I'm in a similar boat. I think it's a function of most of the steam audience doesn't use PC games as their primary downtime activity and of the people who do, most of them play a much smaller number of games total. So, if you happen to approach video games differently than average, your stats will be skewed compared to the average.

I'd like if they had a separate pool that compared just your friends to yourself. This would still be unbalanced for some, but it would give a much better point of comparison with people more likely to play as much as you. I can go look at other friends stats one by one, but having an automatic aggregate of your friends would be neat. Especially with a direct graph comparison between 'all' and 'friends', it would almost feel like a team effort, lol.

57 games played, 21 fewer than last year (what kinda crack was I on then?)
817 achievements, 4 fewer than last year (I couldn't plan that level of precision if I tried).
60% of my time was on Deck versus desktop, but 50/50 split in terms of game count -- most games I played on both, and apparently a similar number exclusive to each. I haven't had the energy to game on my desktop this year.
Most played games include Skyrim, Kingdom Hearts, Cyberpunk 2077, Dragon's Dogma 2, Cassette Beasts, and Where Winds Meet. Many of my games were sub 20hr experiences.
Additional shout-outs for Dispatch, Straftat, Great God Grove, Dungeons of Hinterberg, HASTE, Children of Morta, Severed Steel, and Metal Bringers. CrossCode too but I mostly played that last year and just haven't gotten to the DLC. I forget if Infinity Nikki was more this year or last, that was non-steam so not counted in replay.
And of course this doesn't count the untold hours I spent playing Net Driver on my phone or chatting about it on discord or cracking its formulas or making my sites... That one probably takes the ultimate cake in 2025.

My review is always ruined because I need to work on games in development as part of my job. So I get Steam codes for games I would usually have no interest in playing. Steam thinks I'm into all kinds of genres that I'm really not.
This reminds me of that year when my home music server went on a U2 bender for a good week and totally messed up my Spotify wrap up. And I really really hate U2.

That's funny. At work, my team has a shared "totallynot***" account on Steam, where *** is our company name. (We don't make games, but we do work closely with those who do.)

I don’t want to intimidate Tilderions, but I played 3 games and unlocked 15 achievements. This has to be my lowest amount of game time ever. I’ve been wondering recently why I haven’t made time to play, but I keep coming back to having the feeling there is more important things to do. I’ve got real life achievements to unlock, and many of them. Maybe when that’s all done, I’ll be able to catch up on the great games that need to be explored!
One idea I’ve been toying with is getting a PS Vita and do some gaming on the commute. But I can’t justify getting another console and having to explain to my SO why there is more crap in the house.

I think you're winning the lowest number of games award this year. The Steam median is "4" games played, 11 achievements.
This had been one of my lowest number of hours years, as well as lowest number of games seriously played. 61% of my time was on Rusty's Retirement, a half screen idle played in February. The next highest was for 1000x Resist played all the way through just this week.

The Steam median is "4" games played
Steam average. I wonder if the median is different, and if they willingly chose to show one instead of the other. 4 games is IMO a really low number, I'd like to see more global stats to know who plays what for how long.
(Edit: at least it says "moyenne" ("average") in French, does it say "median" in English?)

