    Depends, what year are the numbers for? It may not reflect the PC sales from 2014 when it was not on the consoles.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    If I recall VG chartz has some reliability issues, and they rely on retail reporting. I'm not sure how or if they estimate digital sales.

    Proportionally, it could be right, NA PC would be the smallest server pop wise. We are currently down to the fewest PvP campaigns of any server.

    That is just 2015 sales not sales over time and we don't know how accurate it is but bottom line is ESO is still gaining new players as on Xbox the 1-50 zones are still packed.

    Think these numbers accurate?

    Not only is VGChartz notoriously inaccurate, but what it claims to report is only sales of packaged goods in retail stores (does not track digital downloads, sales from Steam or ESO website, etc).

    @IcyDeadPeople ,

    What do you mean by that in rough numbers ?

    That on top of the inaccurate package figures of VGChartz we have to add the downloaded figures ?

We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU

    Yes, that is the working assumption.

    Same thing for me on ps4 Europe compared to my PC Europe account.
    I guess the main reason is that pc has a much higher competition from other games in the same genre.
    Btw it tracks pc since its retail in 2014

    Thanks - I stand corrected! The data appears to be cumulative sales from the launch of each platform until March 5 2016 (click on the platform to see more data).

    I'm one of the 0%! :) My guess is that since the account is the same for PC/Mac, the Mac sales aren't actually broken out separately from PC.

    the main reason is 99% of the PC player have their alts done due to one year of no additional content wich consoles didn´t chared and thus are still alting populating the low lvl areas. in a year console starter areas are as empty as PCs ...
