To be fair, Octopath's first achievement is earlier in the game than Persona 5, in Octopath you only need to scrutinize someone for the first time to get an achievement which you can do within minutes of playing, in Persona 5 I think I heard the first achievement is 2-3 hours into the game, so more people may have tried Persona 5 and then quit without ever unlocking an achievement and being registered as a player on True Achievements, compared to Octopath where people can try it, get an achievement within minutes, and then quit while still being registered as a player on TA. Also Octopath has been on Gamepass for nearly 2 years and is probably leaving Gamepass next month, which will slow it's growth on TA considerably, Persona 5 has only been out for less than 5 months. So Persona 5 could eventually surpass it lifetime possibly, especially if it was a multi-year Gamepass deal and isn't removed after just 1 year. It's also worth noting that Persona 5 has a much higher completion rate than Octopath, there are campaigns in Octopath that as few as 7% of TA users have completed, whereas Persona 5 has a 23% rate of people getting the achievement for seeing the ending, and 10% (5600+ TA users) have got the full 1000 GS, which takes over 100 hours, compared to just 346 TA users getting the full 1000 GS on Octopath. It's also worth noting that Persona 5 has already surpassed most of the Yakuza games from Sega which have been on Gamepass much longer, only Yakuza 0 and Yakuza 7/Like A Dragon are still above Persona 5, and the way Persona 5 is tracking it may eventually pass Like a Dragon. 0 is likely out of reach for Persona 5 though, it has 119k players on TA so far, more than double what Persona 5 has gotten after 4+ months. |
Didn’t know that TA doesn’t track the game until you get at least one achievement.
