Why was Microsoft expecting 10m Game Pass subs for PC at that period in time.

Listen you want those numbers you either had to have massively improved Windows Store or released Game Pass on Steam.

I don't know why it's a difficult concept for Microsoft to accept that a lot of people don't want to use Windows Store, sure the PC App has improved a lot lately but it may be too little, too late and PC Gamers are entrenched in Steam so I don't think they could ever expect huge PC numbers unless they get a Game Pass model on Steam.

A big part of the problem, aside from the Xbox App/Windows Store being useless for so long, is that there's only Game Pass games on the storefront. You're not going to be finding your Apex Legends, Elden Ring, GTAV, Rust, Rainbow Six Siege, CP2077, FIFA, etc. on the Windows Store. If a game isn't on PC Game Pass, then you're not going to find it on the Windows Store. ABK will definitely help quite a bit in that regard though. 

One of the few exceptions ironically was Forspoken

Honestly, I fully believe that even if Windows Store was brilliant and had all the games, that most Steam users would still ignore it, Lol.

I think Game Pass PC needs Steam...Tbh. But maybe I'm wrong and overestimating Steam's dominance.
