It does update achievements. It's really just play time that seems to have issues

I can't help but question the accuracy of this list, since the Steam Deck doesn't seem to log hours for games played in offline mode correctly. I easily have hundreds of hours unaccounted for. It will also add played time for hours spent in standby with a game running, but then wipe all of the hours played and in standby once I connect to the internet.
Perhaps we will discover it's the neurotypicals that are actually divergent.
Just to jump onto this comment: Factorio just released a major expansion this week.
In a similar vibe, Satisfactory just left early access a few weeks ago.
I think that perceived smoothness from 40 fps comes from the LCD screen they chose, and using a controller. Docking the deck to a monitor and using a mouse makes it much more noticeable; but running games at 720p makes it much easier to hit 60 fps.
I always try to keep my reviews constructive for small devs. So far, they've always appreciated the detailed feedback. I've had a few where I completely changed my reviews after they fixed my complaints and let me know about the update.
The Internet is the worst place to seek life advice or personal validation.
I do not say this to be dismissive or pedantic: seek professional help. Talk to a therapist ASAP and start the path to making life better for yourself.
Don't forget the people that just recently started producing butt caffeine. Makes you go FAST.
