Red Dead Redemption 2 released on Steam yesterday and it looks like Rockstar Games has made little to no efforts to improve the title since its Epic and Rockstar launch. The game is struggling to maintain 60 FPS on PC and suffers from random crashes, black screens, and much more. The PC port has mixed reviews on Steam right now and it only has 20K players on Steam at the time of this writing, for a Rockstar AAA game that is unusually low.
The open-world wild west experience is Rockstar Games' magnum opus, but its arrival on PC has been nothing short of disastrous. For those who booted up Red Dead Redemption 2 on the master race back in November, the recent qualms from the Steam community about bugs and issues will sound eerily familiar. One of the many recurring complaints from numerous users on Steam is that the game keeps crashing when attempting to start it up, but there may be a bizarre and simple workaround fix for this very annoying and intrusive dilemma. By the way, you can buy Cheap Red Dead Redemption 2 Gold Bars from 5mmo.com, where you can enjoy a 3% discount by using the code “5MMO”.
Like Grand Theft Auto V, RDR2 on Steam runs Rockstar’s own Games Launcher as a vital step of the launch process. The Steam release brings a new Rockstar Games Launcher problem caused by having previously linked your Steam account to a Rockstar Social Club account you no longer have access to. The game will be attached to that Rockstar account, not letting you play if you can’t log into it, and god help you if you trip a security lockdown while trying to remember a years-old password.
Player reviews on Steam also complain about other crashes, Launcher screw-ups, performance issues, bugs, and disconnections from Red Dead Online. The game suffers these problems with the Epic Games Store and Rockstar Games Launcher releases too–they’re not specific to Steam–though it has become more obvious how common they are now the game is on a store with user reviews. Reports from people who choose to write Steam reviews aren’t the complete picture, of course, but it’s a wider view than looking at complaints on Reddit.
