Well, it was quite obvious becasue of two reasons: 1. W3 players count was in few thousands (maybe 10 thousands) - so it had mostly hard core fans of the franchise 2. W3 main campain is ~51 hours, and CP2077 has campaing for 25 hours.

And also note, the massive amount of players of CP2077, 3x less is still few orders of magnitude more than W3 had.
