No doubt Fortnite would be somewhere on this list. Minecraft too. Not sure what else would be a guarantee.

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.

Fortnite can’t be played unless you’re running windows

Ah that’s a good point. I main Windows myself on Deck, due to Game Pass, so I forget about that side of things.

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.

Emulation Station might, since a lot of people use it as a frontend for their emulators. Since ES runs in a separate window while you play, all the time spent playing emulated games would all add to ES’s total.

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.
