@abasstreppas I'll check it out now because I had a job in progress, I'll edit this publication to answer you.

EDIT: I found no problems. I noticed that it took a little longer than usual to synchronize with WoTr, but once connected, it was normal for me.

11 months of playing in steam, has ~1200 hours in ATS and ~1150 hours on ETS2, thanks to Covid. Most of the time is added due to background running of the apps and not active trucking.

And that’s why these numbers are mostly inaccurate, especially what happened before DX11 when tabbing out didn’t keep graphics card fans running high. If you want to provide reliable numbers, add up the numbers in your in-game profile statistics.
(Not saying some players didn’t say the truth, there are indeed those that always drive when the game is running)

Ehm i had to make new profiles so that information is also inaccurate, my profile from when i started was corrupted and got lost few years ago, other profiles do not give the accurate times cobined in what i played, in my case steam had a while it didnt register playtime so I should be actually higher in playtime then it shows atm.
It is not possible to know your exact times, cause everyone takes breaks etc and then the gametime / ingame statistics also are unreliable.

Steam registers (and can only register) that a game is launched from their client. Thus, they start to count since the very first second the game executes in the computer (included all the intro and loading screens).

Then there's the played time inside the game, that I'm not sure how it's counted: if only when actively driving (most probable and logical), if when a job is taken and the game running even if we did other things like looking the map, if when the game is in pause too...

And of course, as those in-game times are tied to every profile, to have a good picture of the time we played could be tricky; specially for those who had lost old profiles or had manipulated them somehow (duplication, restoring back in time...)

But despite all of this, we can have a general idea of the magnitude of the addiction everyone of us have with the game. :P

I own both games for almost 3 years & I think my statistics are still pretty much low compared to others. :lol:

I believe game time is not only driving
Eg test of 3D assets / use of the editor / bug hunting is included in game time

Is bobtailing game time?
