Watch Dogs 2 not installing
Heroic started the download, Remained at 0% for about a couple of seconds and then just stopped and my Deck said the install finished (It didn't install, no one has that crazy of storage speed). Does anyone have a fix? Please let me know. Cheers.

What's your Heroic version? This game isn't installable via Epic, it has to be installed with Ubisoft Connect. Recent Heroic versions should walk you through this

I’m pretty sure it’s the latest version.
I’ll double check later though
Yes it is the latest version

Hm, not quite sure why that's happening then
You can try doing what that's supposed to do yourself:
1. Open up a terminal and run
2. Download the latest Ubisoft Connect installer from here
3. Add a new sideloaded game to Heroic, set its title to the game's name (or whatever you'd like, really). Click "Run setup first"
4. Select the installer you downloaded, follow its instructions until you're logged in (the game should now appear in your library)
5. Close Ubisoft Connect (it'll be in the system tray). For the sideloaded game's executable, select
drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Ubisoft/Ubisoft Game Launcher/UbisoftConnect.exe
6. Launch your newly added game, UC should open back up. Download the game through itstormy-gold•2y ago
Watchdogs 2 is a special case that heroic doesn't handle yet so the process has to be done manually, I've been planning to catch that error and be more user friendly since forever but it's there in the infinite list of TODOs

Ubisoft Connect requires some Wine patches IIRC, and those aren't available for macOS