I one upped you with a hefty 4 games played, but only 12 achievements. I think this year may have been my lowest ever for how much time I spent on Steam.
Between my laptop having issues caused by a swelling battery, which I took to a shop to replace and some other minor repairs since I didn't want to deal with finding a place to dispose of a swollen battery here, and having less time over all, I just don't feel like doing much gaming. There are tons of games I want to play, but I don't end up actually playing them, since I'd usually rather read a book or spend time with my wife/kids once everything is done for the day.
I hold out some hope for playing a bit more next year, but we'll see how that goes.
51 games played this year, which was actually a lot more than I expected. The top three were: Silksong (unsurprisingly) - with 11% of playtime Supervive with 10% of playtime Cyberpunk 2077 with 5%...
51 games played this year, which was actually a lot more than I expected.
The top three were:
Silksong (unsurprisingly) - with 11% of playtime
Supervive with 10% of playtime
Cyberpunk 2077 with 5% of playtime
Supervive is a game that really resonated with my friend group and we ended up doing weekly play sessions for a couple of months. It's been a while since a game managed to do that, so it pains me a little to see the player numbers continuously drop into what i can only assume is financial unsuitability.
I've been gradually switching to Linux over the last few years, and the Steam Replay is actually a pretty good indicator of how successful I've been in this endeavor.
This year I did 98% of playtime on linux, compared to 2% back in 2022.
JC's Steam Replay 2025 63 games played on Steam. Which is 19 more than last year. 337 Achievements Unlocked. Which is 185 more than last year. I even 100%'d some games this year; for the first...
And, contrary to public opinion, my top is genre is NOT Detective games! It's JRPGs, followed by City Builders, then Colony Sims, then Detective games.
Surprisingly...49% KB&M vs 51% Controller! Is this sessions? Games? Either way, did not expect that as I've always considered myself a "proper" PC Gamer with KB&M superiority. Yet, controller just often makes sense, especially when playing from the couch. Hell, sometimes I'm at my desk and computer, but playing on my Steam Deck via controller. *shrug*
Big change from last year is that I only spent 4% of my playtime was on 2025 new games. Last year was 44% of playtime on 2024 new releases. But last year was an outlier, because in 2023, it was only 7% on 2023 new releases.
If I had to guess what game I played the most this year, it's probably FFXIV again. I don't use the Steam-associated client, so I don't have a means of easily measuring playtime. Which is probably a good thing.
I spent a lot less time gaming this year, but still a lot! https://s.team/y25/jnbgttm?l=english Did I only play 130 hours of Monster Hunter Wilds this year? Yes. 95 hours in Megabonk as well. I...
Did I only play 130 hours of Monster Hunter Wilds this year? Yes. 95 hours in Megabonk as well. I think I'm slowly slipping into the "play one game for longer" kinda mentality now, but maybe I should work on my backlog and join the backlog burner event some time!
My most played game was a Tildes recommendation! I can't remember who brought up Proverbs here, but thank you to whoever did - it became my go-to relaxation game for a couple months.

@vicvision and @Requirement talked it up in last December’s hidden gems topic. I played it based on their recommendations and also loved it! It was #4 on my Steam Replay.

Where two people poop out of the same window lol
but I only play on Deck when I sit down with it, so, very very little playtime
If you need another recommendation: They just released Mosaic of the Strange! Same developer, similar puzzles, new twist to it by having something of a narrative. Very good so far!

My recap in brief:
73 Games Played (19 fewer than last year)
41 New games
409 achievements (17 more)
147 day streak
The streak surprised me, though I do have a tendency to just get up and leave games open, so I wonder if that's why.
My most played games in order:
Monster Train 2
Stardew Valley
Monster Train 1
Satisfactory
Slay the Spire
I spent 22% of my gaming time in new releases? I guess Monster Train 2 released this year, though I picked it up in August.
I did not play Slay the Spire in August at all although I did play it at least once in every other month. Next most monthly consistent game was Tabletop Simulator, which I played 10/12 months (missed June and November).
24 games played this year (23 less than last year). 154 achievements (37 less than last year), with the most of being from my #1 game. Top 3 Warframe (64% of playtime), got back into this after...
24 games played this year (23 less than last year).
154 achievements (37 less than last year), with the most of being from my #1 game.
Top 3
Warframe (64% of playtime), got back into this after leaving it in 2016 around the time that Plains of Eidolon had came out. Got back into it because I was looking to play the Last Descendant, saw a review to play Warframe instead, glad that I listened to it. Really liked the fact that I had started playing it again before they had buffed my main in the game.
Peglin (14% of playtime), got this as a gift for my birthday and it is great for something that doesn't take too long for play sessions.
Space Engineers (12% of playtime), a fun sandbox game that I got years ago, started playing it again because of a Australian YouTuber and remembering that I owned the game.
Honorable Mentions
Dwarf Fortress - I really need to play some more of this game, I really liked once I understood what was happening and how to set up things.
Terraria - I would not have played it solo or liked if I had played through it solo, but I played it with my younger siblings, so it was more enjoyable that way.
Nothing too crazy for me. 29 games played (5 more than last year) 199 achievements (56 fewer than last year) 75/25 split between keyboard & mouse vs controller Outside of using Fantasy Grounds,...
Nothing too crazy for me.
29 games played (5 more than last year)
199 achievements (56 fewer than last year)
75/25 split between keyboard & mouse vs controller
Outside of using Fantasy Grounds, top games played were Hi-Fi Rush and Citizen Sleeper.
Otherwise the only stat that really stood out to me is apparently I played nothing via Steam that was released in 2025. All bar one every game played is listed under the "Recent" time frame of released in the last 1-7 years, the outlier being Spec Ops the Line, which I finally got around to playing this year.

