How many people were aware of that campaign? Maybe in the Witcher/CDPR superfan groups, but on the scale of 12 million copies I can't imagine it budges the number that much.

I don't know why we're only talking about the PC version anyway, there's apparently been 40 million copies sold across all platforms according to a quick Google search, so most people didn't even play on PC.

Because the post I was replying to was about the popularity of The Witcher in the west before The Witcher III, and the first Witcher game was a PC exclusive so there are no console sales to factor in to the comparison.
