Pornhub User Numbers Plummet on Day of Fallout 4 Release

The power for vidya game hype can defeat anything. Even porn.

Sometimes, I have to wonder about statistics. So many studies have wandered to our eyes, especially since the advent of the internet, but some have just been plain... odd. Take, for example, this Pornhub statistic that has been unveiled recently (SFW link here).

The game's release actually slaughtered the site's traffic by about 10% during peak gaming hours (between 5:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and between 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM).

Pornhub actually receives visits from 60 million users daily, meaning that the number that used Pornhub during peak gaming hours dropped by a whole six million. Not even Halo 5 did this. Wow.

How many people bought this game? Nevertheless, this statistic demonstrates the magnitude of the hype's power, especially for a sequel people long awaited for. The odd thing is that on Metacritic, the users have rated Fallout 4 with an overall score of a flat 5.0, though most of the scores were negative.
