Steam deck players, how did you get your game to run? My game keeps crashing on the steam deck, no matter what I do. The farthest I’ve gotten was about 5 minutes into the game, then either the game crashes or the console just shuts down. It keeps throwing DirectX error on crash. I’ve reinstalled, verified game files, even factory reset the console.

No issues here, do you per chance have any deck mods installed. I read in another thread that someone was crashing due to some steam deck tools.

No, I got the deck last week, this is one of the first games I have installed. I have a couple other games on it too, an some of them are also crashing. I’ve only been able to play heroes of might and magic, and dirt racing game.

Contact stream support, might be a faulty unit.

Sounds like you might have gotten a dud. I’ve seen reports of people getting 10fps on low settings in a Reddit thread, and it was a hardware issue that got RMAed. Contact support - they’re good and fast at getting back to you. I just went through the issue with an out of warranty deck where the battery wouldn’t charge and they still gave me an RMA.
