The game was "The Pale Beyond"
Here was them saying 10% of sales were on Deck.
Later on, after the game had been out awhile and had some sales, the percentage of deck players dropped to a still respectable 5%.
My interpretation of that is that the Deck users were more likely than non-Deck users to pay full price for the game at launch. Considering that deck users only make up 0.6% of players based on Valve's hardware survey, it would seem like Deck owners buy far more games than the average user.
It's also possible that the hardware survey is underreporting decks though, significantly more decks have been sold than 0.6% would represent, and I know I get far more valve hardware survey requests on my desktop vs Deck, even though nearly all my playtime is on Deck.
Thanks! I’ll have to find a way to “pitch” this but that’s interesting.
