I wonder if those numbers have anything to do with the fact that Payday 2 is pretty regularly on sale for like $2,for a mature game, while Payday 3 is $40 for what is essentially a public beta based on the amount of things they're having to fix/change/update.
Nah payday 3 flopped. They had stupid decisions that are fundamentally ruining the game and got rid of the people buying in early. It's also unfinished as you mentioned. Can't fully stealth heists - which a lot of people do in Payday 2 - the assassin gameplay and stealth are simple and really fun (when they work). The initial levelling system was bonkers.
It deserved what it got
