Constant Random Crashing
Hello, I am constantly getting a crash to desktop after a little while of gameplay and wondering why. At first I used to get a DX11 error but now there isnt any warning at all. It will just close to desktop. If anyone can help Id appreciate it.

Here's a thread made about the DX11 crashes. Maybe take a look and see if any of it helps. https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/wmucnu/possible_causes_of_and_solutions_to_the_infamous/

Thanks for the award, I'll continue to please.

Try to repair the game. Not using Steam, but the launcher itself.

Do you have mods installed?

No mods, I see though that Radeon cards seem to have an issue with this game and that is what I have. Ill try fix using the launcher and see if that helps

I'm running this on the steam deck (which is AMD based) and never encountered a crash. Though that could be because of custom drivers from steam side and Proton, as it runs on Linux.

Let us know what the repair through the launcher brings.

My first experience with Steam Deck was yesterday (and probably the last).

If there are say 2-3 devices hooked up to wireless including the PC, some other device, and then where Steam Deck is being used, the chosen game will freeze up in minutes. Since a mouse often cannot be used on portable devices, the game pad becomes the only real option. I wasn't impressed other than ease of setup. Many people are saying similar things on Google reviews, 3.5 rating.

I regularly have multiple devices hooked up: wireless kbm with their own dogle, an SD card, a USB stick, a 1440p monitor and multiple controllers and an external speaker connected via BT. I am using the steamdeck as both a gaming device and normal desktop computer.

People tend to go on the internet to complain, so I wouldn't trust reviews too much.

Question: Are any of you using "windowed gaming optimizations" and/or overlays (geforce experience, etc)?

The game doesn't like it if you force it to FLIP mode and use overlays at the same time, resulting in a dx crash message.

I play the game in windowed mode instead of Fullscreen if that is what you mean, no overlays outside what the game provides. I don't think my video card has any default overlays in the program. I am using a Radeon not Geforce.
I am trying a program that auto logs you into your game instead of going through the default login method. Using that I havent had a crash..."yet"
