Well not how much you’ve spent, how much it values your collection. But what’s that number based on? I’ve only bought one full price game in my entire life on Steam. And it was one of my biggest regrets so I’m not doing that again. So right there all the sale prices I’m paying aren’t being calculated right? Then there’s the case of free games and humble bundles, back when they were awesome. Hell probably a third to half of the games I have in my Steam account either came from Humble bundles or free giveaways.
I think everything you quoted there would accurately describe influencers being paid to play a game. As to whether you believe me or not, don’t really care. Why you keep digging this hole for no reason whatsoever seems rather odd to me, as does being so unnecessarily hostile for no reason. Have a good one.

I’m not understanding what you’re confused about here. The suggestion here isn’t that they’re using the phrase wrong out of some kind of bumbling incompetence. I’m very clearly suggesting they’re using the phrase wrong in an Insidious effort to denigrate consumers. I’ve not hidden that at all. They are intentionally using it to make criticism of game companies sound irrational. That is the goal. That is the point.
Kind of amazing how there’s so many knee-jerk reactions in here from people who don’t bother to read or understand the situation. Almost like the senator has brought light to a situation that many people were either unaware of or willfully ignorant of. Amazing how it’s people’s reactions that convince you of the veracity of a story more than the story itself.
To save anytime features a pretty nice tag to have. I don’t know if I buy games anymore that you can’t do that.
