It's not indicative of anything. It is if they do it multiple times over the course of a year. It means that they have trouble building up subscribers. I didn't know that Game Pass is over a year old. It launched in July 2017. They had $1 deals back during last Christmas, and then they had deals of $30 for 6 months that people could buy multiples and stack them. What's happening is that they're losing subscribers. They duped people into paying $1 and they played Sea of Thieves and State of Decay for like 2-3 months, realized there's no reason to keep paying it, and then cancelled their subscription. There's supposedly at least 30 million Xbox One owners, and Microsoft could only say that there was "multiple millions" of Game Pass subscribers during this Xbox event this past weekend. So that means they're not even close to double-digit millions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TLHBO 2,162 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 And lemmings still think its not hobo pass Xbox is the poundworld of the videogame industry. This is the console you buy a 7 year old for spongebob and minecraft, or what the chavs buy for an occasional game of fifa or cod. Playstation is a premium brand. I think this is extremely evident when you compare the first party games across the two consoles. One is for braindead casuals who only want a generic racer every year, the other console is for those with sophisticated tastes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not calling GamePass good or successful. Successful and unsuccessful services alike offer free months to new users. Pointing to a free month (or a deeply discounted one) as indicative of it being successful or unsuccessful is just dumb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You really think Hobo pass will be able to sustain a permanent subscription audience after this ghetto promotion? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,230 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I think their numbers grew during Spring 2018, and they even advertised that alot of people were "playing" Sea of Thieves and State of Decay. And then people started dumping subscriptions during the Summer and Fall. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
