Top 20 games played on Steam Deck in the past month, sorted by playtime.

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.

The fact the SteamDeck can play all of these at decent graphics and FPS in their full fat PC version still blows my mind

Top 20 Steam Deck games of September 2023, by hours played

Reviews of starfield on steamdeck: probably not the best experience maybe stick to more powerful devices

Average Steamdeck user: fuckin watch me, peasant.

It's awesome to see No Man's Sky still up there. I gave up on it long ago but that team has been resiliant with the updates and just making it better for free.

Crazy that Binding of Isaac is still in there, it's been years since the last release and it's not really in the public consciousness the same way something like Vampire Survivors is. Fantastic game though, happy to see it continue to succeed

Dave the Diver is such a gem

So proud of Skyrim, GTA-V and Fallout-4 holding strong decades after their release. They could be the most played games of the century

Wait starfield works on SD? I thought it was too slow. Has there been a new patch?

One Day I will finish Cookie Clicker. One day I will be free.

I think these would be better if they worked like ratings charts and showed relative changes since last month.

I really want to enjoy games like Fallout or GTA on the Deck but compared to mouse/keyboard it's just really bad. I cannot understand how so many people like to play games like CoD or Battlefield on consoles.

Starfield ? How ?

Average steam deck

I had no idea vampire survivor was such a hit. Feels like that would be a great handheld game.

Glad that Sea of Stars is so high on the list!

Elden Ring is approaching 2 years in a few months and I can't believe it's still going this strong.

It's weird how the fromsoft games are the only ones in all caps.

I'm contributing to #Stardew and #SlayTheSpire 👍

It's impressive to me that games made by small teams or solo artists are going toe to toe with games made by the entire Western hemisphere. Stardew Valley is being played more than RDR2?

Brotato? Have no idea what's about, but certainly got me curious.

I feel good for CDPR. They fumbled the launch of Cyberpunk, but people are still playing the crap out of it, so I guess they handled it well in the end. It must be horrible to have worked on a game for years, only for it to blow up the way Cyberpunk did.

Edit: Though I suppose the launch was only "fumbled" on last gen hardware.

Glad to see I'm not the only with a spire habit that can't be kicked.

I love FROM games being all caps. Like Madvillain

Slay the spire is too good.

Vampire Survivors is still ging strong.

I myself am still enjoying BG3 and Vampire Survivors on the deck. Not sure what game I will move to after BG3, but that won't be for another month or two at the pace I am going.

Out of those 20, 10 of them are either already on my deck or match my queue of games to play. Any reason to play skyrim special edition over legendary edition? I plan on playing the game without mods. I thought legendary edition would give better battery life. I do not remember is special edition has any worthwhile upgrades.

Baldur's Gate 3 is certainly a surprise. I tried it on my Steam Deck, and not only could I not figure out how to make the graphics look decent on my monitor, but I had a problem where the game would eventually stop accepting mouse input, forcing me to quit and relaunch. I didn't get far until I switched to the macOS version once it came out.

How are people playing that game on a Steam Deck?

Bookmarking this, thanks for posting ! I'll add some gems to my try list :)

So a steam deck... Is this a handheld laptop or a streaming device to your computer?

@mr_MADAFAKA @steamdeck None of the games I played on my #SteamDeck are on that list.
In fact I don't own any.

People really play this many games in a month? Even when I played a lot I mostly focused on very few games.

All of those AAA and I’m here playing Suikoden 2…

I'm playing three of these... Telling that Diablo is not there

Time to play spot the actual RPGs.

I'm going with 4
