Interesting to see Starfield selling well despite being slated to go into PC Game Pass on day 1. But I guess a huge RPG that you could play for hundreds, or even thousands, of hours is a strong candidate for owning rather than subscribing to.

only about 25-30 million between xbox and pc have gamepass.

you know gamepass has over 120 million subscribers and that was earlier in the year when they reported it.

WTF! You wrong Man, Gamepass is not at 120M.

Xbox would be industry leader with 120M Gamepass subs. They are, likely, under 40M, last report was something like ~30M.

Right, but new customers can subscribe to Game Pass at any time, and perhaps Starfield is a game that might draw people in?

It seems like you would be less likely to buy GP if you bought Starfield.

Right, that was my point. Here's what I said again: "Interesting to see Starfield selling well despite being slated to go into PC Game Pass on day 1." Meaning there's at least one sign of it selling well, which does suggest many PC users may be favouring buying the game over subscribing to game pass, which I find interesting.
