Interesting, what issue are you having on steam deck? I didn't have any problems on my deck when I played it a handful of months ago. There was just a stupid issue where Ubisoft made me sign into the launcher every time I wanted to play. There was an offline workaround though that worked fine I found on protondb. After that I was able to lock it to 40 with some settings tweaks. Played great.

I didn't have any issue, I just hesitated to buy it without the "verified" badge. Thanks for the info! That's exciting. I've been wanting to play Black Flag.

Edit: I see my wording above was misleading. I will update.

Ah, that makes sense. I can understand being hesitant to pay money for something when valve says they're not sure about a game. But honestly, the verified system is practically worthless at this point. Checking ProtonDB instead usually gives me more accurate info on a game's compatibility and people will often provide fixes for games that don't work perfectly out of the box.

Regardless, happy sailing my man. 🏴‍☠️
