A new record has been reached. And I feel like Saubnatica 2 and Forza Horizon 6 are partially responsible for this new peak. I don’t see anyone talking or posting about this new logged in users of Steam.

EDIT SECOND TIME: Today it just got a new record again!:

    First, this is not what you said earlier, its a different statement. Also… where do you get that Valve pays publishers to use Steam as DRM? And therefore forces them a kind of exclusivity deal? No, Valve does not do that.

      They did.

      They don’t need to anymore because they killed the market of physical discs for PC games.

        I ask again: Where did you get that idea from? Any source other than “trust me bro” statement? Valve did not, unless you can proof your extraordinary claim with an extraordinary source.
