Skyrim's full on sales breakdown had it at 86pct console, 14pct PC so.

These types of games take an eternity to finish regardless. It's not like sports titles where you update the rosters, tweak a few graphics and call it a day.

A: Because I can not even start the game after 2 hours of trouble shooting
using steam, google, reddit and youtube guides. (Like wtf)
B: Because its buggy and crashes for those that can play.
C: Because the online is one big grind.
D: Because the online is full with Chinese hackers, so what is the point playing online.
E: Because this game could be better optimized.
F: Because people already played it on the consoles
G: Because it is expensive compared to other games currently in the winter sale.

Probably everyone who want to play it that badly already bought console version. Before PC version.
It still managed to sell 5 million copies more then Witcher 3

It sold poorly on on epic,with about 400k copies sold
steamdb is showing estimate of 200-500k
rockstar launcher is unknown
It sold more than that,but not as much as it did on consoles at the start

i got it on rockstar launcher as a pre order. i stoped playing cause i get every online session the error code 0x2001006. in missions, free roam or selling for the hunter mission. (loss of many hunting grinding). sometimes the error comes direkt after logging in. sometimes after 2-3 hours. but it comes every time.

because of 0x200010006

Because it's extremely low quality product. Early access for a price of full game.

Crashes non-stop in certain locations and in certain launch modes (i.e. when you select a state instead of "free roam" in Online). For example, it took 3 attempts to launch the game right now. And it's not patched for 3 weeks.

Because the PC version is poorly optimizede for many.
Rockstar has gotten to big = arrogant
thinks they can release a game in any state and people will buy.
Same thing with Bethesda look at Fallout 76.

Agreed. Sellout companies that got big on the PC and then sold out to the console ♥♥♥♥. Then try to get back to the PC community and fails...

Rockstar didn't got big because of pc though. Their primary market always was consoles lol

I personally can't bring myself to buying this game. Its probably a good game on its own, but I am burned out of these types of games. Farcry, GTA, kingdomcome and others like it over the last 20 years are different in its environment, but they are also very much the same. It has to be very unique for me to consider it now these days. The crux of not being a casual I guess.

OP, I agree it is a superb game and runs well on my comp. I also been comparing it to Witcher 3, which raised the bar for open world rpgs. So does RDR2 - the fleashed out world and game play is second to none.
