    Tons of people still play Skyrim.

    Something tells me that, in 10 years, few if any will still be playing Starfield.

      I don’t play FO4 anymore either. I will say I appreciate the stories, but their attempts to make games you can live in just don’t measure up anymore. Not when you have games like no man’s land and satisfactory. We know just how comfy a game can be.

        According to SteamDB: [edit:Starfield has] around 10k every day which is about the same as Hogwarts Legacy, Bloons TD6, and No man’s Sky

          Which version is that? The original Skyrim (aka oldrim) isn’t even purchasable on steam and hidden unless you bought it back then. But some people still play that because some old mods only support oldrim.

          Special edition is the main one now. It’s holding 30k very steadily since 2020 https://steamdb.info/app/489830/charts/#breakdown

          Many of modders also moved to gog version, myself included. Because I can permanently version control on gog unlike stream.

            Why? It has one of the biggest modding communities in gaming, so there’s a lot for people to like about it still, assuming they’re fine with modding it.

        I played 100 hours of Starfield. I dont remember much of it to be honest, nor am I interested in going back.

        And yet I picked up Elden Ring back up like half a dozen times since release.
