I and other folks around the Humankind subreddit have been reporting that the game is now unplayable on the Steam Deck since the expansion's release, whereas it ran quite well before.
Now, the game will most frequently crash back to SteamOS about 2/3 through a loading screen when trying to load a game. If one manages to load a game, the game itself is subject to numerous freezes, stutters, and will ultimately crash within a single turn.
This is a huge bummer, and we haven't seen any dev acknowledgment of these issues yet. Is the cause of this issue known? Can we expect the game to be playable after a hopefully upcoming hotfix or something?
UPDATE: Some kind of update went live for me around yesterday. The game runs now, and I can load into my game. However, it still crashes back to SteamOS pretty reliably every 10 turns or so.
What's going on? Devs, do we know anything about this?
To clarify: the rollback to a previous version still lets you use the expansion content?
No, previous version not contains the expansion. It seems very logical to me. :)
So we can play it... but without newest expansion ? it's like buy new car and can't drive it ... only watch.
Yes, i had playing without. Then i had turned beta version off, automatically got update, and the newest expansion appeared, the game plays ok with it.
