如何查看steam游戏销量
Today’s question is centered around geeky curiosity for the sake of curiosity: is there anyway to look at a Steam gaming account and see how much you’ve spent on your games and how much you’ve played them? Let’s take a look at how you can datamine your own Steam account (and the accounts of friends too).
今天的问题是出于好奇而集中在令人讨厌的好奇心上：是否仍然可以查看Steam游戏帐户并查看您花了多少钱以及玩了多少游戏？ 让我们看一下如何才能挖掘自己的Steam帐户(以及朋友的帐户)。
Dear How-To Geek,
亲爱的How-To Geek，
When I’m logged into my Steam account I can look at my recently played games and even all of my games, but the stats data there is fairly limited. All I can see is which games I’ve played frequently in the recent time (maybe a month back? not sure how that part works) and then I can look at all my games sorted by total play time or name.
登录我的Steam帐户后，我可以查看我最近玩过的游戏，甚至所有游戏，但是那里的统计数据非常有限。 我所看到的是最近一段时间(也许一个月前？不知道该部分的工作原理)我经常玩哪些游戏，然后我可以按照总播放时间或名称来查看所有游戏。
The thing is, I’m really curious about things like: how much money have I spent on Steam games, how many of my games I actually play, hours played in aggregate, etc. Really I just want to geek out on the data, but there’s no easy way to do so inside of my actual Steam account.
问题是，我真的很好奇，例如：我在Steam游戏上花了多少钱，我实际玩了多少游戏，累计玩了几个小时等等。真的，我只是想看看数据，但是在我的实际Steam帐户中没有简单的方法可以做到这一点。
How can I get the graphs, charts, and data I crave short of building my own spreadsheet and combing through my old email receipts and such for the necessary data?
我如何获得自己渴望建立自己的电子表格并梳理旧的电子邮件收据等必要数据的图形，图表和数据？
Sincerely,
真诚的
Steam Curious
蒸汽好奇
We love it when reader emails inspire us to fix our own lingering computer problems, learn a new trick, or go digging through our own data to sate our own curiosity about the subject at hand. We’ve often wondered the very same things you’re wondering about our own Steam account, and your inquiry is the perfect excuse to indulge ourselves on the clock, so to speak.
当读者的电子邮件激发我们解决自己顽固的计算机问题，学习新技巧或挖掘我们自己的数据来满足我们对当前主题的好奇心时，我们会喜欢上它。 我们经常想知道您对我们自己的Steam帐户所想知道的事情是否一样，而您的查询是沉迷于时钟的完美借口，可以这么说。
For those readers following along at home but unfamiliar with the topic: Steam is a very popular video game and software distribution platform created by the gaming company Valve (responsible for such hit game franchises as Half-Life, Portal, Left 4 Dead, and Team Fortress). Presently Steam is pretty much the place to sell and promote video games for everyone from huge game companies (like Bethesda and 2K Games) to one-off publishers creating indie game titles. Steam is, in simple analogy, to games as iTunes is to music. As such, it’s an interesting experiment to data farm your Steam data to learn more about your own purchasing and gaming habits.
对于那些在家中但又不熟悉该主题的读者：Steam是由游戏公司Valve创建的非常受欢迎的视频游戏和软件分发平台(负责诸如Half-Life，Portal，Left 4 Dead和Team等热门游戏特许经营权)堡垒)。 目前，Steam几乎是一个向所有人销售和推广视频游戏的地方，从大型游戏公司(例如Bethesda和2K Games)到一次性发行独立游戏的发行商。 简单来说，Steam是游戏，就像iTunes是音乐。 因此，这是一个有趣的实验，用于对Steam数据进行数据存储以进一步了解您自己的购买和游戏习惯。
We did a little digging, and it turns out that not only will you not have to set up your own spreadsheet and manually process your data but that there are many like minded folks out there that love data visualization and pulling data from their Steam accounts. We’re going to highlight several tools here because, unfortunately, little independent projects like this often have a habit of up and vanishing (hopefully more than a few of them stick around for future readers to play with).
