God of War stagnated compared to Spider-ManSony sells a lot of games through bundles and online sales, but it's impossible to make any sense of it without numbers.
I am not saying it flopped, it obviously didn't, it was huge, but whether you look at Spider-Man or God of War 2018, none of those games stagnated as much as TLOU2.
Those games sold maybe 5 million in the first month and spent the next year getting that 10 million mark. The Last of Us 2 however, seems to have sold 6-8 million at launch, and then spend almost 2 years selling the next 2 million.
That's why this conversation is dredged back up, Ragnarok is a pretty good comparison point hence the similarities in marketing and focus, yet it only highlights even more how The Last of Us 2 completely stagnated for some weird reason.
Last of Us Part II stagnated compared to God of War and Spider-Man.
People say it was due to the backlash but by how much? If people can bring up the backlash due to the sales being low, then people shouldn't completely ignore bundles.

That's at least 4 or 5 bundles within the first year of its release. One is a holiday bundle.
I did not include limited edition bundles because both The Last of Us and God of War released one.
God of War would have not reached 10 million in sales in 13 months without it.
