Runs 100% OK out of the box, no tweaking needed. XBox One controller works fine.
Got the "wine: failed to open "c:\windows\system32\steam.exe": c0000135" error with Proton Experimental, GE-25 and Proton 7.06. Proton 8.05 works fine, though.
When using default Proton, the first Arlathan quest freezes the computer (became completely unresponsive, couldn't even ctrl+alt+f2, had to reboot). Changing to Proton Hotfix fixed this issue.
The Arlathan freeze is not related to the hair strand setting issue some people were having (happened no matter whether the setting was on or off). It's probably an issue with older Proton versions.
Needed to change Proton versions to start the game. Otherwise works perfectly fine.
Works perfectly fine out of the box, no tweaking needed.
End of mission takes a few seconds too long to trigger.
GE did some things automatically, haven't chosen anything myself
Sometimes getting artifacts at screen edge, only post current update
Other Proton versions give a black screen and "serialisation error" (game doesn't run).
Works perfectly fine out of the box - all of the bugs and problems I encountered are not related to running the game on Linux.
Use a terminal script to switch screen refresh rate from 100Mhz to 60Mhz and back again after WO3 is closed, since anything over 60MHz causes graphical issues (black boxes). This isn't a Proton problem, it's a "ported badly" problem.
Screen refresh rates over 60Mhz cause black boxes to appear.
All the problems I had (and had to tinker to fix) are due to the poor port of the game (they also appear while playing on Windows).

Sometimes after alt-tabbing the game doesn't take focus properly.
Rare crashes. Not sure what causes them.
Needs some poking, but usually works. Sometimes updates necessitate changing Proton versions (not necessarily to the newest one) to circumvent errors.
