Crysis on PC was pirated relentlessly. This is gonna sound harsh, but PC gamers kinda brought the console-ization of the series on themselves, Crytek had to turn to PS3/360 make their money back.


That's BS. CD Project release sno-DRM games on PC and they've done fine with big budget titles. Of course they actually put out great games.

CD Project are a bad example, they make their games on crazy small budgets so don't need to sell that many copies to hit a profit. The Witcher 2 only cost $10 million to make and The Witcher 3 has reportedly cost $15 million (also has a $25 million marketing budget, which i expect they could justify thanks to it releasing across 3 platforms simultaneously this time). For comparison Crysis 3 cost $66 million to develop.

You do have to wonder though, what the fuck are developers spending their money on if CD can pull TW3 off on $15 million?


WoW id Witcher 3 only cost 15 million to develop no other game should ever cost more than like 10 millions. Its a massive game and has been in developmet for at least 3 years now.
