Playing on High and Ultra mixed at 85% resolution scale.
Granted I have a middle-age rig, I see the game is running pretty smooth (between 70 and 100 fps) most of the time. And there is no overheat from my components, so no hardware throttle at all when I play.
What is weird is that some areas will framedrop at times, and not at other times at the very same spot.
Otherwise great game !

Your CPU is at the minimum spec, so I would recommend playing at lower settings to remove the frame drop.

Can you post your DXDiag?

It's coming! Check it out! https://youtu.be/zkGm_rdIxsI?t=3287

Everything set to ultra, I have between 45 and 55 FPS in Skylight. Devs, if you would kindly allow us to set more visuals parameters individually like depth of field or bloom, that would be much appreciated :)

We have an updating coming soon with more graphical toggles.

This is a bug we'll be fixing early this week.

Originally posted by Blumage: I bought it two days ago as I like the style and it stated steam verified but was shocked about the crashes on my steam deck. Refunded it after one hour.

Now, after calming down and seeing the focus of the developers to make it run on the steam deck updating with fixes…I just purchased it again believing that they will make the steam deck experience worth. Please don’t make me regret 😅

Thanks for the confidence. Please note this patch will reduce those crashes but they can still happen in rare cases. We have a permanent solve for them coming next week. Thanks for your patience.

Originally posted by A.Crowley: thanks for that fix! yesterday highlands was hard crashing my steamdeck and now it's playable. cheers, devs!


I do have a request - can we skip the warning on the load screen? maybe after the first time playing, because it's a waste of 10 seconds every time we start up the game

It's compiling shaders in the background.

We won't be part of the summer sale since we just launched and can only do a single discount for a period of time :( we hope to be in future sales though but in the meantime, i say check us out for only $25 and if you hate it, refund it! Thanks for the support.

it's coming!

Originally posted by it's a gabe: I was gonna say, this fix doesn't fix much at all. Just had another system-wide crash while navigating the menu in the highlands. It seems that going deeper into menus also kills performance drastically.

Looking forward to that permanent fix. Was really pumped to play this while working from home, as the ability to pause makes this ideal for my job.

another optimization patch to reduce these just went out.

Just updated this thread with another work around you can use while we work a permanent fix. https://steamcommunity.com/app/1171690/discussions/0/4343239957174101230/

Did you restart your game after language selection?

Originally posted by _HXL_shaz: i run it with protonGE 9.7 and it didn't crash once in 20 hours on deck. fps is constant over 30 even in highlands, in the dungeon pretty much 50-60 but i cap the fps anyway for battery savings. the menu can get a little laggy in the 20s but overall i think it's okay. i'm happy if they get it optimised for sure. settings are 800p, no fsr, 100% renderscale, high textures and shadows, everything else low. you should try it out, it's a lot o...

EDIT 6/27/2024

We pushed another hotfix today that will address the crashing on the deck and should eliminate it almost entirely.

PLEASE NOTE: In rare instances you may crash on the quest "Tangled Webs" the first time you see the Gloom Wall. You should not crash again, and we'll release a final fix for this soon.

Hi, your topic added nothing new to the conversation that has over 30 pages of discussion that's why it was locked.

Originally posted by Killsavage: I added game to cart then saw a post that it's unplayable on steam deck even tho claims verified. So thankful.

There was an issue with our last patch that could reduce FPS and potentially crash. We've patched once already to reduce it and have another coming out today or tomorrow that fixes the issue further. Thanks for your patience.

Closing this as there is a 30+ page thread already.

Can you try turning off hardware scheduling? https://www... Read more

please post your DXDiag

Originally posted by PCLetsPlay: I also keep crashing. i just finished the tutorial in the gloom and enter the great hall, crashes every time.

This sounds like a different issue we saw where players can't write to the AppLocal directory to store their save file. Can you try running the game as admin at least once, then seeing if that helps?
