GAME IS NOT SELLING WELL BEACUSE PC PLAYERS DO NOT BUY GAMES

[qrx]

ONLY 8600 PALYERS AT PEAK? HOW POORLY
THIS IS WHY ROCKSTAR IGNORES PC "GAMERS", YOU DON'T BUY GAMES YOU ONLY PIRATE
ENJOY GTA 6 IN 2028!!!!!!

If anything, PC gamers spend sensibly. We aren't constrained by greedy publishers and forced to purchase our games from one market place. Many of us will wait until this near 15 year old game isn't priced like a 15 month old game.

Now run along to your console and try not to mash the buttons.

Nice bite
But... This game were released too late. You can play in it with a PS3 or Xbox 360 emulator. Why do we need this game after that? Especially with barelly noticable changes. At least game not bugged and well optimized. For 5$ - yes, for 50$ - no lol

[sBuckler]

LOL. Rockstar has been the "pioneer" when it comes to making the PC players double/triple/quadruple dip with their intentionally staggered/delayed releases. Ignores PC players for 14-ish years, has the gall to charge $50, forces to use the Rockstar client, and we're supposed to line up and consume? F that.

Given how everything is censored these days - remaster or not, I'm not pulling the trigger until I know it's in the clear.

Nice bait post. I like the ALL CAPS too like that won't be annoying. Yeah people pirate games. But they only pirate games because corporations take our money, proceed to tell us we don't own our digital games and that they can remove a game from our libraries at any time. And thats it? No refund or anything? Talk about anti-consumerism.

That's what you get with an all white straight cast that's as exciting as unseasoned chicken. A ROCKSTAR game with less than 10k players, lmao.

[Pampy]

most sales come from PC.

Maybe this guy is a little too angry, but he's spitting facts.

Very pricey game yeah.

[Joe Cool]

I'd wager it's due to 2 main reasons.

The first as has already been stated, a $50 price tag for such an old game is a blatant cash grab and a ripoff. Especially since you can pick this game up for like $10-$20 if you have the console to play it on.

The second is that a LOT of Rockstar fans (including myself) do not want to support Rockstar anymore at all. They promised single player DLC for GTAV and then scrapped that to push gimmicky weaponized vehicles to sell ridiculously overpriced shark cards. (that players only buy in order to acquire the so called "free" content - it's such a genius scam)

In addition they force you to have internet access to even play the games you purchased in offline mode. If you lose your internet connection for whatever reason, you cannot launch RDR2 because the Rockstar launcher has to "verify the purchase" literally every single time you launch the game. It doesn't matter that you've launched it 200 times on the same PC, it has to "verify" the purchase again.

Thus as someone who has desperately wanted RDR on PC for a decade, I will not be buying it unless it drops to around $10 or less. I would happily fork over $50 if none of that money went to Rockstar games or TakeTwo interactive.

At no point did he even remotely promote piracy. He simply said that they ignore PC gamers because PC gamers can pirate games.

Perhaps you should be reported for abusing the report feature.

I've been waiting for this day ever since the steam deck came out. But with Rockstar's price and most importantly, 3rd party account requirement, i am probably going to pass too. I am sick and tired of this predatory behavior by AAA publishers.

[cheiften98]

obviously a bait post. im waiting for a sale and benchmarks, seems like it will run well on my 1070. GTA trilogy went 50% off pretty soon after releasing on steam so im waiting a little bit longer.

[Squiggle Cheeks]

I think i am still going to pass. 3rd party account is the deal breaker.

[bober kurwa]

or because i already played this game like 12 years ago, its overpriced and multiplayer for gta5 and rdr2 have both been terrible. just another cashgrab i'd imagine like everything they develop for multiplayer

[Zero McDol]

So basically, you're complaining that no one is buying the game -> while also not buying the game yourself.

Well, enjoy that OP.
