    steam deck afaik only checked if you have ever purchased a steam game to prioritize. as those with new accounts or never purchased a game would be a red flag on whether they actually want the device for themselves

      Wow, i didn’t know that. Considering I had just brought one game before the Deck that was a close call, lol.

        the deck was released during covid, so it was in the best interest to valve to actually sell the device to people looking to actually buy and play games
