Not to undercut it, but the steam deck shows triple the actual game time for some of my games, as it probably counted the time the device was asleep with a game running, due to some glitch.
So, it usually does. But I went to check again. It had me for 63 hours of Baldur’s Gate 3 which I remembered was very off. I launched the game to check the in-game count : 19 hours.
I exited the game, and lo and behold, Steam now says 16.8 hours.
Yeah if I remember right I needed to launch it once after this was so inflated and then it went back after syncing.
I mean it’s okay as long as a sane number gets out.

This should fix itself once it reconnects to the internet.
My time went from >100h after closing it back to a sane number.

I give it a B+ for effort.

It stayed at that high number for months though, despite periodically launching the game.
Maybe a later fix that corrected it.
