That a lot of MP games are started means that a lot of MP games are started.

That's all. Interpret that as you want.

I have started around 10 SP games, which account for around 400 hours. I have also started 10 MP games, which account for around 2 hours. I'm not 50/50 SP/MP: I'm playing a game with buggy MP.

each reload of a savegame is a "start"
