Well, no, he didn’t. To be accurate he said the sales numbers give gamers no benefit. Which might imply the in game stats MS provided does benefit gamers, if you want to read it that way, or it could mean he thinks they provide more of a benefit than sales numbers. At which point it’s just your opinion versus his. Idk about benefits, but as someone who doesn’t own stock in the developer, they’re certainly more interesting imho than sales.
Also, this idea that you must care about sales to be posting here is complete nonsense. For starters, VGC numbers haven’t been taken seriously in forever. I joined before this current gen started and people were already disregarding VGC. Also, the forum has a sales discussion section. It’s a completely different section than the gaming forums. You’d have a point if this thread were in the sales discussion or was an actual sales thread, but otherwise maybe you shouldn’t be telling people what they should care about because they post here. It’s even weirder when you consider this is a thread about a Microsoft published title you’ll likely never play.
As someone who has 30 hours in the game thus far, yeah, it IS interesting to read about how many zombies have been killed, and other stats. It’s just PR fluff. Go have a Coke and a smile and try not to take it so seriously :)
