Milford, IL | Things are different, thats for sure, not sure about peak human civilization but the differences today are striking when compared to my youth...
My friends and I had career aspirations of astronaut, engineer, doctor, pro sports player, etc at age 10 or so. Today, if I ask one of my son's friends what they what to do for work when they grow up the answer is often 'Youtuber' or 'professional gamer'. Small sample size, so Im not sure if this is an outlier, or if kids are very integrated into a digital type of existance that was not on the radar in my youth.
Back to the numbers, according to the 'Steam' (popular online gaming platform) survey Jan 2024 - Nvidia has just shy of 75% market share among active Steam players.
And, there were approximately 4.25 million PC gamers that played just the top 10 games on Steam in the last 24 hours. That doesn't count all the other games, or any of the active players on gaming consoles, PC only. top 10 only. Its neat that Steam makes that data available publicly to help understand the size of the market. | |
