September 6, 20187 yr Could be. I mean technically they don't say "Here are the Global Top Sellers, in order" but it is where my mind goes first. They're sorted according to relevance which could technically mean relevant to me. BTW, Deadfire is still on page 16, but has moved up about ten places since my last post. They're watching you right now as I type this ... Edited September 6, 20187 yr by aaronghowell “How do you 'accidentally' kill a nobleman in his own mansion?" "With a knife in the chest.

September 7, 20187 yr I assume that Steam is so deliberately unclear regarding the sales information is that it sees it as information with potential market value in case at some point they would like to sell it. I imagine many companies would only invest in game if they see similar games are selling very well.
September 7, 20187 yr Steam was completely transparent up until quite recently, and I think the main change was that they allowed users to hide their libraries so the visible sales numbers are no longer reliable
September 7, 20187 yr Yes, but i think the change was not to protect users' privacy, but simply to protect their own valuable information. That is why they have also eliminated methods to estimate sales that don't depend on checking users' libraries. Edited September 7, 20187 yr by Aleh1811