我们做了一些挖掘，结果发现，不仅您不必建立自己的电子表格并手动处理数据，而且还有很多志趣相投的人喜欢数据可视化并从他们的Steam帐户中提取数据。 我们将在这里重点介绍几种工具，因为不幸的是，像这样的小独立项目通常都有兴衰成败的习惯(希望有更多这样的项目能留给以后的读者使用)。
Before you get ready to dig into the visualization tools you’ll need to make your Steam account profile page and account inventory page public. You don’t need to leave it public, but you do need to leave it open for as long as you’re polling your inventory with the data tools. All of the tools we tested rely on scanning down your public facing inventory page and compiling information from it.
在准备深入研究可视化工具之前，需要将您的Steam帐户资料页面和帐户清单页面公开。 您不需要将其公开，但是只要您使用数据工具轮询库存，就需要将其保持打开状态。 我们测试的所有工具都依赖于向下浏览面向公众的库存页面并从中编译信息。
In order to change your privacy settings log into your Steam account and navigate to the privacy menu by clicking on your profile icon/avatar, selecting “Edit Profile” and then “My Privacy Settings.” Make sure your “Profile Status” and “Inventory” are set to “Public.” Remember, even if you don’t like having a public profile you’ll only be toggling it to public for a few minutes while you use the analysis tools.
为了更改您的隐私设置，请登录您的Steam帐户并通过单击个人资料图标/头像，选择“编辑个人资料”，然后选择“我的隐私设置”，导航到隐私菜单。 确保将“个人资料状态”和“广告资源”设置为“公开”。 请记住，即使您不喜欢拥有公开个人资料，也只能在使用分析工具时将其公开显示几分钟。
SteamDB计算器 (SteamDB Calculator)
The first tool we used is the calculator over at SteamDB. It’s pretty simple but gets the job done. You’ll get information like the total value of your games based on the average prices as well as the sale prices (which is why you see the discrepancy in the screenshot between $833 and $271; we’ll tell you right now we buy most of our games on sale and definitely didn’t pay the nearly 1k sticker price).
我们使用的第一个工具是SteamDB上的计算器 。 这很简单，但是可以完成工作。 您将获得基于平ASP格和销售价格的信息，例如游戏的总价值(这就是为什么您在屏幕截图中看到833美元到271美元之间的差异的原因；我们现在告诉您，我们购买了大部分我们出售的游戏，但绝对不会支付将近1k的标价)。
You can also see when you created your profile, when you last logged in, how many games you own, the percentage played, and total hours. The SteamDB calculator doesn’t offer any additional customization, however, which is a little frustrating. Steam sells some software that isn’t directly related to gaming, like benchmark tools and even budgeting software. The “game” we’ve played the most over the last year is actually a budget application we use for finance management. That’s sad and SteamDB doesn’t let us take that app out of the list for a more representative picture. Still, if you don’t have any strange outliers like we do the basic picture works well enough.
您还可以查看创建个人资料的时间，上次登录时间，拥有的游戏数量，玩的百分比以及总时数。 SteamDB计算器没有提供任何其他自定义，但这有点令人沮丧。 Steam出售一些与游戏没有直接关系的软件，例如基准测试工具甚至预算软件。 去年，我们玩得最多的“游戏”实际上是我们用于财务管理的预算应用程序。 令人遗憾的是，SteamDB不允许我们从列表中删除该应用程序以获取更具代表性的图片。 不过，如果您没有像我们这样的陌生离群值，那么基本情况就足够好了。
蒸汽计 (SteamOMeter)
SteamOMeter is another simple tool. Plug in your profile ID and it spits out some simple charts. You might notice that the value amount it assigns to our game collection is represented differently. Not only is there not a sale/average price but the average price comes up a around sixty dollars short of the previous estimate. That’s curious but forgivable; given the number of sales Steam has it’s tricky to pin down exactly how much someone paid. We’re willing to except their “If you bought it today, it would cost X” estimate.
SteamOMeter是另一个简单的工具。 插入您的个人资料ID，它会弹出一些简单的图表。 您可能会注意到，它分配给我们的游戏集合的价值量表示方式有所不同。 不仅没有销售/平ASP格，而且平ASP格比先前的估计还低约60美元。 这很好奇，但可以原谅。 考虑到Steam的销售数量，准确地确定某人支付了多少钱是很棘手的。 除了他们的“如果您今天购买它，它的成本为X”估算值，我们愿意接受。
The stats page is useful as it lists your most “valuable” games in terms of how many hours of enjoyment you’ve got out of them compared to what you paid and it also lists your highest ranked but unplayed games. We’ve got a copy of BioShock, for example, that has a 96/100 Metacritic score but remains unplayed. Shame on us.
