Title: How's your verification percentage?

Hi!

I figure Steam has checked not even 10% of their games. Still, my percentage is 27% Playable+ plus 3% Unsupported => 30% checked. I figure they're doing a not so bad job at choosing which games to verify?
How is [your percentage](https://checkmydeck.herokuapp.com/)?

Over one month later,
27% => 32% Playable plus
3% => 4% Unsupported
30% => 36% checked overall

Now, this is growing slowly...

This is way more than I've got. Is it mainly false positives or real ones (VR, anti-cheat, ...)?

I would say "mostly" false positives.

If i see it right in my list there are only about maybe 10-30? Games which are unsupported as of now because VR or anti-cheat.

When you hover over "Unsupported", there's a standard text "Valve is still working on adding support for this game on Steam Deck" for those I called false positives. I didn't find any state like this described in the FAQs, but... well, it's in the works.

I don't own any Valve games. Just indie stuff I got from indie box.

So you've got only six games on Steam? And all of them are verified now? How cool! :D
Pengling 6 May 2022
Here's how mine's looking at the moment;

VERIFIED: 5 games (15.63%)
PLAYABLE: 8 games (25.00%)
UNSUPPORTED: 4 games (12.50%)
UNKNOWN: 15 games (46.88%)

However, two of the titles from Unsupported could feasibly be put in Playable and Verified, respectively - one works almost perfectly under Proton if you apply a specific command (it just has some graphical issues in menus), and the other was recently patched to no longer need a command and now just works.

I had my first false positive moving from Unsupported directly to Verified today, Owlboy.

Verified: 42 (11.8%)
Playable: 40 (11.24%)
Unsupported: 39 (10.96%)
Unknown: 235 (66.01%)

Quite even distribution for all categories for the tested ones..... :neutral:

7 now - Tails of Iron was picked up.
Mine is:
Verified: 19
Playable: 25
Unsupported: 4
Untested: 175

I don't have my deck yet so I can't test whether any of the untested ones are false positives. However, three of them are native Linux games that work on my AMD-based Mint desktop, so I wouldn't be surprised if they actually worked. The fourth unsupported one is Valve's "The Lab" VR-only demo.

Note: While I have occasionally downloaded free-to-play Windows-only games, I have never paid for a Steam game that didn't have native Linux support at the time I paid for it.

I got two false positives promoted to Playable lately, Risk of Rain and CoD: Black Ops (one of AFAIR three games I had on Windows before going Linux only).
slaapliedje 19 May 2022
I have like 371-ish that are verified and 801 under playable. Granted that's out of like 3200 games...

What I want to know is... why is the Fantasy Grounds Classic considered Verified, but Fantasy Grounds Unity is 'playable' but trying to actually get the license keys into FGC is pretty much impossible with just the Steam Deck... Pretty sure that one is marked 100% wrong...

Has anyone seen a way to even get to the CD Keys on the Deck?

Edit: Sure I could do it in Desktop Mode, but I would think 'verified' means it shouldn't require that.

I got 50% checked now in my library (a moving target of course). The library should be about 95% native games.

VERIFIED: 97 games (26.22%)
PLAYABLE: 72 games (19.46%)
UNSUPPORTED: 17 games (4.59%)
UNKNOWN: 184 games (49.73%)

Of the 17 unsupported games, 14 are "Valve is still working on adding support". I've seen some games promoted from this state: Papers Please, Superliminal, Risk of Rain, Owlboy, Outlast and Call Of Duty Black Ops I & II. The other three are HL Alyx (VR), Insurgency (Anti-cheat) and, funnily, Virtual Programming's Bioschock Ininite "port" ("This game's graphics settings cannot be configured to run well on Steam Deck").
