Performance:Significant Performance Problems
When running the game under Proton, you will most likely experience serious issues if you're running the game at high resolution and/or when you have a CPU with a high core/thread count. You can fix this issue (to a certain extent) with WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=4:0,1,2,3 %command%. This restricts Wine to seeing only 4 logical cores, which improves performance.
Instability:Occasionally
The NATIVE version actually crashed a few times for me, before I decided to switch to using Proton, which was a bit more stable.
- I tried running the native Linux version of the game first. I'm under the impression the developer spent a lot of time on this version, but I unfortunately experienced some crashed, so I switched over to Proton.
- Under Proton I had serious performance issues. Thankfully, a dxvk developer suggested I use
WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=4:0,1,2,3, and that helped a lot with performance on high-threadcount CPUs.
Basically I recommend you try both the native and Proton version of the game yourself. Which one will be best will depend on your system configuration. I'm fairly certain most people will find at least one of the two to be quite playable.