I think this is the most interesting part of my page. The coloured bars are single games. The grey bars are multiple games. I just keep bouncing between games until something catches me for a while, it seems.

445 Achievements, with 146 of them being rare ones. I managed to get 135 more than last year, which was my goal. If I want to beat this years record, I might have to 100% DRG survivor and The binding of Isaac for it.
82% controller to 18% Kb&M, checks out, I play a lot of things with controller, as that's more comfortable for me.
Top 3 games were Helldivers 2 with 33% of game time, ER Nightreign with 13% of game time and Elden Ring with 11% of game time.

My biggest games were:
Elder Scrolls V: Oblivion: Remastered: Had some jank, some issues from the "refresh" but I spent a ton of time just doing as many gates as I could (58) for the MSQ, and will revisit it next year for DLC stuff with another character.
Balatro: Kicked off a roguelite addiction, I've got so many I've played:
Dungeon Clawler (get this one!)
Aotenjo: Infinite Hands: Like Balatro but Mahjong. Great game, once you wrap your head around it.
No Man's Sky: They killed it with the expeditions, I still haven't beat the MSQs yet. 99% of my hours are expeditions, to a tune of 88.
Megabonk: 10-minute 3D Vampire Survivors-style game dropped in September(?) '25. Great game, memey, but solid, addictive gameplay.
Avowed: Dropped, then Oblivion had to go and shadow-drop. I'm back into Avowed as it's a phenomenal game.
My Steam Deck breakdown has me playing a lot of Puyo Puyo Tetris as I go through the story, Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers, Slay the Spire, and Vampire Survivors.
Funnily enough there's a little bit of Umamusme: Pretty Derby which I was curious about and bounced off hard enough I removed it from my library lol.

Played a lot of multiplayer games this year. I rediscovered how much I love MOBAs, which is a shame because sometimes they can be incredibly toxic. MOBA have the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I don't think there are many feelings in gaming that can top being part of an organized team, friends or strangers, and making smart and well executed plays.
Deadlock in particular has been scratching this itch that I didn't know I had. The movement system, the character design, the constant evaluation of the current situation and reasoning about the next move and so much more. It's still a little buggy, but it's also got a lot of Valve polish that folks have come to expect that really make the characters feel alive.

Honorable mentions:

-Skyrim Special Edition, only started this playthrough a couple of weeks ago, so I'm sure it'll top Fallout 4 by year's end
Longest streak: 53 days (hurrah for unemployment!)
Platform playtime: 2% Steam Deck, 98% Desktop
Platform titles: 18 Steam Deck, 38 Desktop
(For some reason, I don't often play games on Deck, but I sure like installing and uninstalling games on it)
56% played with controller, which I assume includes Deck. Baldur's Gate 3 and Satisfactory probably make up the huge majority of KB+M playtime, as I have never strayed far from my console pleb roots and prefer a controller where possible.

Mine is pretty standardish for me but still far over the top of Steam average.
The great thing is that the bar graph representing each month of the year shows how I approach playing games - I tend to play one big game at a time and it takes me sometimes a few months and the bar graph shows when I played which game.
I play only on Linux, mainly on Steam Deck. I have more games played on desktop though, as it works as a sidekick for me - to take a rest from the main game I play at the moment.
Most played games are Horizon Forbidden West (great game!), Kingdom Come: Deliverance (also great!), Midnight Paradise (AVN, I got surprised by this one, it is good), Original War (very unique RTS game), Postal 2 (sometimes you can let off some steam in a game; sometimes it's hilarious) and a few of others.
Next year will be a bit of surprise for me as I don't know yet what I would play. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will likely be there, I want to play some GTA San Andreas (through PS2 emulation on Steam Deck), I'd love to replay Breath of the Wild (through Yuzu emulator on Steam Deck) and maybe give in to American Truck Simulator roleplaying as iconic Rubber Duck (who knows?) as I bought the Ultimate pack. I will likely play some coop games with daughter, I hope Portal 2 and We Were Here and likely some singleplayer logical games like Portal or Talos Principle so I can give her advice if she gets stuck in them. I will likely play a bit of ARMA3 and maybe some other multiplayer games with friends.
So mine is a fun one since I set up the second hand steam deck in the TV room last year. My kid has started to play more on her own and so has my wife. And we're also getting a lot of guests and...
So mine is a fun one since I set up the second hand steam deck in the TV room last year.
My kid has started to play more on her own and so has my wife. And we're also getting a lot of guests and my wife's clients who have kids and it's something for them to do while the adults are busy. Anyone's free to dig into the ever expanding backlog and download/delete whatever they like, so long as they put everything away and don't mess with save files. And it's been a success.
I should probably set up all the family accounts sooner or later to keep stats like this clean and I can see people playing concurrently becoming an issue. But such a wide spread like this feels like I run an arcade.
When I was in "work mode", most of that time was spent with Hades and other Roguelikes. Also tower defence.
My favorite stats are these, where no game got more than 10% playtime.
Also, I'm pretty happy that there doesn't seem to be any AAA in my list and no mtx. You could count Space Marine 2 and a few hours to mop up the last of BG3 but it's not the same.
Anyway, I'm probably not going to have any time till March again and I'm pretty sure next year I'll have far fewer hours to spend on games. But I do think this was a pretty good year for game releases (the state of the industry is a whole different story).

