PC Why does my gamestage appear higher for my friend?

[Arez]

When I invite my friend to play on my games, he always tells me my gamestage is almost 10 points higher than what it tells me.

And from memory, I believe his gamestage shows differently for me than it does for him.

Why is that?

Yeah, want to know that either. In a 3 or 4 player game the gamestage is all over the place. Like 3 people see my gamestage all different.

there's an explanation (possibly outdated) on the wiki

That is not abnormal.  How these things are calculated is a bit nuanced, and it makes perfect sense that one gamestage might be different than someone else's.

But, if it shows up differently for each other on the UI - it might not be gamebreaking but its worth checking out.
