEARS OF WAR" 2006

That was insane at the time, none of Sony exclusives had such hype until The Last of Us
But in terms of sales, this age for GeOW and Halo was crazy
Just checked and your right it doesn't seem to be on Xbox official channel. The change in search shouldn't be to much of the issue as the "Gears 5"
Search term still comes up with the same results. To be honest I'm a bit flabbergasted at the lack of interest cause in my opinion aside from the 5 studio acquisition, Gears was the highlight of the show.
Because it does nothing for Microsoft? Those games will all be on PS4 along with all those exclusives racking up millions of views.
This thread is about the level of attention that major first-party trailers got based off YouTube viewership metrics and I've asked that the biggest major third-party trailers be incuded as well for comparison - this thread is not about the conference/showcase.
Yep, it's why the PS4 had it's worst year yet last year selling only 20m consoles. Power>>>everything else!
people only care about were their friends play with most multiplats and once they've decided they usually stick with it for SP multiplats too.
Also, exclusive are games.
I did find Xbox videos but it looks like they aren't sponsored or under the correct game listing. I agree it's a shame about gears 5. Could be a slept on hit for the franchise.
People should be careful about reading too much into these numbers.
That being said, they really should give Gears and Halo a break for a while and work on something new. I've lost interest in both franchises for a while (although I want to see more about Infinite) because they just seemed like they had become meathead shooters rather than interesting sci-fi.
I'm glad Gears 5 is going in another direction, but it might not be enough to deter the fatigue. I'd like to see new IP, but that's not even strictly necessary. They have a big well there, let's see a new Fable or Perfect Dark. But I'm not going to read the death of the Gears franchise into some YouTube play count. I'm sure the game will still do decently well.
Glad to see all the interest in Death Stranding, the most exciting exclusive IP from E3. I want the game industry to be unafraid to go in this direction of, taking big, grandiose, creative risks. Even if there are some Heaven's Gate style failures (which I don't think DS will be).
There aren't enough games pushing the art of the medium forward. There are a lot of good games, but a lot of them are a bit too much of the safe crowd-pleasing blockbuster variety.

They are included here http://vizioneck.com/forum/index.php?topic=6396.0
Only Smash did anything view wise, with just over 4m views, placing 12th.
All people I talk too, aren't even aware new Gears are coming out. To them, the original gears were their characters and since the story ended in 3, most of them stop giving a dman about Gears all together.
Maybe it's really about the cast ?

Gears is still huge in Latin America. Mexicans love that IP. I have no explanation in why The franchise is in decline in the US. All the games in the series, except Judgement have been good-great.
I suggested the same thing earlier. If you want to see the stats you should try this thread https://www.resetera.com/threads/e3-2018-trailers-youtube-views-statistics.48342/
It matters it terms of sales? People don't give a shit about on which stage a game appears on, they don't care if the X verison is the superior version (X enhanced). Games like Cyberpunk, DMC, Metro etc.) are all selling better on PS4 than on Xbone according to Amazon US and UKs best seller lists.
MS conference was great, then after a few days everyone mostly forgets about it and don't care which stage a multiplatt game appears on or which version is the superior version.
As the post above yours said, I think it's because it had a satisfying ending with 3 and once you do a ending, it can be quite hard to get people to care for a sequel to a finished story. Especially if you don't completely change it up (like God of War did for example).

Gears 5 will sell well. It's Gears Of War after all. I think what you're seeing is gamer apathy for the IP. Announcing 3 games from the same universe probably watered down the ips enthusiasm level even further.
Halo should be compared to Death Stranding since both trailers dont explain anything

Halo infinite has ~7 million views split between rooster teeth, halo channel, IGN, Xbox and gamespot
I watched it about 5 times because I thought I must be missing something, and there surely couldn't really be nothing shown apart from the title!
it's probably just that google has picked up a lot of search interest in "last of us" recently, which is why they would suggest it to you, especially if your history shows you are interested in gaming
Gears is not huge in latin america, maybe in mexico, but that's it.
If Gears 4 is anything to go by, it will sell OK at best. If you take GamePass into account, it might actually sell a lot less than Gears 4. Depends on how many subscribers the service has by then.
I always thought another Gears of War was the most boring thing ever, but Gears 5 deserves more after seeing the trailer. Looks like they are trying some new things and it looks pretty damn good as well!
Probably because it's the biggest thing The Last of Us related at the moment.
