Won’t even launch for me on steam deck, tried all the proton types, verifying files, restarting the deck, dx11 or vulkan, etc etc.
Nothing.
Incredibly big waste of money and disappointment
Edit : hilarious to be fanboy down voted for stating my experience, get over it
- It’ll likely get fixed unless you did something funky to your steam deck that makes it a weird edge case
- Steam offers refunds
Yeah, they must have done something because it fired right up for me. I’ve died 30 some times already in my first day (I like to touch things and I’m horrible at making save throws 🙃)
How does it run on Steam Deck? I was probably going to wait for PS5, but don’t know how the controls will be.
“It works for me so its obviously something you did” is never helpful and often just rude.
What could I possibly have done to it, I only use it to play steam games, I bought this game, tried to launch it, and nothing.
Just because you don’t experience an issue doesn’t mean it’s infallible and somebody else isn’t.
What I’m saying is that unlike other PCs the steam deck has very few varying factors (out of the box). Meaning, if it works for others, it is likely it could work for you.
I’m not saying anything or anyone is infallible. In fact, I just had a look at proton DB and there are certainly plenty other people with similar problems.
These are good news because Larian has a reputation for supporting and improving their games long after release. These kinks will get ironed out.
And again, if you don’t wish to be an early adopter (which is completely fine), refund it.
Have you tried using the --skip-launcher launch parameter? Seems to work with a lot of people with Proton Experimental.
