Red Dead Redemption 2 reaches all time player peak (73k+) during the Steam Autumn sale

I tried to play, but my Rockstar link to steam is locked behind an email I deleted 10 years ago. The only way to make it work is to log into the old account and change the email, but 2FA requires access to the old email. Which doesn't exist. Even support can't make the change without access to the non-existent email. It's a perfect catch 22 and literally unplayable.

"I have a PLAN, Arthur. Have you completely lost faith in me?"

Trying an uninstall then reinstall. Wish me luck!

what was that lowpoint right before nov 21

Guess some people are just lucky

I'd be one of them but damned if I can get it working on the steam deck. There's a process around with over 70 steps to follow, but so far I haven't had the time or inclination to do so. It's the only real failure the deck has had for me.
