This game is selling terribly on PC
Not even 10,000 concurrent players. I doubt Sony will release another one of their games on PC again, it's just not worth it imo

Not sure why they keep releasing these terrible PS plus freebie games on PC and trying to charge full price for them.

They know we want bloodborne, ghost of tsushima, dark souls remake, but they just keep releasing the bottom of the barrel games nobody even bought on playstation.

If Sony is not willing to release a fully functional PC optimised product, they shouldn't be surprised its not selling well.

Tone of your post seems to be suggesting that it's our fault as PC gamers that Sony is losing profits, and its somehow our duty to support Sony by buying virtually faulty product at full price.

Ratchet and Clank is not mainstream series so i am sure Sony didnt expect it so sell much, plus almost non existing marketing. If you thought that R&C game will have 100k players that is on you.

Shame, people are missing out

It's an awesome game, runs great, looks great, sounds great.

Concurrent players are not overall sales.

Too many technical issues as per usual, generally better for gamers to wait a month for them to patch out the bugs. Sad, but that's becoming normal now.

I'm sure it sold fine. Not every game can be fanboy bait like Hogwarts or Jedi, while still being sold completely broken and unfinished - left neglected. :steamfacepalm:

Insomniac made a great game and Nixxes always does great ports. People skipping it are missing out on a fun time.

I'd say way longer than a month. Jedi and Hogwarts, 2 MAJOR AAA releases, are still busted many month after release.

You can tell more or less if a game is going to be cared for when it hits day one. Everyone warned us about Jedi and Hogwarts running poorly (regardless of UE4 excuses). R&C came out of the gate as a decent release and barely a week after several post release patches already fixing REAL issues, not bullsh*t patches like Jedi and Hogwarts used to placate customers, with apology tweets. :steamfacepalm:

It's a huge AAA IP that has existed for over 2 decades with over 15 entries lol. I have no doubt that they are disappointed with the PC sales.

As always, it will surely increase after a few weeks and a few price drops.
For example, i end up buying all sony games in the end once it reaches 30 €.

One of the best looking games on PC to date.

Just because something exist for 20 years doesnt mean that the series is mainstream.
Not a single R&C sold more then 4m, most of them especially Future games, sold between 1 and 2 million. I love R&C games so much but they are not type of game that would make someone think buying console for. I am sure huge amount of PC players didnt even know about R&C till they announced Rift Apart for PC.

AM5 AMD 7700X (No OC)
32gb DDR5 6000mhz
Gigabyte X670 GAMING X AX (nearly £300 mobo on Amazon)
Installed on WD Black SN850x NVMe SSD + Heatsink (2gb)
Gigabyte RTX 3080 (no RT) Ultra + High

I played it last night on my 4k LG 65" tv running at 1440p

Was smooth as butter, no stuttering. I am not making this up. Only had one crash on TLOU. Apart from that it ran exactly the same as R+C.

WTF is happening??? If I had issues, I would report them and ask for help but no, it's been bloody great. The detail on R+C blew me away. Even at 1440p. I am stumped.
