Worth noting that Steam doesn't track playtime for non-Steam games. So this doesn't include Minecraft, Retroarch, or anything purchased through Itch, GOG, or Epic.

Do you think any of such games would be in the list?

I'd imagine only a smaller subset of people even set up their Steam Deck for third party games.

I dunno, I feel like the Steam Deck's core audience is "people who liked the Switch's form factor but also like mods and third-party launchers."

I think that's what we see and may be misattributing of a small active subset that is very technical and invested.

It's on the steam store. I'm sure many people buy and play, and don't ever read or write on a community like this. They're "invisible" here, but impact if not dominate the playtime ranking.

@Kissaki @klay how do I run mods that are originally for pc?

  • under Home -> Power, select "Desktop Mode."
  • Open Steam in desktop mode, and go to your Library.
  • Select a game, and go to Properties -> Local Files.
  • a file browser should open and show the game files just like you'd see on PC.
