Doesn't launch with GE-Proton, switch to Experimental
Game runs better than windows, and runs just fine. DLSS, RTX and frame gen work as well.
gamemoderun %command%
At least in Hyprland, the game gave me a black screen at first because it wasn't fullscreen, had to put it in fullscreen for it to appear. You can set it to borderless windowed in game to not have this weird bug.
Bethesda online will take you a while to login.
GE-Proton doesn't work, use Experimental. Besides that, the game runs with a few minor stutters, but the fps is generally higher than it was on Windows.
gamemoderun %command%
Game runs worse (than on Windows) with reflections on and some parts of the menu are laggy
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dsound=n,b" gamemoderun %command%
Last time I reviewed this, it had a few performance issues. Updating my drivers from 550.135 to 550.144.03 pretty much fixed that. The menu is still a bit laggy, some parts of the menu stutter no matter what but its not that big of a deal.
Runs fabulously out of the box
I ran the game without anything extra, but I recommend using GE-Proton or Proton Experimental with gamemode on any game you run in Linux. Nothing much to say here, the game runs with no issues regardless of those things.
Works like a charm, no performance issues, no crashes
Absolutely no tinkering needed here. Although I would recommend you add gamemode and use Proton GE in any game you play (in general)
Also it seems like mod.io is borked, but that didn't work since the game updated to UE5 anyways so you can just mod manually.
Flickers with wayland, have to switch to X11
env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY steam -applaunch 117418
For me atleast, the menu flickered a lot when using xwayland, so I just wrote a command to run it with x11. There's no other issues, the game runs as smooth as you can imagine.
Runs well out of the box
You should probably use GE-Proton because although the game is fine the audio will have minor crackling
Don't run it natively if x11 is an issue for you, it will flicker a lot
