On Steamcharts, Counterstrike has been the #1 game on Steam every single day I have EVER looked at this site, for at least 3 years now. This top 10 has basically been the same for years... I don't get it. Do people just not play anything else?

Dota, Rust, PUBG, GTA V, Call of Duty, Apex.... Admittedly, Satisfactory is new to the top 10. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege FINALLY fell out of the top 10, adn so did Destiny 2.

It just feels like it never changes, which is crazy.. what happened?

Oh? Warframe is finally off the top 10?

Admittedly, it's probably been off it for awhile. I just haven't really been paying attention to top 10s in a long while.

I wouldn't know. I've never played it. It's not really my kind of game

It spent many years around spot 7. It has since fallen off.

Which is kind of funny because that corresponds inversely with the quality of the game lol. The game director changed and they have been killing it every since

I fell off from the game for a number of reasons back when deimos was released. I went back to it to catch up on quests and a lot of original gripes of why I left in the first place were still firmly in place.

Add Banana too in Top 10 xD.

Is there a way to sort steamcharts by total hours played? Im kinda curious about that stat but i can seem to find a way to sort it on site.

All the games you listed like PUBG and GTA V are more like fads. Sure some lasted longer than others but their popularity dies down. Games like Counter Strike are considered to be more of classics. Especially to the older generation of gamers who grew up on them. These are games that are able to stand the test of time.

When I learned about TacticalOps and Infiltration I started to not understand why people keep playing CS while there are superior games out there. Something is wrong with this world.