Been looking forward to the Replay 2025 stats, no screenshots since I’m on phone and it’s a big pita to screenshot and upload stuff.
My most played games were:
Outer Wilds at 21% playtime and 104 sessions.
Megaman Network Collection Vol.1 with 14% playtime and 74 sessions.
MMBNLC Vol.2 at 10% Playtime and 57 Sessions, keeping in mind I skipped BN4 for obvious reasons.
225 Achievements, Played 99 games, 24 of which were demso, also don’t ask me how many of those I finished.
I played 77% recent games and 15% classic, leading to a miniscule 8% new releases.
47% Deck playtime, 6% Windows Playtime, 47% Linux playtime, I thought Deck would be higher.
It says 31% of my playtime was on controller but up top it says 22% KB/M and 78% with controller.
I assume the discrepancy is from the SteamDeck.
I had some time that wasn’t registered since I was away from home/net @ working in a remote-ish location and being on vacation, but extrapolating from BNLC2 time, which has 31.4 hours in it, I’d probably have played 314 hours this year on Steam not accounting for lost hours. Marfusha and Snezhinka have way less playtime than I did actually play(Registered in minutes, I played hours). Probably alongside Exit 8 and Platform 8 though these are very short.
Here's mine Nothing particularly crazy except that once again, I have no clue how Warframe became my most-played game. I'm not even playing regularly, but I guess I still just dive into it really...
Nothing particularly crazy except that once again, I have no clue how Warframe became my most-played game. I'm not even playing regularly, but I guess I still just dive into it really seriously for a while and then drop it.
What did intrigue me was my most-played genres: Looter Shooter, Farming Sim, Medieval, and Turn-Based Combat. I wonder what the game would look like that was a combination of all 4 of those...
The one statistic I'm most proud of is my demo plays! I tried 92 demos this year compared to 61 last year. Actually, looking at the statistics is a little confusing - at the top for 2025 and 2024...
The one statistic I'm most proud of is my demo plays! I tried 92 demos this year compared to 61 last year.
Actually, looking at the statistics is a little confusing - at the top for 2025 and 2024 respectively it says 92, 61 and, if I scroll down to the demo section of my replay, it says 88, 57 instead. Is the data pulled at different dates for these separate sections?
At any rate, I tried a lot of new games. Not all of them were great but many were fun. I really enjoy leaving feedback for developers after I try something and do my best to write detailed notes or suggestions. It makes me feel like I'm contributing to something and I always try to be encouraging even if I didn't necessarily enjoy the game.
It's also been really helpful in combating my ADHD - the urge to spend money or play a different game? Just find a new demo to try! They're free and their short nature means I'm not buying anything that I won't finish playing. If I don't like it, nothing but a bit of time was "wasted". And if I did enjoy it? I get something new to add to my wishlist (which has really turned more into a...collection of games I may or may not ultimately buy should they ever go on sale). I would like to start sharing the demos I'm trying with others so that might be on my list to do in 2026. I think everyone should try more things!
I... I don't think mine is anything to brag about. Seeing that I'm orders of magnitude higher on achievements, number of games, streak of days... I think I'm just glad they don't include "hours played" and compared it to other people in this list.
I'm in a similar boat. I think it's a function of most of the steam audience doesn't use PC games as their primary downtime activity and of the people who do, most of them play a much smaller number of games total. So, if you happen to approach video games differently than average, your stats will be skewed compared to the average.
I'd like if they had a separate pool that compared just your friends to yourself. This would still be unbalanced for some, but it would give a much better point of comparison with people more likely to play as much as you. I can go look at other friends stats one by one, but having an automatic aggregate of your friends would be neat. Especially with a direct graph comparison between 'all' and 'friends', it would almost feel like a team effort, lol.
That kind of aggregation and sharing might be difficult with EU data regulations (DMA). They're strict about how data can be collected and shared.
57 games played, 21 fewer than last year (what kinda crack was I on then?)
817 achievements, 4 fewer than last year (I couldn't plan that level of precision if I tried).
60% of my time was on Deck versus desktop, but 50/50 split in terms of game count -- most games I played on both, and apparently a similar number exclusive to each. I haven't had the energy to game on my desktop this year.
