We're totally writing this from GDC where all our friends are and we're conducting many important and life changing business deals. Sorry no, can't take pictures. NDAs or something.
Valve shows more games crossing $100k+ each year. True. 20k new releases in 2025. ~800 netted >$100k That's 4% of 2025 releases joining a club of ~6k out of 125k+ games on Steam who ever cleared that bar — across all years, still only ~5% The floor isn't rising. The room is getting more crowded.
I try not to do ranty threads anymore, but man, this Valve GDC graph has just rubbed me up unbelievably badly This was presented as a good thing - "more games are finding success!" -- when actually the data has just been presented in a tricksy way to make it look like everything is fine
