I'll copy a comment I made when people tried to dunk on other single-player games:
Starfield and Cyberpunk are the only singleplayer games in the top thirty as far as playerbase. Falloff is natural, and they're competing with much older games, all multiplayer, which shows what people consistently play. Counter-Strike, DotA, PUBG, Apex Legends, GTA5.
Comparing Starfield to Cyberpunk, both were very hyped up games...falloff is going to happen. It took less than a month for Cyberpunk to reach 10% of initial playercount, Starfield is still around 33%.
I picked a semi 'our guy' game for comparison, Kingdom Come: Deliverance was the first that sprang to mind. It reached 10% of peak in about a month too. The Witcher 3, a fan favorite, lasted like a week longer before hitting 10%.
Like or hate Starfield - and there's plenty of criticism to levy - but it's at the very least doing as expected...arguably better. Playercount will keep falling, but that's to be expected.
Just looked at Hogwarts Legacy, it was at around 20% after a month, and took around a month and a half to reach 10% of peek. Arguably it had better than average player retention for a singleplayer game.
Statistics are so damn easy to make say whatever you want, whether through intent or ignorance. Considering this is a leftist normie, I'm assuming ignorance.
When it comes to topics you know a lot about, it becomes extremely easy to spot who are the people trend posting to pad their follower count and fill in the week rather than someone with real knowledge on the topic. It's unfortunately the way of people who are slaves to the trending algorithms either on the left or right. They wake up one morning and think they're suddenly an expert on muh vidya games.
I half expected with the utter shitshow going on with Unity right now to see the normies being spergy about that but it looks like the topic was too autistic for them to even dip their toes in.

Statistics are a way to lie factually.
