Hi. For me it crashes so bad that the whole steam deck has to be rebooted. Let me know if you have faced something like this and if you have a fix for it. I am using the OLED Steam Deck and I am running the game on Proton Experimental.
My Steam Deck did freeze a few times (3 - 4 times) during my 25 hours of gameplay so far. A couple of times I had to reboot the Deck. Not sure if this is a unique issue for the game since it happened to me in another game too. Since it's not very common I haven't been bothered by it but if it starts happening more often I'll try investigating it and make another video. So far so good pardner! P.S: In the Graphics menu you can see the memory usage and if other app are running, my guess is; the game is running out of memory sometimes and crashing the Deck causing the need to do a reboot. There's plenty of VRAM for the game so it's weird. At least it isn't too frequent.
@@UntitledCritic Proton not being fully compatible to it is a huge factor that can take on it's performance, im surprised they never really optimized this game to this day.
@@apenasumgamer8724 Last night the game crashed once again for me after about 2 hours of gameplay. It seems the memory leak issue was never fixed on PC. The only simple fix for now is to quit the game and re-launch it every hour or so to avoid fully crashing the Deck. Unfortunately Rockstar doesn't have good track record of fixing their PC games even when the issue isn't too complicated to fix.
@@UntitledCritic thanks for telling me that i just bought a steam deck and have been looking for info, i did want to play rdr2 but i guess i will have to wait for longer or find a good proton version that runs it smoothly
@@apenasumgamer8724 I wouldn't count on a fix considering the PC version been out for almost 5 years so chances are low for them to fully fix their game now. Honestly it's a great game and beside this issue it mostly runs great on Deck. Also congrats on getting a Steam Deck! Hope you enjoy it :)
Alright pardners, I just published my review of the game on Steam Deck: untitledcritic.com/review/red-dead-redemption-2-review-on-steam-deck/
