Only 23% of people finished the game

[WestJake]

According to achievement stats. I wonder if the rest is softlocked or waiting for further patches.

[Black Hole]

Unless those people explain why they didn't bother finishing the game will never know.

[CalicoJack]

I can not go on because the game crashes with an error message after the first level.

[Johnnius]

I'm waiting for the awful texture pop-in to be addressed

[Mitth'raw'nuruodo]

Waiting for some patches and updates. Perhaps some more content, if any.

I don't like playing story-based games more than once. I would rather have one complete playthrough, as exhaustive as possible in terms of content., with the game being in its best possible condition.

That's why I usually I wait for games to have discounted GOTY (or equivalent) editions couple of years after launch. I bought this one early only to show my support for the franchise.

The game crashes constantly upon some scene transitions. It needs patches, a lot of them according to forums.

[Brymsd]

cant beat the game cus the final mission crashes like crazy

Every game is like that.

People buy games and sit on them, the average Steam user as a back log of more than 5 games and 22% of all steam games are never played after purchase.

That could be the case if the game was already heavily discounted, I doubt that many people would buy this game AT LAUNCH for full price just to never play it.

But they do, and for every single game out there. I didnt pull those stats out of my butt, those are real steam reported numbers.

I have done it myself as well, intend to play a new release, then got called into work or my kid was sick, had to travel etc.

I personally have a back log of about 15 games and i still keep buying games.
Other people get the collector bug and buy games knowing they may never play them, they just want to collect them.

For real? Damn, are those people rich or just don't respect money? If I buy a game on Steam then I'll definitely play it, no matter if it costs 70 Euros or just 70 Cents, if it sucks I can still refund.

I also have a few games I never even installed, but those are either games I have no interest in playing but were gifted to me, games like Truck simulators, or a few ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games I can't refund because I got them in a cheap bundle on one of the reseller sites, like the FlatOut bundle I bought for 5 Euros on Indie Gala.

[NuclearSnail]

Yeah but 24.1 percent saved a cat at least lol. Also, it looks like half of players finished Wendell's confession mission, but only 23 percent actually completed the game so it's not a technical issue, but rather Looks like a lot of people had a problem with the final boss fight.

Some people have more money than sense and some people are jsut crazy. like you i intend to play everything i ever spent money on.

However, i am sure things like Humble Bundle play a factor. If your getting 8-12 games every month, some of them are going to be genres you may not like, and thus those go unplayed forever. But those are almost always not new. Games in the bundles are usually at least a year old.

Heresy! The game is broken! Broken, I tell you! Don't let facts and logic get in the way of truth!

That's a lot. Check other games. Mostly, it's around 10%, if even.

lol, yeah some people will use any excuse to not try. But that aside, you can use facts to easily summarize that a little over half of all players made it to the end boss fight, but never beat it. The only logical conclusion is that the game runs fine. The players just rage quit because it was too hard for them. From there, it's not a leap to assume there are a lot of people with very fragile egos out there. Looks like more than half of robocop players just don't have the mental discipline required to put any effort into anything, and will simply quit a task when presented with a challenge. If the rats know you won't let them go hungry, they won't run the maze.
