I just bought Firewatch, always wanted to play it and the sale price was really good. It’s also rated as confirmed on steamdeck, but it won’t launch for me. Does it work for others? Any idea of what I can do, or support I can get for it? Or should I just request a refund and be sad?

    If you’re wanting logs for a game that’s originally for windows and is running through proton, you can add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to your launch options in steam game properties. It will generate a log file in your home folder.

      By chance It Takes Two decided it would not start shortly after this post. I tossed in the log command and it got my log file. lol. 8 can’t make yeada nor tails of it.

      I verified files, rebooted several times, change proton versions and nothing worked.

      On a whim I launched it in desktop mode and it fired up. And it now launches in game mode as well.

      I love the SD but it is so temperamental!
