Pretty wild how much they’ve grown in the last few years.

That's pretty damn remarkable. That's about 10% of the United States population, or almost 50% of UK population, currently online, just to put things into perspective.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's people finishing Arcane and going to play League.
You can play league of legends on Steam?I wouldn't be surprised if it's people finishing Arcane and going to play League.
I believe you meant... play some Ruined King: A League of Legends Story™. Amirite?I wouldn't be surprised if it's people finishing Arcane and going to play League.

Sarcasm when you're wrong about something? Summer and winter sales are the largest on the platform, not the ongoing autumn sale which only lasts a week.Lots of people turning on their PCs on a holiday weekend and the biggest sale of the year on the platform.
I bet FH5 and Halo helped.What games are responsible for this?
Last time they gave numbers it was around 120 million. Wouldn't be surprised if its nearing 150M by now.Isnt the active Steam base like 200 million? So that means over 10% of PC gamers are online.
Farming Simulator 22 pushed them to new heights.What games are responsible for this?
None in particular. It's just the thriving PC gaming market. When you realise you can't play League of legends, Warzone, Fortnite, World of warcraft and many others on steam you start to understand how big the PC gaming market is. Even Sony couldn't resist going after it.What games are responsible for this?
There are actually 1bil Steam users (even seen estimates of 2bil), but those are just people who have a Steam account, not active PC gamers. Steam has roughly 120mil 'active' Steam users, meaning monthly users that are playing and buying games. The 200mil number is an estimated number that uses all the launchers together (Epic, Uplay, Origin, Battlenet, etc). Thats why you will often see estimates of '200mil PC gamers'.Isnt the active Steam base like 200 million? So that means over 10% of PC gamers are online.
The usual suspects make up Steam's top games by current player count (Valve publishes official data on this). At the time of this article's publication, eternally popular competitive first-person shooter Counter-Strike: Global Offensive topped the chart with an incredible 849,144 concurrent players. Valve's MOBA, Dota 2, was in second with 663,561 concurrents. Battle royale PUBG was in at third with 241,902. Respawn's Apex Legends and Amazon's New World round out the top five.What games are responsible for this?

Man, minus Halo and New World, if you showed me this list 3 years ago it would have roughly looked the same . I admire some gamers' abilities to never grow tired of a game.Infinite is at no.4 right now with 117k users.

Yeah lol. I think its because a lot of users put Steam in offline mode when they are playing single player games. Thats why Cyberpunk is no.1 on the top sellers chart, but only no.61 on the numbers of ingame users chart with 19k.Man, minus Halo and New World, if you showed me this list 3 years ago it would have roughly looked the same .

The only games there that would have been in the top 10 regularly would be CS:GO, Dota2, Team Fortress 2, and GTA5.Man, minus Halo and New World, if you showed me this list 3 years ago it would have roughly looked the same . I admire some gamers' abilities to never grow tired of a game.
That actually makes a ton of sense as I often do this. I'm such a hopeless introvert lol. I wonder if steam has the offline metrics. I'd be so curious to know. Mine would have like 2000+ hours in warhammer 2 TW, Forza, Mechwarrior 5, Valheim, and No Mans Sky to name a few.Yeah lol.

If you like something, you will play them for a long time. I played Eso more than skyrim. Eso had more fun. SP games sometimes are empty world.Man, minus Halo and New World, if you showed me this list 3 years ago it would have roughly looked the same .

You know, ESO was one of the bigger mmorpgs I didn't try. Friends tried dragging me to FFXIV, WoW, New World, and BDO. Hated the experience of grinding. Only mmorpg I ever had fun in was gw2. Community was so great there. Would you recommend trying ESO. Do you think it stands out differently from other mmorpgs?If you like something, you will play them for a long time.

It stands out, if you like playing solo.You know, ESO was one of the bigger mmorpgs I didn't try. Friends tried dragging me to FFXIV, WoW, New World, and BDO. Hated the experience of grinding.

I don't think a lot of users do switch to offline mode. These top online games have had steady sales for many years and then some have become (or always was free to play so probably won't even count as a purchase anymore. New single play releases will get a spikes at launch and during sales but people don't play right away and people from years ago don't continue to play usually over time whereas you are more likely to find people who bought TF2 or CS:go over 10 years ago who still play today.Yeah lol. I think its because a lot of users put Steam in offline mode when they are playing single player games. Thats why Cyberpunk is no.1 on the top sellers chart, but only no.61 on the numbers of ingame users chart with 19k.
Why are you trying to downplay how popular Halo Infinite is?It wasn't in the top 10 atm
Well I am one of them. F the games keeps pumping good content, then why would I grow tired of it if the base game is awesome?Man, minus Halo and New World, if you showed me this list 3 years ago it would have roughly looked the same . I admire some gamers' abilities to never grow tired of a game.
This is NeoGAF. Challenge Accepted.There's no way to discredit this. I haven't even logged in today either!

What games are responsible for this?
There are thousands of games being played on Steam of many genres.Funny how decades ago, PC gamers would be all about breadth of games.... sports, RPG, strategy games, shooters, RTS etc.... and console games were all about arcadey games and platformers.
