Hello PC Gaming community.
With this post I kind of want to poll the Steam gamers here; how important are your or your friends’ Steam stats to you?
By that, I mean total playtime, badges, level, number of achievements etc.
For exemple, I have a colleague that keeps boasting about his playtime and expertise on a particular game (which is over 3000 hours). However, whenever I log in Steam, he’s always online running that game (even when he’s actually at work). I have trouble grasping the utility of artificially inflating your numbers if you only played the game for maybe 10% of that amount.
Thanks in advance!
Not a stats guy myself. At most, I get trophies out of something that feels a bit like OCD. Ultimately, I just want to have fun with my games, and not to boast them around. And tbh, one of the reasons I started dropping Steam was precisely the enforced social features.
