in all seriousness, what was wrong with it? I played the first two levels without any problems without downloading the patch. Seemed fine to me. Do you think that the sales will go way up now? Cuz I seriously doubt that that was its main problem. People simply saw no reason to buy it. Some hate the reboot and its developers and others liked/loved it but already have the game, so why rebuy it?

For the record, I played and beat the ps3 version when it became available on ps+, but also bought the ps4 version day 1 to support the devlopers for, what I consider, an excellent game that they made.

This is what was wrong wrong with it.  Check out the game before patch and after patch:

The game at release for the PS4 was an absolute mess.

I don't think it stopped people buying it at the start, but it stopped a lot of people buying it as soon as word got out.  Whether this patch is enough to make a difference now or if its too late is a different matter.

Thanks for the info! I had no idea. I still believe that vocal minorities give most of the reason the wrong impression about certain games, but, of course, maybe this wasn't a vocal minority case. I consider myself a well-informed gamer and still didn't know about these problems. I assume that even if it did deter some people from buying it, the numbers were not that great. I doubt all that many people knew about it. It seems to me a case of "no one" cared for the game in the first place rather than issues that the game had pre-patch.
