David,

I cannot see any point to this poll whatsoever.  What and who gains from this information? This is not a criticism, I am just curious.

I don't think anyone gains nor loses from this polling information. It's just a survey of consumer behavior and intent for my own curiosity.

You are missing one very important option, which is: No, I have no need to, I have GamePass...

A bit of advice for those who choose the last item.  Forgiveness is easier to get than permission.

The purchase 6-12 months needs a choice of reasons: hardware upgrade, waiting for installation bugs to be resolved, waiting for performance bugs to be resolved, waiting for quality addons, etc. I'm a waiting on installation bugs guy.

I don’t think anyone gains anything from this poll, nor does it really matter,  but it is fun to see the results.

Only bought the game pass for $1 and have suspended future debits.

At this stage I will not be purchasing the sim.  I might come back to it at the start of next year and see if things improve by then however will spend the next 3 weeks trying to enjoy what I can.

I also purchased the Premium Deluxe edition as soon as it became available.  I have no regrets at all, except it won't let me buy anything from within the Marketplace. That's pretty frustrating, but maybe I can save some money because of it.

I haven't tried to buy anything yet from the Marketplace. I'm a little surprised it hasn't been working. I'm sure they'll fix it ASAP.

Luckily i did not spend a single dime on this game. Its a mess

I have spend $1 so far and considering all the negativity I've read, its been suprisingly enjoyable, entertaining and lacking in game breaking bugs.
