We don't really understand at 100% the top seller list, in the case of control it could very well be due to dlc in package, but unknown for some others.

I fully believe their "top sellers" list is simply a curated marketing showcase of whatever they want to push because I sincerely doubt anyone is actually buying Godfall.
I think the best sellers list is legitimate, but there are a lot of qualifiers that make it near impossible to gauge sales. Presumably the list includes gross revenue, which would explain freebies like NBA 2K21, Frostpunk and Control making the list due to additional DLC and microtransactions. At the same time, it may or may not exclude preorders which would explain games like Battlefield 2042 not making the list. Also the volume of sales may be low and a title like Godfall wouldn't have to move a lot of copies to chart.
If I were personally curating the top sellers, I would put highly anticipated games like Battlefield, Naraka Bladepoint and STALKER 2 near the top to let people know they exist, especially since they're completely missing from the EGS front page right now. It would also help make the store look better compared to Steam where those games are topping that store's charts.

Looks like EGS top chart now updates at weekly basis, every Monday instead of daily and at 7pm here
Still a bit weird weekly update, to be honest, I wouldn't discard this is still affected by the latest summer sale and that's why games such as Death Stranding or RDR2 are so high in the top 25.

Doesn't Tim have a 'Shopping cart aficionados' list that he puts people on if they tweet him about it?
Dude is such a hypocrite.

No, Timbo. People keep bringing it up and making infographs because it's a fundamental part of an online store and your multi-billion dollar company full of software engineers and departments full of people designing and making trinkets to sell in Fortnite doesn't have a store with a Shopping Cart.
(Not that i'd ever use it unless forced to but my point stands.)
The Store For Your Multi-Billion Dollar Company Is Trash And Even Tiny Indie Publishers Have A Better Shopping Experience Than You Do.
Billionaire Has A Shit Store. Think on it, Tim.

Is there some context why, the CEO of the company that made a totally-not-it's literally 1984 progaganda video (aimed at an audiende that probably missed the reference) is criticizing propaganda ?
nope, no context ... he just felt like he needed to tweet about that ... for some reason
It keeps people talking about him, it's keeping EGS relevant or at least in people's minds.
I'd totally forget EGS existed if it wasn't for tweets and posts here.

The tweet is about Apple's 16-page document: https://www.apple.com/privacy/docs/Building_a_Trusted_Ecosystem_for_Millions_of_Apps.pdf

A common right-wing (fascist) argument is accusing others of doing something wrong when they themselves are doing said thing.

Yes there is.
It's not propaganda if it's meant to be fun and aimed at influencing children.

Microsoft will let devs keep every penny their Windows app makes — unless it’s a game
A major new policy has a big caveat.
Woops.
Mor Epic updated their top sellers for the first time since I think Monday? I believe this is the first update since their sale ended. There's nothing too remarkable to discuss, but Battlefield 2042 is in 25th place so we can finally conclude preorders are included in the top sellers.
Also they updated their most played games. They removed Fortnite, I assume so it doesn't hog the #1 spot in perpetuity. Also, to show how silly and illogical their charts are: an unreleased game, Jurassic World Evolution 2, is currently in 25th place.

.My first thought it is probably supposed to be the original Jurassic World Evolution and there was a screw up somewhere. Still pretty funny though.
This is likely one of the most popular giveaways on EGS. GTA 5 and Star Wars Battlefront 2 are probably the top two games.
Some other notable giveaway statistics are 10 million copies of Remnant: From the Ashes and 7.5 milion copies of Troy: Total War.

I mean, getting this excited that lots of people will download a free game is kind of sad.
That Epic Humble Bundle must be the worst selling bundle ever. It has only sold 3,467 so far and there is only 6 days left
I can't understand that 3.467 actually paid money for the most crappy bundle ever. WWZ is the only decent one and it was a freebie on EGS earlier this year.
How many employees does epic games and it’s investors have worldwide?XD
That's probably the amount of Epic user who is willing to put some money to support their platform of choice. Considering most people just treat it as a free game launcher
Some people just habitually buy any/every bundle.
They're the only ones interested in this.
