Cloud saving was always wonky in Grim Dawn, including inducing performance problems; i would advice you to disable it if you don’t need it,

I am doing a revisit, and not sure what happened but after an update the save vanished on the Steamdeck. Uninstall and reinstall did not fix it. Then the game stopped working altogether. Then after a third software update everything is back and running.

I have never had an issue with cloud saves and I have been playing since the beta/kickstarter. Losing my saves would be devastating at this point with all of my characters.

Good for you - for me cloud saving introduced stutters, which were caused by the way they handled updating the cloud saves; always felt like it feels if your HDD i/o is too slow to cope with something and the whole thing starts grinding down, while being installed on a NVME drive. Disabling the cloud saves made those issues disappear.

I’m curious about these stutters and what they look like, maybe it has been something I haven’t noticed. One issue I have when playing co-op this time is that there are occasionally momentary lag/desync issues for the person/people not hosting that seems to happen every once in a while. The other person won’t be able to see me (the host) until either I or they use a portal warp away and come back. They report it just shows me standing in place, but they still see all the enemies being killed. It’s really weird.

Good to know. The screen on the deck is so dang small it gives me eye strain sometimes and I like switching to a large monitor, but not if causes issues.

You might use something like Syncthing to synchronize the prefix data, making cloud saves unneccessary without much effort.

Yeah, recent update completely borked game on both linux and windows. Devs released a patch soon after that added “comparability mode for linux peasants”, but I saw suggestion for windows users to also use it, cause it solves same issue.
