When opening chat screen becomes black
Game runs perfect, same performance as Windows. When running it out of the box and opening chat the screen becomes black until you close chat again. To solve it, switch to Proton 8.0-5.
It works very well.
Works out of the box.

Getting 60fps, playable. While i can get 100+ fps on windows. Chatbox is buggy on other Proton Version. Proton 8 doesnt seem to have this problem.
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.x86_64.json %command%
With "VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.x86_64.json %command%" and GE-Proton 9-25 worked on Nvidia, besides this, just work with my integrated graphics or Intel GPU.
Ran at 60 fps well consistently I'm used to running the game at 100, but its still very playable.
Chat Box Broken
Slight fps loss compared to windows.
From what I've seen protonGE seems to be the best way to run it.
Crunchy Text
- Just opening the game itself causes text to look crunchy, this is already clearly visible in the title screen and the main menu
Models having Wireframes
- Various models such as spirits have clearly visible wireframes
Input Fields causing Black Screen
- Opening up any input field (such as the chat text box when hitting enter, the
Enter a Sky Code ...prompt under Menu->Sky Codes, etc.) causes the game to black screen for the duration of the input field being visible. Closing the input field with escape or typing out a message and sending it off with enter makes the black screen go away.
All the issues I've experienced have been reported to the game developers, hoping that they can and will take a look at it. The game does not officially support Linux and bugs have to be reported as platform Windows and Windows Version 0 and then mentioning running on Linux in the Device or Bug Description.
The game is playable and runs well, but requires a bunch of tinkering to get rid of all issues.
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.x86_64.json %command%
The text is very glitched, as each letter is displayed inside of a translucent box with a diagonal line. I could also see the polygons on the spirits and their, clothes and capes, as well as my character's cape when I receive light from any source. This is thankfully fixable by running the VK_ICD_FILENAMES launch option above.
Once I ran the the VK_ICD_FILENAMES launch option from above, the game displayed only a black screen after the initial logo screen, but the issue disappeared once the game was ran in windowed mode.
The game will start lagging terribly after about two hours of playing, going from 100+ fps to 15. Luckily this can be fixed by restarting the game.
Playable, but the polygon grids bug breaks immersion quite a lot, especially for a game that relies so heavily on atmosphere.
All of the text letters are inside of rectangles, making the text look messed up and glitchy. You can also see the white polygon grids on the spirits, their clothes and also on your own cape when you receive light from any source (essentially when your cape lights up)
The game displays a full screen any time you try typing something in chat or anywhere else you can type things. That got fixed when switching to an older version of Proton, like 8.0-5
Text chat is hard to use because of the slow Deck on-screen keyboard. You can't see what you are writing.
gamemoderun %command%
Chat window show black screen.
Черный экран когда нажимаешь открыть чат.
Игра работает прекрасно на любой версии Proton, в том числе эксперементальный. Но есть один баг, на новых версиях когда открываешь чат, весь экран становиться черным, при выходе из чата, нормальным, но писать в слепую не очень удобно. Решением оказался откат на более старую версию proton 8.0-5, на этой версии чат работает и черного экрана нет. Запуск проводился с драйвером nvidia-open, что там на проприетарном драйвере не знаю.
It seems to work out of the box
Black screen after publisher logo
The game was black after the publisher logo when using Wayland. The game was running in the background, but the game was not visible. Considering that the Alienware Steam Machine (A100) uses an older GTX 860m, I don't expect many others to experience this issue. Switching to X11 resolved the issue for me and the game performs perfectly.
This game is notably playable but not optimized for Linux. Some artifacts and bugs can be found in the game.
Some characters and or fonts in the game are artifacting. In this case, some characters somehow showed their wireframe.
The performance may slightly or significantly dropped at certain maps that consist of a lot of particles.
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.x86_64.json gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -r 60 -f -- %command%
Required pointing to the correct Vulkan driver to avoid crashing outright. Game then loaded to a blank screen with just the mouse. Installing and setting up gamescope fixed the blank screen issue, and the game now runs without issue.
Just work, with a little problem when you have NVidia and a integrated GPU. The game ways select the iGPU when you have it.
__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only %command%
Wideout proton command, the textures are a little blurry.
Problem to select NVidia GPU instead of integrated one, fixed with inicialization command. Using AMD or Intel GPU is click and play.
Doesn't display anything past the intro logo
gamemoderun %command%
You can still interact with the game, just nothing's displaying. Cursor works though. I had SOME success with gamescope but it was a pain to setup and didnt render at native and broke the cursor.
Screen goes black on opening the box for typing into chat. Chat otherwise appears functional.
By nature a live service game will have bugs, but compatibility-wise aside from the aforementioned bug with chat it seems to run as well as it does on windows.
gamescope %command%
If the game is a black screen after the game logos, and you are running on Wayland like I am, using gamescope seems to fix it.
On a KDE Plasma Wayland session: While fullscreen, typing in chat causes a small blank white window to appear at the top left corner. While windowed, the chat input causes the window to go blank.
If you use latest proton any text fields will make your screen go blank when focused
Requires AVX2 supported gpu
The game requires AVX2 support. Older gpus only support AVX1. I am unaware of a workaround. No special launch commands or proton version will change this. Please post a fix if someone discorvers a way to make older cards compatable.
Wont even open a window. Time to crash is dependant on version of proton & cmds. I have tried every combo of cmds & proton versions.

Black screen after publisher logo
gamemoderun %command%
Unplayable. Definitely there is something happening on background, but... I've tried Proton 9.0-2 as suggested but game does not even run. All other versions give black screen.
gamemode
only use proton 9.2
Loss of ability to take screenshots when using ProtonGE
There is currently a bug when using the Steam-Recommended Proton Experimental, where whenever the text enty window for chat gets opened, the full screen turns black until it is closed again. Switching to ProtonGE fixed this, however at the loss of the ability to take screenshots. The vast majority of bugs are just the game's natural flakiness and not anything proton-related.
After the logo, the screen goes black
After the first logo, only the cursor is displayed on a black screen and I cannot proceed. Keys and other things are working in the background, but the screen remains black. I have tried setting it using launch options and steamtinkerlaunch, but the game remains on the black screen.
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.json %command%
Game crashes when taking screenshots (both using f12 and through the camera item) if PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU is set to 1. Steam Tinker Launch has it enabled by default, so make sure to disable "Proton hide Nvidia GPU" under "Proton options" in "Game menu" if you use it.
Heavy artifacting on Nvidia GPUs fixed with setting VK_ICD_FILENAMES. Also tested with prime render offload using prime-run back during beta and it worked flawlessly.
Moving around some shadow sudden edge lines are visible. Only with certain materials, and mostly not even noticeable if not specifically looked at. Not visible in outdoors area
