Going from a horrible framerate and dealing with constant stutters and the mess that was docked mode to a smooth experience was a good sign indeed, but it wasn’t to last.Īfter further testing, the game doesn’t seem capable of maintaining a smooth 30 when things get hectic.Īs mentioned above, the opening section can now be played at a smooth 30, but after the first boss is dropped, things revert back to how they were prior to the patch.

You also needed to switch to experimental Proton to get intro videos working, which lead to multiple crashes when accessing things in-game.įollowing the hotfix, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty now runs at a solid 30 frames per second at the start of the game.īecause of this, I’ve decided to restart the game from the beginning as well to get a better idea of how further improved things are. Things were looking promising.

Prior to this update, the game was running at around 25 to 29 frames, with fluctuations into the 30s and 40s, albeit briefly. While that may be annoying for me, that’s great news for potential owners.

Just as I was about to hit publish and bemoan the performance of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty on Steam Deck, Valve released a Proton hotfix that greatly improves compatibility in the first area.
