Steam is only one portal for buying games on PC, so this doesn't give a true picture of how a game like TW3 is doing on PC. TW3 on PC is definitely doing better than on Xb one once you add all the avenues for buying that game on PC together.
Only six? That's not hard to understand why most companies focus their games on consoles and make bad ports for PC.
Well Witcher 3 for example sold 600k+ units on GOG. Life is Strange has sold more on PC than on consoles, etc. And now with Steam refunds, no bad ports anymore. PC > consoles :)
PC gaming is a niche compared to consoles. That's a known fact. It's only thr deludional PC elites that refuse to acknowledge it.
Well this proves what Ive generally suspected. PC gamers generally dont play the same stuff as console gamers. Also, with the massive userbase of of Steam you would expect better. Witcher 3 is actually doing better on X1 than Steam, I didnt expect that. Pushing that game on consoles was important.
Don't forget that many (like me) would have gotten Witcher 3 from GOG as there were better deals there. CD Projekt does own the service after all.
