South KoreaGenre fans are interested

“RTS isn't exactly trending right now... biggest worry is how many players will actually be there at launch. If I queue for multiplayer and wait 10 minutes only to fight AI because no one's playing, what's the point of the remaster? I'll wait for actual gameplay footage and early player reactions before buying.”

The record is dataEach market's number is how real players there received comparable titles, on a scale from −1 to +1. A record of what happened to those games, never a forecast for this one.

The deviation is measuredHow often a complaint ends a recommendation is computed per market against the typical market, across those with enough classified voices to compare.
