Steam users have spent $19 billion on games they’ve never played
Whether it’s Diablo 4, Cyberpunk 2077, or Red Dead Redemption 2, our collective Steam pile of shame is worth enough to buy a country.
You're viewing a single thread.
They don't have access to price paid tho...
So like, where are they getting the price? A game that was $60 on release 5 years ago might have been bought then or for $5 on a sale.
That's not even getting into Humble Bundles from back in the day.
They don’t list their methodology, so it’s pretty much a made up number.
And yeah, back when you had to add the entire bundle to your account, you’d get a ton of crap bundle games that you’d never play. These days you can generally list the code for others to use.

Guess I'm playing Rise of the Triad now.

Enjoy :D
Thanks for Batman, I’ve never played that one
It's definitely inflated but I'd say the real number has to be at the very least within 10% of that estimate (probably a lot more, but I've seen some AAA games at a 90% discount in the past) which is still in the billions of dollars, which is still kind of nuts