Most played games include Skyrim, Kingdom Hearts, Cyberpunk 2077, Dragon's Dogma 2, Cassette Beasts, and Where Winds Meet. Many of my games were sub 20hr experiences.
Additional shout-outs for Dispatch, Straftat, Great God Grove, Dungeons of Hinterberg, HASTE, Children of Morta, Severed Steel, and Metal Bringers. CrossCode too but I mostly played that last year and just haven't gotten to the DLC. I forget if Infinity Nikki was more this year or last, that was non-steam so not counted in replay.
And of course this doesn't count the untold hours I spent playing Net Driver on my phone or chatting about it on discord or cracking its formulas or making my sites... That one probably takes the ultimate cake in 2025.
The Backlog Burner is a hell of a drug. 😁
Clearly you need to get exactly 4 more achievements in the next two weeks to make them match!
My review is always ruined because I need to work on games in development as part of my job. So I get Steam codes for games I would usually have no interest in playing. Steam thinks I'm into all kinds of genres that I'm really not.
This reminds me of that year when my home music server went on a U2 bender for a good week and totally messed up my Spotify wrap up. And I really really hate U2.
yeah, I never let my kids anywhere near my Spotify account for fear of having my Wrapped ruined :)
My YouTube Music wrapped heavily features Nikki Minaj, (who I detest; while her music is ok, she is a terrible person) because she's my oldest daughter's favourite artist. Kind of ruins the wrap for me.
:) personal account vs work account?
I never really thought of that, lol! But I'm drowning in accounts and the Steam Review wasn't a thing back in the day when I first starting working on this job. And now I feel it's too late and probably not worth it.
That's funny. At work, my team has a shared "totallynot***" account on Steam, where *** is our company name.
(We don't make games, but we do work closely with those who do.)
I don’t want to intimidate Tilderions, but I played 3 games and unlocked 15 achievements. This has to be my lowest amount of game time ever. I’ve been wondering recently why I haven’t made time to play, but I keep coming back to having the feeling there is more important things to do. I’ve got real life achievements to unlock, and many of them. Maybe when that’s all done, I’ll be able to catch up on the great games that need to be explored!
One idea I’ve been toying with is getting a PS Vita and do some gaming on the commute. But I can’t justify getting another console and having to explain to my SO why there is more crap in the house.
I think you're winning the lowest number of games award this year. The Steam median is "4" games played, 11 achievements.
This had been one of my lowest number of hours years, as well as lowest number of games seriously played. 61% of my time was on Rusty's Retirement, a half screen idle played in February. The next highest was for 1000x Resist played all the way through just this week.
Steam average. I wonder if the median is different, and if they willingly chose to show one instead of the other. 4 games is IMO a really low number, I'd like to see more global stats to know who plays what for how long.
(Edit: at least it says "moyenne" ("average") in French, does it say "median" in English?)
Yes, English says median.
Judging by at least one of my friends on Steam it might not be far off, they only played football manager all year.
I one upped you with a hefty 4 games played, but only 12 achievements. I think this year may have been my lowest ever for how much time I spent on Steam.
Between my laptop having issues caused by a swelling battery, which I took to a shop to replace and some other minor repairs since I didn't want to deal with finding a place to dispose of a swollen battery here, and having less time over all, I just don't feel like doing much gaming. There are tons of games I want to play, but I don't end up actually playing them, since I'd usually rather read a book or spend time with my wife/kids once everything is done for the day.
I hold out some hope for playing a bit more next year, but we'll see how that goes.
51 games played this year, which was actually a lot more than I expected.
The top three were:
Supervive is a game that really resonated with my friend group and we ended up doing weekly play sessions for a couple of months. It's been a while since a game managed to do that, so it pains me a little to see the player numbers continuously drop into what i can only assume is financial unsuitability.
I've been gradually switching to Linux over the last few years, and the Steam Replay is actually a pretty good indicator of how successful I've been in this endeavor.
This year I did 98% of playtime on linux, compared to 2% back in 2022.

