I just got back into the game, and first time playing on PC, specifically steam deck. Bought the Odysey.

I play on low settings, and I'm getting occasional freezes and speed ups.

Sometimes the game speeds up to I dunno 150% maybe, fixes itself after some time.

And sometimes I get stutter, but just the picture freezes, on the background the game plays normally. Meaning that after the picture unfreezes, I have moved forward as I have predicted. Both happening on foot and in ship.

Anyone have any idea what setting might fix this?

Looks like slow downs are common https://www.protondb.com/app/359320

One fix that worked for me with Jedi:Fallen Order was to install on the internal drive and not the SD card... I'm not sure if that's always the case though

I’m not experiencing slowdowns I would say. I have it installed in internal unfortunately. Thanks for the tips though!

Are you using an fps cap? Try capping at 60 and 30 and see if that helps.

Yeah. Using the cap in the steam UI to 30fps. Will try, thanks for the tip

I’ve solved it by always quitting the have when ending my session. This way it always starts fresh and the issue is not persisting.
