People go from Console to PC all the time.  GTA V, RDR 2, Monster hunter etc.

I suspect not many would actually go PC to Console. By that I mean buying the PC version. Completing it. Then getting it for console the next year.

So in theory releasing for the PC could hurt sales.  No clue if that is actually true - but it is the first thing I thought.

Yeah, that would mean PC versions get delayed in order to force people to doubledip. The thing is though, that CDPR has never been that sort of company. They run GoG for christ's sake! They are currently the most honest western developer. Maybe even the most honest and fair developer period. 

And not many people double dip, on top of that, how on earth does this multiplatform game selling on PC first "hurt sales" exactly?. It's their game and they are selling it on multiple stores, as well as their own (GoG). We see many games releasing on PC first (like indie's and MMO's for some examples) and yet sales aren't "hurt" there. There are people excited for TemTem, but are waiting for a Switch version, and people like me who wait for a PC version of a game down the road. 

Getting people to double dip like Capcom is scummy though.
