I've played 12 hours. Shutdown deck, came back to play (9.30.24) and it's stuck on the loading screen with the spinning ring. Unplayable
Cracking from wake
Game stopped working after 12 hours. In this mission where you decide who to give Leon's drugs to, Tucker or Copeland, I mounted my bike and tried to drive out of the town where the game froze. From then on it won't boot past the PS Logo screen with the characters in it. It sits on a black loading screen where Deacon's ring just spins.
Game is unplayable now. Won't boot past Spinning ring load screen as of 9.29.24
Game is broken and unplayable
Buyer beware. As of today I cannot play the game. Days Gone as of 9.30.24 is unplayable on my SteamDeck or PC. I've played 12 hours. Shutdown deck, came back to play (9.30.24) and it's stuck on the loading screen with the spinning ring. It also takes a long time to even load the game before getting to the Sony Logo with game footage in it. Once that plays it goes to the spinning ring.
Anyone have any idea? I've browsed google and this sub and no one has resolution. Majority are going unanswered.
Sucks because the game was beautiful I was really enjoying it.
Steps I've tried:
I've uninstalled 2 times now and reinstalled.
Verified files twice.
Renamed Movies folder.
Deleted sfkpaks folder
Deleted all saves but one thinking one was corrupted somehow.
Tried opening in windowed mode.
Tried opening in big screen mode.
Restarted the device and shut down the device multiple times
Tried just emptying the WindowsnNoEditor folder and it just repopulated itself once i tried to launch the game.
Emptied contents of and made Engine.ini read only. Didn't work.
Tried Proton 8.0
Tried Proton Experimental
Tried launching in windowed mode
Tried multiple different resolutions

changed clutch and shift up shift down to A, B, and X respectively
sometimes it looks like the text is cut or split down like a line
changed face buttons to manage clutch better
at times. not unplayable. once tuned from youtube recommended settings it's way better.
very slight issues when in large areas but so rare i don't even remember specifics.
Amazing on Deck OLED. Never was even into car games before. Loved mastering the different car types on tracks.