Love the shift to Linux gaming!
JC's Steam Replay 2025
63 games played on Steam. Which is 19 more than last year.
337 Achievements Unlocked. Which is 185 more than last year. I even 100%'d some games this year; for the first time, I think.
Top 3 Games in 2025 were:
And, contrary to public opinion, my top is genre is NOT Detective games! It's JRPGs, followed by City Builders, then Colony Sims, then Detective games.
Surprisingly...49% KB&M vs 51% Controller! Is this sessions? Games? Either way, did not expect that as I've always considered myself a "proper" PC Gamer with KB&M superiority. Yet, controller just often makes sense, especially when playing from the couch. Hell, sometimes I'm at my desk and computer, but playing on my Steam Deck via controller. *shrug*
Big change from last year is that I only spent 4% of my playtime was on 2025 new games. Last year was 44% of playtime on 2024 new releases. But last year was an outlier, because in 2023, it was only 7% on 2023 new releases.
If I had to guess what game I played the most this year, it's probably FFXIV again. I don't use the Steam-associated client, so I don't have a means of easily measuring playtime. Which is probably a good thing.
I spent a lot less time gaming this year, but still a lot!
https://s.team/y25/jnbgttm?l=english
Did I only play 130 hours of Monster Hunter Wilds this year? Yes. 95 hours in Megabonk as well. I think I'm slowly slipping into the "play one game for longer" kinda mentality now, but maybe I should work on my backlog and join the backlog burner event some time!
My most played game was a Tildes recommendation! I can't remember who brought up Proverbs here, but thank you to whoever did - it became my go-to relaxation game for a couple months.
@vicvision and @Requirement talked it up in last December’s hidden gems topic. I played it based on their recommendations and also loved it! It was #4 on my Steam Replay.
I'm something of an evangelist for the game (and developer)! I'm glad there are so many Tildeans playing puzzle games!
I also bought Proverbs on Tildes recommendation :D it's great! I especially enjoyed the goose related proverbs.
there's another funny one
Where two people poop out of the same window lol
but I only play on Deck when I sit down with it, so, very very little playtime
If you need another recommendation: They just released Mosaic of the Strange! Same developer, similar puzzles, new twist to it by having something of a narrative. Very good so far!
My recap in brief:
The streak surprised me, though I do have a tendency to just get up and leave games open, so I wonder if that's why.
My most played games in order:
I spent 22% of my gaming time in new releases? I guess Monster Train 2 released this year, though I picked it up in August.
I did not play Slay the Spire in August at all although I did play it at least once in every other month. Next most monthly consistent game was Tabletop Simulator, which I played 10/12 months (missed June and November).
24 games played this year (23 less than last year).
154 achievements (37 less than last year), with the most of being from my #1 game.

