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.

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

    I spent hours trying to get Epic to work before saying “fuck it” and pirated the games. You know we’re in the worst timeline when pirating is infinitely easier than installing games you’ve bought.

      Well, EG launcher kinda sucks on any device in my experience. Honestly, the only reason i’ve installed it is to have the free games on the Deck. I’ve used this guide and the fix in the post.
