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

Yeah. RDR2 it's over 34k players on Steam. New, fresh and so desired RDR 1 - 8K with change. It;s freaking flop and I don't care it's at curated "top sellers" list. Sales are not meating their expectations. But how it could, when it's $50 USD in USA and way higher in other places? For Poland it's $56 USD, witch is drug fueld insanity.

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.

Lol, PC games sell well and you know it. From Games, etc
yep PC is a big reason for the bump in popularity of the Yakuza/Like a Dragon games

Yeah, but the Yakuza series usually go on sale often. This game seems like a wait for sale kind of thing.

Because it's BETTER than any 2024 AAA game.
So true, in this era we had so many good games. I miss these times. A few years ago I pre-ordered so many games, but now I mostly play older games because I cant stand these new boring and generic games. So I am happy to pay 50€ for a great game like RDR.

obnoxious, but if true i do kind of agree. 50$ for both RDR and UN on pc is well worth it to finally re-experience my childhood. idk why everyone's trolling, RDR is still a lot of fun.

Haters gon' Hate. Cheapskates gon' cheap. Gamers STILL gon' game.
We never used to know or care about any of this. We just happily played the video games we enjoyed. Or passed on them if we didn't feel they met with our tastes.

Now every single forum has at least one topic per page seemingly fixating on these metrics, even for single player games, whether it's to engage in confirmation bias about a game being a "flop," confirmation bias about a game being a success, or to opine about people not "supporting" a game sufficiently.

And none of it has any contextual meaning anyway outside of those narratives because we can't correlate active players to sales reliably or rigorously without other data, and we can't know what their sales projections were to compare their actual estimated sales against anyway, so there's no reference point to determine what the company in question hoped to hit.

I miss The Before Times. Before sales numbers. Before awards. Before like/dislike ratios. Before active player data. Before social media. Just play the video games you like.

$50 for a 14 year old port. No thanks. I was under the assumption Rockstar was gonna remake it on the RDR2 engine this entire time lol.

That would not be a good thing. The original RDR1 holds up really well and plays in a completely different way compared to RDR2. That original gameplay needs to be preserved. I will be very honest and tell you that I like the gameplay of RDR1 more than RDR2. I'm very happy they remastered and not remade the game, not so happy with the pricing.
