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?

    I played through it before, and it ran great. I’d suggest trying the normal fixes:

    1. Verify game files

    2. Try a different proton version. I usually try both the highest version of proton 7 and proton experimental.

    3. Reboot.

    If none of those work, put PROTON_LOG=1 %command% in the launch options for the game inside the steam game properties. This will generate a log file in your home folder that you can share to help identify what went wrong.
