is cloud still a issue?

I loved playing the previous game on my steam deck but it lacked cloud save like most 2k games.

You have to Save your Profile:

Go to your Documents. My Games, PGA TOUR 2K23, then Common. Then copy and paste all Profiles to a New Yellow Folder on your desktop. Since this game does not save to Steam Cloud, but to 2K23 cloud instead, which only saves a partial of your Profile. So this time you will have to spend your VC to redo your fittings, but in the future if this happens you copy those saved profiles & paste them over your ones in your Documents folder & all your fittings will be there.

PS: you want to recopy those Profiles from time to time and replace them over the ones in the saved yellow folder to keep your Profile backup up to date.

i wouldnt mind that but the steam deck runs linux so its more complicated.

I dont have a deck but does pose a problem for all third party devs who have a launcher, cloud type setup for all those games that go on a deck?

well, this will only help a few folks. what I ended up doing was that I installed the game on my pc and played it first then I installed on the steamdeck, went hunting for why it didnt save my stuff then read about this problem on line. I uninstalled it from my steamdeck and now I just stream it to my steamdeck from my gaming pc and it plays great. This means I cant play it if im not on my home network but I got lots of other games for when that happens. Just a suggestion if you happen to have a gaming pc as well.
