    Why does Playstation get a bunch of the dlc's on sale but not Xbox? Seems really unfair considering it's the spring sale. :/

    Because Playstation 5 consoles outsell XBOX by around 8/1, so there are so many more potential customers on Playstation and PC to sell too.

    I think XBOX Series S/X only sold 2 million consoles last year. At least that's what everybody and his dog keeps telling me online.

    EDIT: Here's one of those articles:
    https://tech4gamers.com/xbox-only-2-million-consoles-2024/

    People often say that "XBOX players don't buy games, because they have Game Pass", but that is a complete load of BS.... Nobody is buying a £14.99 Game Pass Ultimate subscription just to play TSW5.

    Because Sony schedules sales more often and more liberally than Microsoft does. They set them, not Dovetail.

    Xbox exclusives games being sold on their rival console should tell you why PlayStation gets more sales.
    PlayStation is the GOAT!

    Nobody tell him that Sony are releasing games on Steam and Nintendo consoles these days. The shock might be too much....

    Not the point I was trying to make, but ok.
    Going back to my point. If Sony were releasing their exclusives on the Xbox, Xbox would have a bigger monopoly of players, meaning more sales. The sales Xbox do get are mostly popular games. I see a lot of DBD add ons on sale in the store quite frequently, never TSW. What does that tell you? TSW player base (on Xbox) is poor.

    Starting to think getting hit by a moving vehicle might be better than being a Xbox player

    my life already sucks and this game keeps making it worse, I only get to see the same 6 trains from where I live in real life and this game was my escape

    To be fair, seeing six different types of train is quite the achievement if you live in the UK.

    All I see is bloody class 66s and 350s in real-life. Seeing a 68 or 88 feels like a lottery win.

    I guess but my city hardly gets rail tours, like I’ve only ever seen one in my life living here

    Well the PS sale was quite selective with many, even older, items not included.

    More than most, people, try living in the south where there’s electrostars all day every day and little to no freight

    There are many other ways to lose yourself in railway forms of media, read railway books, watch videos about all the other types of locomotives your interests seek, just relying on the game for that fix is always going to end in failure, there's a whole railway world beyond the computer screen if you just take a moment and look for it.......
