Just checked the steam charts active player numbers for the first time in a while and it looks like Stellaris is seeing the highest average active players since release. Surprising?
Stellaris currently at the highest average active players since 2016

I suspect the numbers to drop sharply once the novelty fades, as performance prevents many people from playing beyond 2300.
How come some mods have 100-200k sub, even many new mods have 30k+, while there are about only 18k players
I guess its not counting unique players, but rather active players per day.
Probably not everyone plays at the same time, at least partially due to time zones. The peak active player numbers are a little higher but they would have the same problem.
If we actually looked at how many total players own and play Stellaris, the numbers would be way higher than the number of people you see playing at any specific time. I think Paradox has those numbers but I do not believe they are publicly available.
