@ZedClampet "there are third party websites that can calculate this for you."
Yes indeed, and I guess that's where Augmented Steam gets its info—I haven't drilled down to discover/confirm which one(s) it is. Here's a snippet from the Options:

Nice post @Pifanjr ! It's fun to look back at all the games we've played, and how long we played them over the course of the year and to see how much time we spent on different games. You guys play a lot more games per year than I do, as I tend to play certain games for days or weeks without switching to a different game, but it's also fun to see how our game playing differs or compares to each other.
The total number of games I've played this year, which you see contains many older games or remakes/remasters. I also don't know if the hours I've put into The Witcher 3 Next-Gen (just over 60 at this point) are calculated in the totals, as I just started playing on 12/14.
An interesting detail from the Steam Replay is the Spider Graph, though I don't feel it's detailed enough to give an accurate representation of what we played. Maybe it's based on the Steam Tag designations (?), but I feel like I should have a post-apocalyptic category to better define my playtime. Also, the "Co-op Campaign" in the below graphic is deceptive because I've never played co-op; maybe it's just because some of the games I've played had that option (?).
Another interesting detail was the "How You Compare" graphic, which clearly shows that I play (or replay) more older games than new releases. But I was pretty shocked that the average number of games played by Steam players was only 5 games per year.

honestly i was expecting something more refind as to what i was playing in 2022. The amount of time i spent playing games feels like i could have been doing more with my life sometimes. Looking through that list i played this year has been seriously disappointing nothing truly outstanding.

There is actually some GOG data. Start up Galaxy, click the "Recent" tab-like thing in the upper left, and you'll see it. It seems lacking on accuracy, though. In fact, my total game time could be 12488hrs or 12503hrs, depending on which part of the window I look at.
That's a really weird form of a graph. The tags aren't connected in any way, so why are there lines between them? What does the area it shows even represent?? Seems like a bar graph would work better. <shrug>
A few of my Steam friends shared their full reviews. The top item of the hex always seems to be a strange one. (Mine was "mechs.") The rest look like more typical tags.An interesting detail from the Steam Replay is the Spider Graph, though I don't feel it's detailed enough to give an accurate representation of what we played.

Many people play just Counter-Strike or just DOTA 2. I wonder if it's counting people that didn't play anything at all as 0's?
I was wondering about that as well. Either people who didn't play are counted as well or there's a far greater number of people that only played 1 game in the entire year than I would have guessed.

But did you have fun? Isn't that what matters most?

Probably played 10 of those 32 games for less than an hour, surprised I got that many achievements tbh! I dont go looking for them particularly and something like half of my hours went into games I've been replaying so already had the easy ones.
I always like looking at charts, glad they brought in this in as a feature

Paradox-made games typically only give you achievements if you play in something like iron man mode, too.

True, I did get a few from Crusader Kings 3 this year because of that.
Honestly i don't know if i actually had fun with most for the games. Mostly indifference to most of the games. One or 2 of them i liked, but was i actually having fun? not so sure. the only games that i could say i was having fun was huntdown, legend of zelda a link 2 worlds, yakuza 2 and maybe dishonored all the others? nothing stands out as truly memorable to me tbh.
No surprise that Destiny 2 is my most played game at 60% (which is smaller than previous years). My streak wouldve been twice as long, but i had covid in the beginning of august, so there was a good week there where i didnt do anything. Obviously missing games from Gamepass, GOG (Witcher 3, plethora of old games, mainly MK Trilogy), Battlenet (Diablo 2 resurrected/Call of Duty Cold War) and Epic (bunch of the freebies). I dont go for achievements at all in any game so im suprised at that number and I also am amazing at adding friends!

I believe that's the longest streak on here by far!
I had a crazy streak this year now that I'm looking at it..
So even if DXCHASE's streak had been double you'd have beat them, impressive.

Don't forget, the streaks are for while you're online with Steam games. I played Picross Touch over Nov-Dec as a goto quickie game, but otherwise all my gaming has not been Steam since ~October.
It is, im hoping on having a longer streak but close to a year i dont know.
Hope to have that kind of time when im retired for that!
My steam replay in regards to time and streaks are somewhat close to all the other launchers pooled together. But when i was sick i know i didnt do anything with a game for 2 weeks lol
