Gamepass has over 20m subs but Forza 5 has only 7m playing. Why hasn’t the game got 20m subs?
Right. These dudes are always trying to use the "sell proportional to the user-base" argument to downplay their 1st party title success. It's ridiculous. If that was the standard then nothing is successful.


I think deep down they know it doesn't make any sense. They have 3 titles represented among some of the biggest IPs out there.

This from the article.

Some caveats: The ranking is based on cumulative hours played across the playerbase, not on total number of players.

This is nine pages of 35 year olds+ arguing over skewed data.

Their brains are turning to mush from following microsofts weird metrics for success since they don’t count sales, or concurrent players, or profit, or really anything significant

So then how many copies of Forza horizon 4 did Microsoft sell. Because you are great with numbers. And then what's 33% of 18?

See, you're great at math and we all know this.

If something cost $1.87 I'm giving the cashier $2.12, that's how my brain operates and I know you're not like that. My beautiful mind sees demons souls in your top 10 which is great, means ppl reality playing that a lot :whew:

But the numbers don't add up and nobody is talking about that :ohhh:

Demons souls didn't sell well to be nice about it. And nobody here talks about playing it still so how does a game that didn't sell well, doesn't have a ton of replay value end up as a top 10 game played on PlayStation?

THE NUMBERS SHOW YOU GUYS DON'T PLAY ANYTHING IF DEMONS SOULS IN YOUR TOP 10 :francis:

You'd think returnal would be on that list since you had to play for 6-8hrs to complete a run. Demons souls likely got so many hours because it was a launch title and people would play it just because it was the one of the few next gen titles to exist. Because how does it beat out other multiplayer games?

Sony gamers don't play games period, they chat in threads about em :picard:
