There's a big difference on the number of concurrent players on Steam from what I can tell, unless I'm missing something.
BG3 hit a top of 875,343.
Starfield reached 269,177.
Currently, as of this moment, BG3 has 363,030 players, which is still above the all time opening peak of Starfield.
As I tend to follow streamers, I noticed an initial rush by many of them to play Starfield, but that balloon deflated fast. I've been reading less than positive commentary about the game.
I'm not sure what a successful launch for a game is supposed to look like, but this doesn't feel like it qualifies. I get the impression that Starfield is dead in the water when it comes to GotY.
Thats because Starfield is also on consoles and gamepass. They reported that they had 1 million concurrent players over all platforms.
