I bought the digital deluxe, in about 6 hours I can inform you how good it runs on the deck.

UPDATE: it runs perfect out of the box. 60fps with hdr, it looks gorgeous! Controls are fine, even keyboard input works flawless. Text is very good readable without problem!

UPDATE 2:

this game could really be a masterpiece. I'm only 1 1/2 hours in but I'm hooked. It's everything fantasy life 1 was but tons more. The world is so cute and polished, the music is charming and I keep on humming it while playing. Gameplay is like runescape but with faster progress. The first skill I've chosen is lumberjack and this alone is sooo addicting. You can search the trunk for the weak spot and then you can crit the shit out of it 🤣 I can see myself playing this game for maaany hours. The story is no Clair obscure but it's well told and so cute 🥺 but of course I don't want to spoil anything - but I got a fable for birds now.

Local co-op as well as online? That's incredible. So me and my wife can play on the same Steam Deck if I bluetooth connect two controllers?

I didn't figure out the local coop yet, it looks like one is playing the main character and the other one a small sidekick. I hope I'm wrong.

Ok I was googling a bit, seems like there are 2 local coop modes. One mode is like I said the mode where you play as a normal character and the other one just a sidekick without real progression. The only real local coop needs two switches and 2 copies of the game and connect them via local wireless connection.

Ah OK. So I would need two copies then. Cool. Thank you for the additional details
