    its not about steam players being different its about the sample size, steam isn't even 10% of the player base to say that a 60% lose of steam players = how it works with overall with the player base.

    this does not refute what i said. it just says what a sample is. picking and choosing something and saying over and over again you are completely right doesnt make your use of the information wrong.

    You say this because you don't know what sampling bias is.

    Or, rather, you know what it is and why it's an issue here, you just likely don't want to admit it.

    And it shows that on the graph and in the numbers. Read it again. It shows per month.
