minus-squaretomi000@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up43arrow-down1·7 days agoWell they cant say 40M owners because that would be a lie as well.
minus-squareLemmyTellYou@lemmy.cafelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up24·7 days ago“Copies sold” is a much better measure It bugs me when GW2 also does this with “over 12 million players” when actually it’s registered accounts. I know people who have and use multiple POF accounts obtained freely, including a guy who literally has 83 accounts and uses them all every reset.
minus-squarethingsiplay@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 days agoI think they include Game Pass players as well. So it sold probably less then 40 million, therefore they go with the “Players”.
