Why don't people play games on Xbox?

>>712801872 (OP)
because only 8 people worldwide have an xbox

they do, xvi isn't a game however

The game is priced at $90 on the Xbox online store in my country.

Maybe sell it at $20 instead next time and I might consider buying it.
Games shouldn't cost much more than a DVD movie. Especially not the games that failed hard to live up to the hype.

The last Xbox owners were brainwashed into not paying for games.
Steam and Playstation are carrying the sales.

Because they still price out the DLC for maxium goyim gains and really don't understand the climate where their games are entertainment meant to be consumed as soon as possible, which most people did via very delayed PS5 / PC launch or via social media. I would have loved to have had this and FF7 years ago on my Series X, but the best they get now is me buying them cheap as game keys for my PC since I ultimately sold my Xbox for a Switch 2.

Xbox gives off big Sega energy nowadays since "everything is an Xbox" when there's no real identity compared to the 360 or OG Xbox days, and that's pretty bad to be honest.

A movie gives you 3 hours of entertainment tops
A movie game easily gives you 20 at the very least
It should cost way more than $90

It’s a shadowdropped 2 year old game. The majority of hardcore FF fans have already played it on PS5 or pc. I’m personally excited to play it on Xbox but I want to get through some of the previous games first so it’s on hold until then

the "people" left on xbox are weird normalfag boomers that mostly play multi-plats.

Most people don't play the games they buy for more than an hour max. Many end up never even booting them up. Sure, you can 'theoretically' play a game for a hundred hours. Just as you can 'theoretically' watch the same movie hundreds of times. As I have watched the Lord of the Rings trilogy. But that shouldn't determine the price.

>xbox was never a jap games machine
>player base doesnt buy jap game
Square should spare their pennies and not port to that shit console

>>712801872 (OP)
They do play games on xbox game pass.
People are retarded enough to buy games on the xbox instead of just subbing to gamepass?

>>712805612
>They do play
>#431 most-PLAYED charts
they clearly don't

I play a lot of games on my Xbox
I just don't pay for bad ones lol

>>712805842
XVI isn't on gamepass

>>712805842
For XVI to be #431 there must necessarily be 430 other games that people are playing more of than that.

>>712805917
Do Xbox owners really only care about subscription models and no longer buy games? If that's really the case, why not just buy a PC and pirate the games?

>>712801872 (OP)
It's a shadowdropped port, years later than the original launch date at full price, and not even on game pass
This was a suicidally bad launch

>>712806024
What xbox owners?

>>712801872 (OP)
don't really know what square expected here

there is no audience for jrpgs on xbox anymore and the current xbox fags don't even buy games

>>712806024
I have a pc and I have gamepass
It's an incredibly good deal because of the huge amounts of games I can play
It's the only time I play games on day one
Between steam sales and family sharing, epic game free games, gog free games and sales, and game pass I just don't pay much money for games
Why should I? I have hundreds of games in my backlog already

>>712801872 (OP)
>late port
>it apparently wasn’t a good game
>they want full price for it
>microsoft killed all consumer trust in the brand when they started porting shit to playstation. Doubly so now that Gears and Halo are going that way. Why would anyone invest in a digital ecosystem when they’re doing shit like that.

>>712801872 (OP)
People who played on Xbox switched to PC and Playstation, they keep buying new games. Full price

>>712801872 (OP)
They should've gone for a game pass deal, that's the only way to get xbox cucks to play your game these days and they would've gotten a nice stipend from MS to boot.

>>712801872 (OP)
The port came out after E33. Devil may cry clones pretending to be final fantasy are no longer acceptable.

>>712806349
That's not true
Persona 3 Reload was in the top 20
Expedition 33 was in the top 10
Elden Ring Nightreign is in the top 20 too
It's just a bad strategy

>>712801872 (OP)
It's a movie game that's been out for 2 years on PS5 that people have already watched Streamers play if they had any interest in the game.
The gameplay and rpg mechanics are completely barebones and not good enough to carry the game.

It's heartbreaking that such a great game can flop on two distinct platforms.

>>712801872 (OP)
Because I play on PC.
360/PS3 era was the last decent gen. If you didn't smell the bullshit coming from lightyears away when those consoles were nearing their end and they announced the Xbone/PS4 and didn't switch to PC you're an ultra retard.

every fucking time with these accounts and threads

>>712801872 (OP)
>Why didn't anyone play this two year old game that's either forgotten or gets shit on

It's a mystery.

>>712803362
I've watched RE movies about 13 times each now, the earlier ones a bit more.

>>712808497
Ok, but was he wrong?

>>712801872 (OP)
Because they should have put in on Game Pass
You think Xbox players will gobble up years old trash for full price?
They should've released it when it came out
That's all

>>712808736
>Comparing a 1 hour 30 minute movie to a 60 hour movie game
I can see why you would compare them, it's the same genre after all both being movies but people aren't going to rewatch 24 hours worth of cutscenes after they've done it once.
There's a reason songs are as short as they are because they're easily digestible pieces of media that are instantly accessible, you longer you make a piece of media be it a movie, a game, a book, a song and the more difficult it becomes to sell and the more exceptional it needs to be and FF16 is not exceptional.

>#2 Best Sellers
>censored DEMAKE Tranny Enix game with ugly cheap smoothing filter
Bruh Normies are so braindead

Americans dont play character action games. They dont have the brain for strings and combos and get mad when a constant D ranking score is on the screen. Its also the only place left on earth where people play games on an xbox. No shit it did badly.

>>712802964
and anti sony pcücks who want a console to play with friends with

A late part for a bad game on a console nobody cares about after zero advertising
Yep, it's square enix burning again

>>712801872 (OP)
>shadow dropped
they showed a trailer for the xbox port how is that shadow dropping

>>712801872 (OP)
We need another Tifa in the next ff game

>>712802649
ff16 gives exactly zero hours of entertainment

>>712807970
But Paper Mario clones pretending to be Final Fantasy are?
