Wasn't even talking about Doom specifically.
Yes, because GamePass is free for all *RollsEyes*
No one knows. If I had to guess, they didn't want to keep 1 small studio in Japan when they barely have a presence there, and they bailed when Mikami bailed. I think it's the dumbest thing MS has ever done, but it's not closed because GP can't pay for their AA games. Or maybe the user metrics on GP were just that bad, and not the actual budget. And they also tried selling it on PS as well. Nakamura also left Tango as well, so I suspect they had issues MS just didn't want to fund. Again, literally the dumbest call they've ever made.
A well reviewed, gameplay heavy, adult focused, traditional single player FPS based on a beloved franchise with no MTX or loot boxes or forced multiplayer sells like shit.
And we wonder why we just keep seeing more GAAS games and Fortnite and Madden every year.
Sounds like it's GP revenue to the rescue again to save a good game, and not the buy to own gamers. You're welcome.
Well, it was the case in point, but at the same time a general observation.My apologies then, the post you were replying to looked like it was still talking about this Doom game.
there - unfixed that for you...Seeing this topic at the top of the page with that "to of" poor grammar bullshit is irking the living fuck out've me.
Someone please fix it for the love've god

yep that moron in chief bet the whole division on a subscription revolution pipedream, which was never gonna pan out.Gamepass has destroyed microsoft and xbox from the inside out. It has completely ruined there gaming business and destroyed the brand. They've let a subscription service force them to go third party. Shits pathetic.
the thing is (& always has been), when you don't have a ongoing game pass sub, this's what game pass actually looks like...effectively paying $12 instead of the $70 US retail price to play the game....

and killed the console in the process of a desperate third party pivot.

It sold like shit cause it was too expensive for the content they provided, and because gamepass has destroyed the sales of almost all of xbox's first party offerings.
So the content was shit? How many sp shooter did you play which were considerably longer?
BS numbers pulled from their ass.It's pretty crazy that PS and Xbox would have the same sales given that Xbox has Gamepass. I'd think Xbox would have the weakest sales for that reason. Of course there could be other aspects at play such as demographics of console buyers, but still.
Yes PC has GP too, but I think you can assume Xbox console users will skew towards the service in a way you can't assume on PC.
their tweet said reached 2M players. that's too damn low alreadyFake, I don't even like doom, didn't buy the game ,but I doubt this is true.
BS numbers pulled from their ass.
I'm not paying $70 for it, most people won't either.
The content wasn't shit, but the game isn't long enough to justify 70 dollars for alot of people and gamepass also cannibalized the sales. I also can't name alot of single player first person only shooters nowadays that do sell well honestly.
There's no evidence of any game reaching that much on Game Pass, in fact, so far Doom TDA seems to be most successful GP releasefor any high profile game on game pass to be considered a sucesss (on Game Pass) it should reach between 5-10M.
AND it should sell copies in the same range. So, between GP and copies sold, the game should reach between 10-20M players. otherwise the game is a comercial flop.
Assimple
as
that
thus, every high profile game relase on GP (by MS) has been a comercial flopThere's no evidence of any game reaching that much on Game Pass, in fact, so far Doom TDA seems to be most successful GP release
Probably, IDK, I don't have numbers and IDK what MS considers a success, unfortunately for haters and fanboys, everything anyone says about it is just fake news and can't be used to brag or shit about Xbox so let's just enjoy games and call it a daythus, every high profile game relase on GP (by MS) has been a comercial flop
that's why each game has its OP Thread. this thread is about copies sold.Probably, IDK, I don't have numbers and IDK what MS considers a success, unfortunately for haters and fanboys, everything anyone says about it is just fake news and can't be used to brag or shit about Xbox so let's just enjoy games and call it a day
Sure, if your looking for something to be negative about and are willing to ignore relevant context. We can all pretend we have insight into what the team consideres success, but they seem to be happy with their first week performance. It would be weird to just hand wave that away.Pausing to say analytic companies are trash, but if anywhere close to accurate based on the 3 million players announcement, this would still be really bad to have 2.2 million out of ~30 million subscribers...
People talk like this is not EXACTLY what MS wants: they want players to move to a subscription based model. The price rises, Nintendo being Nintendo and Sony burning money in stupid GaaS is just leaving them with clean roads.
This shows that people are WILLING to switch (badum-tss) to GamePass. This is wonderful news for them.
Oblivion remaster most played in first week this year - 4 million first weekThere's no evidence of any game reaching that much on Game Pass, in fact, so far Doom TDA seems to be most successful GP release
Most people commenting have not played the game(I realise you have), its is actually pretty good. 1886 was not.You know what this game reminds me of history wise based off of everyone's comments?
The Order 1886. Short campaign , no MP, no replay value, full price ask, etc. Lots of hype prior, then bam; flops.

There will be only a handful of games that ever has the clout to potentially reach all 30 million subscribers, or even a third of that number. Especially considering the limited reach that the new Doom games seem to have and the lack of FOMO due to the recent Doom games being primarily consumed as a single player experience. Not to mention the higher than normal PC requirements.
All in all, you are entitled to have whatever opinion you hold, but I can't behind your assertion that these numbers are "really bad".
Starfield?There's no evidence of any game reaching that much on Game Pass, in fact, so far Doom TDA seems to be most successful GP release
Damn. I like both dark ages and the order.Most people commenting have not played the game(I realise you have), its is actually pretty good. 1886 was not.
What's that? Is it a popular mod?Enteral
On the phone travelling lol.What's that? Is it a popular mod?
Lol I am super familiar with phone posting and what it does.On the phone travelling lol.
Every Doom game is different.Make a different game each time, or accept the game selling less and less with each iteration.
