Imagine whining about how people prefer to play good games that work on launch.
Also releasing on PC first is practically unheard of. It's usually the afterthought platform if it gets a release at all.
Yeah, to the OP in the posted tweet... I did put a lot of thought into it. If a game that's just $60 can do this, then all new games are measured against it. Go compete. If your business model is outdated, convince your investors to change or be downgraded to B tier game dev.
