I was thinking of picking up GTA V since its on offer on steam but i see it requires the rockstar launcher to play, now how does that work on the deck? Do you have to install the rockstar launcher separately for it to work or will steam work it all out for me so there is no hassle? Ideally i want no hassle since it might not be me installing it.
Any help would be great.
It does require the rockstar launcher, but it will install it for you, you don’t need to do anything aside from download it. I do recommend starting it in desktop mode the first time so you can get the rockstar launcher logged in and working right, but aside from that it should be trouble free.
I haven’t played GTA5 but RDR2 also uses the R* launcher and I have played that, so here’s how it works:
You download and hit play. Steam will then proceed to install the R* launcher and you’ll need to put in your R* account login info, then you’re off stealing cars.
