Mist be pennies compared to sales

[–] voracitude@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

With 19 million sales, I figure they made somewhere in the region of $200-300 million first week or two. Half a million in server bills in that time ain't chump change, but yeah, they're still in the black for sure.

Yeah, that actually sounds astoundingly cheap compared to server costs for many other multiplayer games with comparable player bases/activity.