Honorable Mentions
Dwarf Fortress - I really need to play some more of this game, I really liked once I understood what was happening and how to set up things.
Terraria - I would not have played it solo or liked if I had played through it solo, but I played it with my younger siblings, so it was more enjoyable that way.
I also want to get back into dwarf fortress. Haven't even tried adventure mode all this year
Nothing too crazy for me.
Outside of using Fantasy Grounds, top games played were Hi-Fi Rush and Citizen Sleeper.
Otherwise the only stat that really stood out to me is apparently I played nothing via Steam that was released in 2025. All bar one every game played is listed under the "Recent" time frame of released in the last 1-7 years, the outlier being Spec Ops the Line, which I finally got around to playing this year.
77 Games Played
76 New Games
And the one that wasn't new I had first played in December 2024.
555 Achievements Unlocked
59 Rare Achievements

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered = 20% of Play Time
Travellers Rest = 11% of Play Time
Fields of Mistria = 10% of Play Time

I like how May is almost entirely gray.
186 games played, 98 of them new.
1089 achievements.
66 day streak.
I think this is the most interesting part of my page. The coloured bars are single games. The grey bars are multiple games. I just keep bouncing between games until something catches me for a while, it seems.
38 games played, with is 20 more than last year. 18 of these games were new games.
445 Achievements, with 146 of them being rare ones. I managed to get 135 more than last year, which was my goal. If I want to beat this years record, I might have to 100% DRG survivor and The binding of Isaac for it.
82% controller to 18% Kb&M, checks out, I play a lot of things with controller, as that's more comfortable for me.
Top 3 games were Helldivers 2 with 33% of game time, ER Nightreign with 13% of game time and Elden Ring with 11% of game time.
My biggest games were:
Elder Scrolls V: Oblivion: Remastered: Had some jank, some issues from the "refresh" but I spent a ton of time just doing as many gates as I could (58) for the MSQ, and will revisit it next year for DLC stuff with another character.
Balatro: Kicked off a roguelite addiction, I've got so many I've played:
No Man's Sky: They killed it with the expeditions, I still haven't beat the MSQs yet. 99% of my hours are expeditions, to a tune of 88.
Megabonk: 10-minute 3D Vampire Survivors-style game dropped in September(?) '25. Great game, memey, but solid, addictive gameplay.
Avowed: Dropped, then Oblivion had to go and shadow-drop. I'm back into Avowed as it's a phenomenal game.
My Steam Deck breakdown has me playing a lot of Puyo Puyo Tetris as I go through the story, Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers, Slay the Spire, and Vampire Survivors.
Funnily enough there's a little bit of Umamusme: Pretty Derby which I was curious about and bounced off hard enough I removed it from my library lol.
Here's mine I guess.
93 Games this year (Up 62 from last year)
1316 Achievements (Up 1215 from last year)
Top 3 games by playtime:
Assassin's Creed Shadows (88.9 hours, 8% of playtime)
The Legend Of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV (66 hours, 6% of playtime)
The Legend Of Heroes: Trails Into Reverie (65.7 hours, 6% of playtime).
I sure did play a lot of JRPGs this year between finishing Metaphor, replaying Persona 3 Reload, and playing through all of the trails games.
Played a lot of multiplayer games this year. I rediscovered how much I love MOBAs, which is a shame because sometimes they can be incredibly toxic. MOBA have the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I don't think there are many feelings in gaming that can top being part of an organized team, friends or strangers, and making smart and well executed plays.
Deadlock in particular has been scratching this itch that I didn't know I had. The movement system, the character design, the constant evaluation of the current situation and reasoning about the next move and so much more. It's still a little buggy, but it's also got a lot of Valve polish that folks have come to expect that really make the characters feel alive.
Good lord... I'm not the only one at least. 45 games and 463 achievements.
I have to say it's nice because watching this is like making a journey in the past... anyhow.... let's stop talking and let's turn on the PC... ^^
44 games (-27 from last year [‽])
273 achievements (-251 from last year [double ‽])
Top 3:
-Satisfactory (25% of playtime)
-Fallout 4 (16%)
-Forza Horizon 5 (14%)
Honorable mentions:
-Baldur's Gate 3, played online with a friend, just barely got edged out of top three
-Skyrim Special Edition, only started this playthrough a couple of weeks ago, so I'm sure it'll top Fallout 4 by year's end
Longest streak: 53 days (hurrah for unemployment!)
Platform playtime: 2% Steam Deck, 98% Desktop
Platform titles: 18 Steam Deck, 38 Desktop
(For some reason, I don't often play games on Deck, but I sure like installing and uninstalling games on it)
56% played with controller, which I assume includes Deck. Baldur's Gate 3 and Satisfactory probably make up the huge majority of KB+M playtime, as I have never strayed far from my console pleb roots and prefer a controller where possible.
Only 6 games played (4 fewer than last year).
Primarily played in March - August.
Longest streak of 18 days.
Data Missing: My wife and I got a Switch 2 at the end of August.
Mine is pretty standardish for me but still far over the top of Steam average.
The great thing is that the bar graph representing each month of the year shows how I approach playing games - I tend to play one big game at a time and it takes me sometimes a few months and the bar graph shows when I played which game.
