I'm at @gutterdaughter's place with a friend who is in town and we are all trying to play Guilty Gear Xrd on a Steam Deck (there are two Steam Decks, in fact)
With three arcade sticks plugged into the deck, we boot Xrd and are met with a "corrupted everything" alert. Other games work (we try +R, a third controller isn't recognized but nothing is screaming) but Xrd always breaks and it never shows more than two controllers.
"Maybe the storage is bad? We could try my Steam Deck."
Swapped decks, the exact same problem happens. Every save file is corrupted. So maybe it's a bug that's happening to everyone? We're all in discords, surely someone else has said something about their saves getting corrupted.
No luck. It's a problem for only us. It's something with us. A third stick is not getting noticed, and shit is fucked. Memory safety is on my mind because of this week.
"....heeeey, can you unplug my stick and restart Xrd?"
Everything opens as normal. Motherfuck.
Anyways I'm not debugging this more, we're switching to the PS4 and I'm writing a post on the Steam forums. Never trust anyone who says PC should become tournament standard.
