    I feel like this doesn’t account for people who play older games. Like I’m currently playing the God of War reboot. That would count as playing something that’s outside the current top 20, but still very-much AAA.

      I’m currently replaying Horizon: Zero Dawn on my wife’s old GTX 1060 machine. Yeah, it’s kinda janky at times, but it’s still a great game.

      This is revenue. How many people are buying those games now? Older games are also usually heavily discounted so that’s even less money. And if the game was bought second hand then it’s entirely irrelevant.

      Hey, so am I! I was never a big fan of the hack and slash of the original trilogy, but have been loving the axe combat and the Norse mythos.

      I have been playing it on Steam Deck and am quite impressed with it.