I play only on Linux, mainly on Steam Deck. I have more games played on desktop though, as it works as a sidekick for me - to take a rest from the main game I play at the moment.
Most played games are Horizon Forbidden West (great game!), Kingdom Come: Deliverance (also great!), Midnight Paradise (AVN, I got surprised by this one, it is good), Original War (very unique RTS game), Postal 2 (sometimes you can let off some steam in a game; sometimes it's hilarious) and a few of others.
Next year will be a bit of surprise for me as I don't know yet what I would play. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will likely be there, I want to play some GTA San Andreas (through PS2 emulation on Steam Deck), I'd love to replay Breath of the Wild (through Yuzu emulator on Steam Deck) and maybe give in to American Truck Simulator roleplaying as iconic Rubber Duck (who knows?) as I bought the Ultimate pack. I will likely play some coop games with daughter, I hope Portal 2 and We Were Here and likely some singleplayer logical games like Portal or Talos Principle so I can give her advice if she gets stuck in them. I will likely play a bit of ARMA3 and maybe some other multiplayer games with friends.
So mine is a fun one since I set up the second hand steam deck in the TV room last year.
My kid has started to play more on her own and so has my wife. And we're also getting a lot of guests and my wife's clients who have kids and it's something for them to do while the adults are busy. Anyone's free to dig into the ever expanding backlog and download/delete whatever they like, so long as they put everything away and don't mess with save files. And it's been a success.
I should probably set up all the family accounts sooner or later to keep stats like this clean and I can see people playing concurrently becoming an issue. But such a wide spread like this feels like I run an arcade.
So the damage is:
174 games and its 50/50 between old and new
You can sort of see the months when I'm between projects because I'm committing to single games. Otherwise its a whole mess of things.
Those marathon games were E33, Blue Prince and I was lucky with Silksong because it released just before the 6 weeks I was out with a broken foot.
When I was in "work mode", most of that time was spent with Hades and other Roguelikes. Also tower defence.
My favorite stats are these, where no game got more than 10% playtime.
Also, I'm pretty happy that there doesn't seem to be any AAA in my list and no mtx. You could count Space Marine 2 and a few hours to mop up the last of BG3 but it's not the same.
Anyway, I'm probably not going to have any time till March again and I'm pretty sure next year I'll have far fewer hours to spend on games. But I do think this was a pretty good year for game releases (the state of the industry is a whole different story).
Been looking forward to the Replay 2025 stats, no screenshots since I’m on phone and it’s a big pita to screenshot and upload stuff.
My most played games were:
Outer Wilds at 21% playtime and 104 sessions.
Megaman Network Collection Vol.1 with 14% playtime and 74 sessions.
MMBNLC Vol.2 at 10% Playtime and 57 Sessions, keeping in mind I skipped BN4 for obvious reasons.
225 Achievements, Played 99 games, 24 of which were demso, also don’t ask me how many of those I finished.
I played 77% recent games and 15% classic, leading to a miniscule 8% new releases.
47% Deck playtime, 6% Windows Playtime, 47% Linux playtime, I thought Deck would be higher.
It says 31% of my playtime was on controller but up top it says 22% KB/M and 78% with controller.
I assume the discrepancy is from the SteamDeck.
I had some time that wasn’t registered since I was away from home/net @ working in a remote-ish location and being on vacation, but extrapolating from BNLC2 time, which has 31.4 hours in it, I’d probably have played 314 hours this year on Steam not accounting for lost hours. Marfusha and Snezhinka have way less playtime than I did actually play(Registered in minutes, I played hours). Probably alongside Exit 8 and Platform 8 though these are very short.
Here's mine
Nothing particularly crazy except that once again, I have no clue how Warframe became my most-played game. I'm not even playing regularly, but I guess I still just dive into it really seriously for a while and then drop it.
What did intrigue me was my most-played genres: Looter Shooter, Farming Sim, Medieval, and Turn-Based Combat. I wonder what the game would look like that was a combination of all 4 of those...
The one statistic I'm most proud of is my demo plays! I tried 92 demos this year compared to 61 last year.
Actually, looking at the statistics is a little confusing - at the top for 2025 and 2024 respectively it says 92, 61 and, if I scroll down to the demo section of my replay, it says 88, 57 instead. Is the data pulled at different dates for these separate sections?
At any rate, I tried a lot of new games. Not all of them were great but many were fun. I really enjoy leaving feedback for developers after I try something and do my best to write detailed notes or suggestions. It makes me feel like I'm contributing to something and I always try to be encouraging even if I didn't necessarily enjoy the game.
It's also been really helpful in combating my ADHD - the urge to spend money or play a different game? Just find a new demo to try! They're free and their short nature means I'm not buying anything that I won't finish playing. If I don't like it, nothing but a bit of time was "wasted". And if I did enjoy it? I get something new to add to my wishlist (which has really turned more into a...collection of games I may or may not ultimately buy should they ever go on sale). I would like to start sharing the demos I'm trying with others so that might be on my list to do in 2026. I think everyone should try more things!
