Before you start making plans to evict your current rig, I want to explain how the Steam Hardware Survey actually works. Rather than representing every player that uses the storefront, the monthly census instead uses a small percentage of participants who’ve opted in as a sample. It’s anything but representative of all 154 million active users, meaning the statistic above isn’t an absolute.
Does the author know how *survey sample sizes work?
Do I?
Is it because it’s opt in or opt out?
Also steam has a massive library that PlayStation just doesn’t have, the first game in my steam library is Fallout: New Vegas which I got in 2012 meanwhile the oldest game in my steam library is Wasteland which I believe realized in 1988. That alone gives steam a massive advantage since you can’t really do that on console without some series modding.
