Game looks and runs perfectly well, only a few minor graphical issues.

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

Some stuttering on high graphics. Stuttering can be fixed with a lower mouse sensitivity, and lower graphics settings.

Works fine and it's playable, but some optimization is needed.

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

Game loses framerate when changing levels, requiring a restart sometimes, and a little bit laggy on the outside part of the map (reduce quality on settings to improve framerate). Room for some optimization.

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

Lag, fine after lowering graphics settings

The game starts, but is very laggy. This was fixed by lowering the graphics settings. Apart from that, works perfectly!

Although there was a bit of hassle with getting things working, this is certainly a proper experience of the game.

Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE

Proton-5.21-GE-1 GloriousEggroll

With default Proton versions the game would be stuck on a black screen. After install Proton-5.21-GE-1 I was able to get up and running instantly.

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

Performance was almost slashed in half (~35fps with fully cranked settings compared to ~70fps in Windows), but otherwise very playable, especially after bringing down some settings.

Instability:Occasionally

For some reason, the game has crashed on me a few times when I clicked on another application during the game's startup.
