Fake news. Considering pretty much everyone that’s a gamer has at least a game from steam on their system ( hardly got an abundance of choices) and has to have it connected to either update it or read the forums about problems. Either way, there’s millions connected because it’s what happens automatically when you turn on a system. Not because your even doing anything on steam. I can even connect to steam on my phone (account) but I’m not doing anything other than reading replies etc.
How easily amused some people are about their millions of ‘friends’ |

They did not say the 27M users were playing games.
They were just "online".
Nothing more, nothing less.
Considering that there are over a billion users online at any given time, Steam's 27M is nothing.
Not sure why they'd brag about it.
I guess it's one of those "my tiny dick is bigger than your tiny dick" type of things. |

Lots of people game outside of PCs: Android, Apple, PS, XBox, etc.
Lots of people PC game outside of Steam: Origin, GoG, EGS, etc.
Lots of people game on Steam offline and aren't counted among concurrent users. |
