I’ve just installed Epic Game Launcher on the Deck and had an issue where the starting screen was black. I’ve already find the fix in * this discussion.

Here’s the copy of the post

I found something that seems to work. In the 3rd party launcher in Steam used for the Epic game launcher, go to Properties->Shortcut->Target, and change the text to:

“{The path to the epic game launcher}/EpicGamesLauncher.exe” -opengl

      When was the last time you tried heroic? I was getting pretty frequent log outs about a year ago, but it was fixed in an update and has been pretty flawless for me for a few months now

        A month or two ago. I saw notes in changelog that supposedly it should be fixed, but it kept happening. I might revisit in the future

          Try hitting up their discord. They’ve been super responsive and unbelievably patient the couple times I had an issue
