Just recently I reported on Valve adding a new feature to Steam user reviews, showing off who played mostly on Steam Deck and now they've made this even easier.

Being able to see who mostly played on Steam Deck is great, as both an additional advert for the Steam Deck and to help potential buyers see if a particular game is worth picking up. My suggestion in the previous article was that "Valve just need to add a filter to show only Steam Deck reviews" and you'll never guess what — they did exactly that.

Now when you scroll down to user reviews on Steam and look inside the Playtime hover-menu, there's a specific option to show those who played mostly on Steam Deck (this is for ELDEN RING):

That way if you're playing primarily on Steam Deck, you can choose to see only those types of reviews if you want to.

As a reminder, the previous update that added the Steam Deck icon to reviews allows you to hover over the icon to see how many hours detected were played on Steam Deck.

That is super-useful - glad that they added it!
I really like the initiative, and as an avid Steam Deck enjoyer I most certainly welcome it!
However, I can't help but think they should add the feature to filter by OS or even down to individual specs if the reviewer allows it. Could be quite useful, to see if negative reviews are for a specific type of GPU, OS etc.