统计信息页面非常有用，因为它列出了您从游戏中获得的娱乐时间(与您所支付的时间相比)中最有价值的游戏，并且还列出了排名最高但未玩过的游戏。 例如，我们有一份《生化奇兵》的副本，其Metacritic得分为96/100，但仍未播放。 对我们感到羞耻。
仪表供电 (GaugePowered)
We saved the best for last. GaugePowered is, hands down, the best Steam account analyzer available at the moment. It lets you adjust and tweak just about everything. Remember our complaint about how our favorite “game” (based on hours) was a budget application? GaugePowered lets you ignore items in your library that are skewing your data. It also lets you change the prices. So if it estimates you pay $19.99 for a game but you actually got it on sale for $4.99 or even for free in a giveaway, you can adjust the prices to reflect that.
我们把最好的留到了最后。 GaugePowered是目前可用的最好的Steam帐户分析器。 它使您可以调整和调整几乎所有内容 。 还记得我们抱怨我们最喜欢的“游戏”(基于小时数)是预算应用吗？ GaugePowered使您可以忽略库中扭曲数据的项目。 它还可以让您更改价格。 因此，如果它估计您为游戏支付了19.99美元，但实际上以4.99美元甚至免费赠品出售了该游戏，则可以调整价格以体现这一点。
Further, it has an “Insights” category filled with beautiful graphs that (once you’ve taken the time to tweak the data a little by adjusting prices and ignoring non-gaming apps) provides a great overview of your gaming patterns. You can even rank your games with a simple 1-5 star “enjoyment” rank and you’ll get some great graphs based on that too. We’re not going to lie to you; we never use ranking systems for games but GaugePowered actually got us doing it simply so we could look a the cool graphs.
此外，它的“洞察”类别中填充有精美的图形(一旦您花了一些时间通过调整价格并忽略非游戏应用程序来微调数据)，就可以很好地概述您的游戏模式。 您甚至可以使用简单的1-5星“享受”等级来对游戏进行排名，并且您还将基于此获得一些出色的图表。 我们不会对你说谎。 我们从不使用游戏排名系统，但实际上GaugePowered让我们做的很简单，因此我们可以看到很酷的图表。
Here’s an example of what those graphs look like now that we’ve removed the budget app and tweaked some of the prices.
这是一个例子，说明这些图表的样子，因为我们已经删除了预算应用程序并调整了一些价格。
By drilling down through the data we were able to see some expected and unexpected trends. Our highest rated game and the one that provided the most value per hour played was The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. No surprise there, we purchased the Legendary Pack with all the extra content for $20.39 and have sunk 180+ hours into the game. There were some neat insights though, like the fact that the games we liked the least we paid the most for whereas games we got on steep sales (like 80 percent off or more) we rated rather highly. Perhaps paying less than a cup of coffee for a quality game makes you appreciate it even more.
通过向下钻取数据，我们可以看到一些预期和意外的趋势。 我们评分最高的游戏，也是每小时提供最高价值的游戏，是上古卷轴V：天际。 毫无疑问，我们以20.39美元的价格购买了带有所有额外内容的**包，并投入了180多个小时。 不过，这里有一些巧妙的见解，例如，我们最喜欢的游戏是我们支付的最高价，而我们的游戏销量却很高(比如折价80％或更多)，因此我们给予了很高的评价。 也许花不到一杯咖啡就能享受到优质的游戏，这会让您更加欣赏它。
If you’re in it to get a rough idea of the market value of your games (if that’s your interest) all three will work fine. If you’re in it to really crunch the numbers in a meaningful way that gives you an interesting snapshot of how your gaming money, enjoyment, and time are being spent we can’t recommend GaugePowered enough.
如果您对游戏的市场价值有一个大概的了解(如果这是您的兴趣)，那么这三者都可以正常工作。 如果您真的想以有意义的方式处理数字，从而为您提供有关游戏金钱，娱乐和时间花费方式的有趣快照，那么我们建议您不要推荐GaugePowered。
