Can't install Alan Wake 2. Other games, even large ones, install fine

It just sits on 0 and never downloads anything. It creates an exe in the folder that is 0 bytes but that's it. It never goes beyond that It's a large game, 96GB install, but I was able to get Borderlands 3 to start to install and it's 94 Rebooted and logged out/in multiple times. Was able to turn around and install to Windows without an issue. Linux, Bazzite, btrfs partiton

At my side, on my steamdeck, it seems only broken with freshly buyed Epic games. For example, i have Elite dangerous since years, install worked Fine (right now tested). Ride 5 (yesterday) and alan wake remastered (1day before yesterday) Don‘t Download (get stuck at 0% Download).

Hello folks, we might have a fix for this (some brief tests show it to be working): https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/legendary/pull/23 To use this version of Legendary in Heroic, do the following: 1. Download the archive for your operating system from here and extract it 2. On Linux/macOS: Mark the extracted binary as being executable (KDE's Dolphin has an option for this in the file properties) 3. On Steam Deck / Flatpak: Move the binary to ~/Games/Heroic/ 4. In Heroic, open "Settings" (sidebar) -> "Advanced" and set the path at "Choose an alternative Legendary binary" After that, just try to install the offending game in Heroic again
