I’m not surprised given it’s a ray tracing showcase. I ended up buying it on PC just so I could see what my new computer was capable of.
- Yeah those bathroom mirrors on psycho, raytracing at its finest.
  (Gray non-reflective planes on the wall because they didn't make the third person model properly and wanted to hide it, really shattered the immersion 😅)

I see PS4 isn't represented, probably due to the devs literally advising against buying the base game in the description on the PS store 😂
EDIT: Just checked the app and the advisory message isn't there, but I assure you, it's there when you access the store via a PS4
- Phantom Liberty is not available on "last gen" consoles IIRC, hence the lack of any of them showing.
  
  Just noticed, fucking brutal
- The game was recalled on ps4

The only thing shocking about this graph to me is how few copies were purchased on GOG. I guess I'm in the minority of people who prefer to support their store directly as competition to Steam .
- I stopped buying on GOG when they shifted their stance on DRM suddenly and allowed it into their store.
  Have they changed stances in the last year or two? Maybe, but they already lost my trust with their initial responses.
- I stopped using gog because when I bought the witcher 3 dlc it was only discounted on steam and not gog.

Use that money to pay developers to finish third person mode! We don’t need Witcher like cinematic views, but being able to see V more than just in by beginning and the inventory would mean a lot.
I know that they started work on V facial animations and work was stopped since the facial animations being present in the 3rd person mod on PC in the prologue proves it
Shouldn’t Jali be able to do this easily ??

BuT bUt PEEceE dEaD!!!!11
Can we finally kill off consoles now, please? They haven't been relevant or necessary for 20 years now. There is nothing you can do with the console that can't be done with a PC.
- I really hope that this kind of comment doesn't become common place in this community. It has no place here or anywhere
  
  Because it will kill your fanboyism for your objectively inferior console that should, by all rights, be long since dead and buried because PC gaming does everything infinitely better? Is that why you want truth-tellers like me to disappear? Because I think that's why.
- GTFO with this PC Master Race bullshit
  
  "PC Master Race" is a laughably bad term that should have stayed a one-off joke by a shitty content creator. But tell me one single advantage of a console. You can't. There is none. Price? PCs are a huge range of prices, some much cheaper than consoles. Game prices? LOL, so much cheaper on PC especially with sales. Flexibility? Damn straight. Fuck trying to play an FPS with gamepads, it's terrible and always have been. A vast number of games that is far and away beyond every single console of the last ten years, combined? Yep.
  PCs are superior. Don't call them "master race" because of the shit connotations. But they are superior, and consoles should be dead.
- Lol, imagine saying consoles are not relevant when they keep selling like crazy. Why does it bother you so much? Just let people enjoy their games.
  
  Because I'm from the old days of gaming and watched consoles fade into irrelevancy while their makers basically brainwashed an entire generation into buying garbage. It's basically killed gaming. That's why it bothers me. Gaming is essentially dead from what it used to be and the fact that you and your generation pour money into style over substance garbage is absolutely pathetic.
- When the PS5 released I was contemplating getting a new PC first. Then I saw the crazy GPU prices and shortage. Ps5 was an incredible purchase at the time to play all current games without spending over 1k to do the same on PC. That alone is a huge reason to still go console. That plus the exclusives which were great.
  
  "Play all current games" .... at $60 or more a pop, with no sales. Meanwhile, wait almost no time and see deep discounts on brand new PC games, negating your "price advantage" bullshit. As well as tons of classic games which are far and away better than new style over substance story over gameplay trash games for cheap or even (legally) free. Plus no monthly XPSBox Plus Live Advantage fee to let you do basic things that are taken for granted on PC.
  Console "gamers" are delirious. Wake up and see how infinitely better PC is.
- Lol cry more
- There is nothing you can do with the console that can’t be done with a PC.
  you can tie your games to single platforms in order to punish the poors who can't afford a sonycube and an xboxstation and a nintendyo
