It's fine if you just want to play with the base game - but if you want to also use the DLC, I don't recommend it

3 months ago

Tinker Steps:Other

I've tried Proton Experimental, various GE version, nothing gets the DLC to work

Significant Bugs:Yes

Seiges give you a black screen and hard locks your game, needing to force shut it down. Tournaments give you empty brackets, hard locking your game, forcing you to shut it down. The Embers NPCs are just giant white boxes

Works perfectly, except a one-time crash that the game will detect and fix on second launch.

Tinker Steps:Switch to experimental

Instability:Not Listed

Will crash on first-time launching a new game; after that, it will detect that it crashed last time and adjust.

Mods work as well, even with non-unicode characters.
