Hello PC Gaming community.

With this post I kind of want to poll the Steam gamers here; how important are your or your friends’ Steam stats to you?

By that, I mean total playtime, badges, level, number of achievements etc.

For exemple, I have a colleague that keeps boasting about his playtime and expertise on a particular game (which is over 3000 hours). However, whenever I log in Steam, he’s always online running that game (even when he’s actually at work). I have trouble grasping the utility of artificially inflating your numbers if you only played the game for maybe 10% of that amount.

Thanks in advance!

    Oh don’t misunderstand me, I know it’s meaningless.

    I was just wondering why some people are stuffing up their numbers and calling out other gamers for having less expertise than them based on playtime.

    Thanks for your answer!
