And they decided to go with the CS due to the overwhelming negative feedback about the Vet System, and the resulting mass exodus.... Of course they never actually finished the CS conversion either.

I have yet to meet anyone under 20 on the ps4 also lf your not aware of the stats for skyrim 86 percent of sales were for the console side. So from a business point of view i would focus on the console release and if it takes off i would slowly kill off the pc side as it requires alot of resources.
By this i would consider everyone using the same hardware over 1000s of different set ups. But that is just me thinking from one point of view so you tell me what would you do in their current position?.
Indeed bud it could also i am a pc gamer but will be going to ps4 for eso and some mates. But do you know why pc players drop like crazy its because most of us have a spare mmo we enjoy in our pocket that we can go back to should the new game we try fails to pull us in. Also after seeing the beta im just blown away by it no joke its just really well done.So all console users are 12 year old children?Psychobunni wrote: »Failure to be competitive with other pc mmo's, so saving it all to sell to 12 year olds on console?

Maybe if they released the game in a playable condition they would probably still have far more PC players than they do now. There are countless millions of PC players, more than consoles, it's not because of the lack of potential playerbase the game did ***.
The reason is PC players won't take this crap and move on to the next MMO, as you can imagine, PC is far more competitive when it comes to choice of games. If you blow it by releasing buggy mess, theres plenty of alternatives for players to go to. If the game was stable, enticing and better advertised, there would be no reason for it to go under.
Great games attract many people, broken ones don't, regardless what platform. If many of the gamebreaking issues transfer to console version, it doesn't matter how many millions of players are on consoles, nobody will want to play broken games, and in return the studio will go under as the so praised console release will not save what is already doomed.
(Not saying it will happen, but it very well might)
