FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH gets stability fixes and a Steam Deck graphics setting tweak

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH has its first post-release patch to improve how it runs across all systems, with some useful improvements.

Version 1.001 includes:

• Improved overall game stability, including several bug fixes.
• Fixed the graphics preset to be set to 'Low' when launching for the first time on Steam Deck, even when save data is linked from the cloud. (The next time the game is launched on Steam Deck, the saved settings will be applied.)
• When playing on a PC that supports NVIDIA DLSS, the default setting for 'Anti-Aliasing Method' is now set to 'DLSS'.
• The DirectStorage DLL (Dynamic Link Library) has been updated to the latest version.

For some reason certain developers keep syncing up graphics settings to the Steam Cloud. Something that really shouldn't be done, as it can cause all sorts of problems when playing across different systems. In this case, moving between a PC and Steam Deck caused the Steam Deck to try and run the much higher settings. Hopefully this will no longer happen now, and hopefully in future developers will just stop doing that entirely.

If you missed it: Valve recently updated Proton Hotfix to make it run smoother on Linux / Steam Deck.
