But steam numbers are totally irrelevant right? Right?
Basically. There are factors unique to Steam which skew their player demographics in ways that don't mesh with the community as a whole.
Steam may be a fairly useful sample of the PC player base so we can maybe infer things like "around X% of the PC players did a thing". Or it may not, and we can't.
It is not, however, indicative of the actual size of the PC player base. Many, and probably most (or not, who knows) PC players don't use Steam for ESO.
