I'm baffled by how poorly Diablo 4 handles "mediocre" connections. I have been using T-Mobile Home Internet for a while and I'm even able to stream GeForce Now reasonably well, but I run into lag spikes on Diablo 4.

I don't think it's a network problem. I think Diablo has a memory leak that causes issues that are especially noticeable on the Steam Deck. I've heard it's getting patched out soon, but not sure where I got that info from. One of my Discord friends I think...

I can pretty well track my performance issues to network performance. If I play in the morning when TMHI is performing better I don't see any issues, while in the evening when the network is congested I run into lag.
