You have a biased sample. You're trying to make assumptions about the entire playerbase but only look at numbers for one segment of the player base. If you wanted a truly unbiased sample, you would need a sample of players from each available platform.

What you guys are doing is if I said I interviewed 1000 people in New York and they all agreed on X, but I only talked to people who lived in one specific area.

Yeah because its a very common fact that steam players are different types of human beings than console players or standalone players. (/s)

Please explain to me how console players or standalone players would be any more different than steam players ? I'll wait for your response.
