EDIT: I screwed the title, I meant '2.05 copies per second', forgive meSorry if this post doesn't fit this sub, I just think the immediate success of Valheim is very incredible from a statistical standpoint. Another game I love has just reached 3 million copies (in 2 years), so it really piqued my interest when I compared it to Valheim's sales. Valheim surpassed 3 Million copies in only 3 weeks time. Heres a table with a bit of data:
Milestone | Total Copies sold | Rate (copies per second) |
---|---|---|
2021, February 02 – Release | (0) | – |

2021, February 15 | 2,000,000 | 2.32 (5 day period) |
2021, February 19 | 3,000,000 | 2.89 (4 day period) |
