No Starfield Direct announcement, I think some of you aren't praying hard enough to Godd Howard.



...to avoid getting banned for inactivity, I may have to resort to comments that are of a lower overall quality and or beneath my moral standards.

After seeing the gameplay of Suicide Squad and then confirming that it’s a GaS game I can see why the founders of Rocksteady are leaving, WB have cancelled many of their projects which is why they have taken so long to release a game after Arkham Knight so no doubt that they were frustrated.

Even Microsoft's first party studio can't get split screen coop running for a certain lego game, so not surprising that third party devs struggle as well.

That is very good considering it has only been out for a few days. To compare to some of Xbox's other day one Gamepass games, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd party:

  • Ni No Kuni- 22k
  • Afterparty- 32k
  • Hello Neighbor 2- 44k
  • Planet Coaster- 45k
  • Worms Rumble- 46k
  • Persona 5- 54k
  • Wasteland 3- 61k
  • Scorn- 64k
  • MLB The Show 22- 66k
  • As Dusk Falls- 66k
  • Octopath Traveler- 67k
  • Dragon Quest 11- 77k
  • Bleeding Edge- 77k
  • Hotshot Racing- 79k
  • Neon Abyss- 79k
  • Call of the Sea- 84k
  • Undertale- 91k
  • Two Point Hospital- 91k
  • Twelve Minutes- 92k
  • Sniper Elite 5- 92k
  • Atomic Heart- 94k
  • MLB The Show 21- 95k
  • Aragami 2- 96k
  • art of rally- 97k
  • HiFi Rush- 99k
  • The Gunk- 100k
  • Age of Empires 2 DE- 101k
  • New Super Lucky's Tale- 102k
  • Second Extinction- 107k
  • Moving Out- 107k
  • A Plague Tale: Requiem- 110k
  • The Medium- 121k
  • My Friend Pedro- 122k
  • Gears Tactics- 125k
  • Hades- 127k
  • Blair Witch- 131k
  • Tetris Effect Connected- 137k
  • Battletoads- 140k
  • Streets of Rage 4- 149k
  • Psychonauts 2- 150k
  • MS Flight Sim- 152k
  • Ori and the Will of the Wisps- 155k
  • The Ascent- 161k
  • Grounded- 177k
  • TMNT Shredder's Revenge- 181k
  • Crackdown 3- 190k
  • Outriders- 233k
  • Golf With Your Friends- 247k
  • Back 4 Blood- 296k
  • The Outer Worlds- 309k
  • State of Decay 2- 379k

Based on the way it is tracking currently after just 3 days, I'd guess that Atomic Heart will eventually land somewhere between Crackdown 3 and Outriders most likely.

Octopath Traveler having more tracked users than Persona 5 is something I totally haven't expected. And that's with all the marketing effort that Microsoft has made for P5 release.

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.

Microsoft declined to share the total number of subscribers in any market but says Game Pass membership in Vietnam doubled in January alone and has doubled over the past two years across Asia, where 80% of the online population plays mobile games.

Mike Rose, founder of game publisher No More Robots, saw the benefits of Game Pass when he put the mountain biking game Descenders on the service in 2019. The game had been available for more than a year, but sales quadrupled soon after he added it to Game Pass. Rose now aims to get all of No More Robots’ games on the service.

Jason Kingsley, chief executive officer of Rebellion Developments, the British maker of zombie and Alien vs. Predator games, says that when he adds titles to Game Pass, many of his company’s other games benefit from a noticeable increase in sales despite not being on the service themselves. Between 20% and 30% of people who play games on Game Pass also purchase additional downloadable content, Kingsley says.
