ChrisSpace Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Any bets on where it'll be on the list when it's released? I'm guessing 5th-15th place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superfluous J Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Lists you didn't know existed but aren't surprised to find they do. And it's #20 now. It and Dwarf Fortress are on my personal Wishlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concodroid Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) I have just KSP 2 on my wishlist. If you want KSP 2 at the top, make dummy accounts! Just kidding, don't do that.

swjr-swis Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Some people (read: me) only use the Steam wishlist as the only viable way to get promptly notified of price changes (read: sales). Games have been 'living' on my wishlist awaiting an acceptable price drop for years. So, I wouldn't take wishlisting as indication of how quickly people will buy a game. It may just mean 'might become interested if the price drops enough'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is before the game's released. So most likely people saw it and wishlisted it simply because they want it. A year after the game's release, however, your explanation is perfect.

DStaal Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Either way, it's an indication of *interest* in the game. That interest may not translate to sales directly - but I bet Valve can give you a decent estimate of the average ratio. Also, there's more stats behind that wishlist - I've read someplace that if you set your platform, developers can see how many people are interested in your game on different platforms. (So I've set my platform to Mac, and have wishlisted several Windows-only games - if they ever decide to port to Mac, I'll probably get them. Otherwise, if they're still for sale in five-six years, I may try playing them in emulation if there's a good sale.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be what I meant by emulation. There's a bit of performance hit however - so I typically wait until the performance hit isn't noticeable.

Francois424 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Not surprisingly, BG3 is there as well. Those are the 2 games in my wishlist. Surprised how many ppl are waiting for KSP2. This game always had a niche audience imho... and a couple angry console fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldForest Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 https://store.steampowered.com/search/?filter=popularwishlist Just had a look, KSP 2 is now 15th or 16th most whitelisted. Come on guys, let's get it to top ten status! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pecan Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 It's a bit sad actually that there are no *new* games at all on my wishlist: Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord (sequel) Kerbal Space Program 2 (sequel) Dwarf Fortress (platform release) + a couple of Cities: Skyliines DLC that I might buy on sale.

New gameplay footage or some other excitement-inducing event would also be very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I counted six games that are due to come out before March 2020, so it will be ninth when it releases, but I would like to see it in the top ten by the end of the year, heck, I would like to see it make top five by February.

Many application servers uses virtualization to insulate applications from each other so its not an major performance hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
