Comment on Mewgenics becomes the most-played roguelite ever on Steam
I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 1 day agoGotta wonder where Binding of Isaac falls on the list since it’s been out so long and it’s players tend to be the ones that put hundreds, if not thousands, of hours into it.

The article is talking about concurrent play, which generally peaks near release for all genres, with a few exceptions (like Hollow Knights sleeper numbers). Isaac came out when there was relatively fewer players and it’s a slow growth, so the original probably didn’t have a very high concurrent count.
The remake is around 70k peak, although it’s oddly high at 20k right now, perhaps because if Mewgenics.
