So, it usually does. But I went to check again. It had me for 63 hours of Baldur's Gate 3 which I remembered was very off. I launched the game to check the in-game count : 19 hours. I exited the game, and lo and behold, Steam now says 16.8 hours.

I give it a B+ for effort.

Yeah if I remember right I needed to launch it once after this was so inflated and then it went back after syncing.
I mean it's okay as long as a sane number gets out.

It stayed at that high number for months though, despite periodically launching the game.
