I wonder if this failure is because PC is dead, or, if it's piracy (because all PC gamers are filthy pirates), or, any of the other excuses Cliffy B has used in the past.
Old Cliffy B memes aside... maybe the game doesn't look terribly compelling compared to it's peers.
Make a good game and you can come to my house and kick my dog, and I'll still buy it. My dog is a dick anyway. Don't give me your slightly varied interpretation of the endlessly reiterated with a small change and expect my money.

| Odd - I own Shadow Warrior (2013), but, it does not come up as an eligible title. It did find a few others, so I'm guessing it's just buggy. |

Not like I ever had any intention of ever buying this scheisse, but if I had this alone would have resulted in a lost sale.
After getting a grand total of a week of play out of Titanfall, and now getting further crapped on by Zampella... yeah, I'm with Cutter. There is now less chance than even the previous 0% that I am going to buy this. Thanks for breaking math, Respawn. |

It goes ever farther than that unfortunately - after working for tons of hours, then someone steals it, and because it is not made to work with the consoles for a number of reasons (some technical, some otherwise) you get abuse from console players about a broken game and hate-mail about something that was a total labor of love.
That, I imagine, is going to be a very great source of frustration for the people who work so hard to put something out in a working order on the intended platform.
I certainly wouldn't want to deal with that. |

| I haven't even played much lately (heresy, I know), but I still buy the cosmetic DLC because it's priced well, and it supports a company which is just doing everything right, and with care for the customer. Voting with my wallet goes both ways, and they get my money, no question. |

No fast travel sounds miserable. Fun in theory, but miserable.
This is dead on. The world, while not massive, is just too big to travel back and forth in repeatedly without some sort of fast travel or mount. It may be realistic to walk fifteen minutes out to a quest, to do stuff for five minutes, and then walk fifteen minutes back just to turn in the quest, but that's not going to be a fun half hour of gaming.
Add to that the existance of the Brotherhood of Steel flares, and all you would be doing is taxing fast travel (which is fine, by itself), and telling people who do not want to burn thirty minutes out of every thirty five playing a walking simulator that their only option is to side with the Brotherhood.
That part just isn't good game design. |

As someone with Crossfire 6970's, I'm a bit salty about AMD cutting off new driver releases to their pre-HD7000 cards.I game on one 1080p monitor, and they still get the job done on ultra in most cases.
I know they want people to move up and buy new cards, but you can still get updated Drivers for a 10 year old nVidia card. With some of the problems I had, I was going to go nVidia for my next build anyway, so it didn't really change my buying decision, but it's a bit of a bummer to need to wait out the next gen Titan for likely another year+ with new games being buggy.
The HD 7000 brought new tech, so, I can kind of see why, but, it seems a much shorter lifespan than I had expected. Hearing AMD talk about new tech again makes me wonder if this is going to start to be a recurring theme. |

After buying BF3, with the Premium as soon as it came out, and then, the real lesson, BF4 with Premium, I decided that I was not going to be buying this.
I'm playing other games, having a good time, and not having to put up with being treated like a criminal for being a paying customer.
To be honest, its reaffirmed my decision to stop buying/playing anything from Ubisoft, and EA is officially added to the skip list. If I'm missing something, I'm too busy having fun to notice. |

Rather incorrect - having bought premium for both games, and thus getting insanely burned on BF4, I'm adding DICE to the list of people I refuse to buy anything by/from, with no chance of parole.
They can throw a party with Ubisoft. Last game I ever purchased with their name on it was Far Cry 2 in 2008.

I'll throw down on it, conditionally. If it is as horrible of a port as GTA4 was, I'll skip it without a second thought.
Bought GTA 4 and the Episodes for something like ten bucks on Steam. Had I bought it at full retail, I'd have been quite annoyed. Entirely unplayable on higher-end hardware that didn't even exist when the game launched. I suppose that unplayable is a subjective term, but it certainly met my definition. |

While I wasn't huge on the auction house, it was a necessary evil because of the awful (dare I say, non-existent) lobby system to congregate and trade items in, as well as the removal of the ability to choose a public game you want to choose from a list, ala D2 (I traded tons of items in games named "Tradezzz," back then.
Without a good communication system for trading, of which message boards are not one, the game has essentially become a single player game, with online DRM.
I'm fine with either option, a good AH or a good chat channel and game joining system, but with neither, what renewed interest I had in the title recently is dead. They'll have done the exact opposite of what they intended - killed the ability to exchange items with other players, and essentially made the game more of a solo Skinner Box than it ever could have been otherwise. |

I picked up the game a few sales back, but I was told the scene could be extremely vitriolic, so I never even went online with it. I have too many games left on the backlog to spend time getting yelled at when I'm trying to have fun.
Same reason I won't touch LoL, and the like. |

Didn't play this one because of the mediocre reviews, the horror stories of the PC port (which they openly admit was crap), and, it didn't help that Cliffy B couldn't keep his trap shut and mouthed off specifically at PC gamers.
But hey, piracy. Yeah.
As mentioned before, what's the explanation for the game selling like crap on consoles? Everyone with a PS3 and 360 just build a PC so they could pirate it? |

Awesome news - it's one of the few games I really, really wanted to play, but couldn't because it was console only.
Getting to play it at higher resolutions at a constant 60 fps will make it worth the wait.
Day one buy for me if the port is done well. |
