    Patient gamers being patient. Good on em. It’ll get finished right about the time they drop the price.

      If they’re going to force PC players to wait years before the game is available, don’t be surprised when they wait a few more years.

        Doesn’t bother me much. I have plenty of other games to play and the best experience and performance comes long after release. I only get to play a game for the first time once, and I value that over following a hype cycle.

    Maybe it’s not as good a match for PC gamer demographics as their other games?

      I think it’s just a bad price. You can get it for $40 or so new for PS5, it was released 2 years ago, and it’s a short game (like 15 hours), yet they’re charging $60 on PC. It should have launched at $40.

        Iirc it was also one of the larger releases for that new platform that was desperate for the sort of experience that can shift consoles.

        I wonder how many people have already played it on PS5 and just aren’t interested in a second go around.

          This. I have played through the game twice on PS5 and as much as I love R&C I’m not buying it full price a second time. Had they released any of the older games ramastered on PC (think MCC) it would have been an instant purchase

      It seems right up my ally to me like with Kena, but that game was 20 compared to 60.

    The game’s original hype stemmed from it being a technical showcase for the PS5. Not exactly a selling point for the already more-powerful PC world. They also didn’t bother porting the previous game to PC before porting the sequel.

      It’s the first game to actually use DirectStorage for something useful (that might be impossible without it), so I think it counts as a showcase on PC as well.

    I already paid full price on PS5… I got BG3 coming out soon. I can wait for this to go on a good sale before picking it up. But I will be picking it up.

    I have had every playstation except for ps5 and I have never played a rachet and clank game. I don’t intend to change that. The bits and pieces I’ve seen of the more recent stuff carries a bit too much of that deviantart furry aesthetic for me anyways. Timberborne is probably as furry as I’ll ever be comfortable with.
