Meanwhile, I specifically said I wasn’t likely to play any Civilization titles, and then I played them all in 2023. I mean, I was pretty darn sure I would play Diablo IV, then didn’t bother. I suppose the variation from my expectations set out in a post a year ago is the most notable aspect of this. The only thing I would dispute would be World of Warcraft, as time with that was barely anything like “playing,” I was generally logging in to collect some mount or pet reward for simply being subscribed, but in August when I logged in the game tried to give me some new gear and that turned into such a fiasco that it was my peak play time, so I made the mark for the year there. I also decided, in the name of clarity and laziness, to lump all the Civilization titles up into one row, as that was all part of the same experiment last April. The chart shows I played EVE Online and WoW Classic pretty much all year long. Most of those titles were a couple of weeks… or days, really… within a given month. Everything past the top two is just kind of details. Also, I don’t play as many different titles. I do not go as crazy with that chart as Belghast or Naithin, mostly because I am not sure that much detail adds anything to my own story. On to 2024… and the Steam Summer Sale in six months! Another Steam Winter Sale is in the rear view mirror. My own resolution, 3440×1440, at least made the top ten.Īnd so it goes. Do I need to stop harping on that? Maybe. Anyway, Standing Stone is going to look at that number and push out 4K monitor support for LOTRO by another five years I bet. Even my work gave me a bigger monitor for my laptop dock. One the down side, that resolution still represents almost 60% of users. On the bright side, 1920×1080 is down from 65% of systems surveyed last year. I’ve pulled out the top ten resolutions from the survey. That is probably why Arch Linux is the most used flavor.Īs one expects, nVidia remained the top GPU while Intel was the majority of CPUs and Oculus dominates the VR headset numbers.įinally, the one that always surprises me a bit, the monitor sizes. That Linux clocked in at 1.97%, while MacOS fell to 1.63% is somewhat interesting, though it is helped along by the fact that the Steam Deck is a Linux device. Some things are no surprise, such as Windows representing 96.04% of Steam users. I always like to look at the Steam Hardware Survey around this time of year to see where my system falls compared to Steam users. This year saw Baldur’s Gate 3 win Game of the Year, in a surprise to just about nobody I expect. Meanwhile, we also got the results of the Steam Awards, the user nominated and voted on contest run by Steam along with the Winter Sale. Now to see what becomes of those titles in the coming year. We share Steam libraries, but if our group puts up another world I want to be able to play at the same time. Lots of demolition derby-style car antics with the usual upgrades, customization, and career path options.Īlso, I bought our daughter a copy of Valheim in the last two minutes of the sale. Wasn’t even on my wishlist, I just found it by accident and grabbed it. WreckfestĪ complete last minute impulse buy. I also considered Lethal Company and Don’t Starve Together, if I need to reinforce the theme, but I figured four titles to try out was enough. I have not launched this one yet, but it is a open world base building survival title with co-op support, only this time you’re trying to rescue somebody on an island full of cannibals, so it is more survival-horror.
