Works flawlessly. Locked at 60hz on my 144hz monitor but I believe that's just how the game is so that's okay.

Launch option: gamemoderun %command% With feral's gamemode installed.
Runs perfectly out of the box without tweaks. No lags, no stutters, just perfection.
Although not native unlike the website says (only .exe available despite being Unity), runs perfectly fine under proton, simple game really.

Tabbing out and back in the game can cause graphical issues, and might require a few tries to go back to normal. Not a huge deal once you know about it.
Had to manually go into the Steam prefix (steamapps/compatdata/2694490/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile 2/poe2_production_Config.ini) and set renderer_type=DirectX12 as Vulkan left me with a black screen.
Absolutely, given that gaming optimizations have been applied to the host linux system first, to avoid stutters and maximize stability.
I have done a few tweaks to make my host system perform as well as it can while gaming.
First of all I very highly recommend using the linux-tkg-pds-* kernel relative to your CPU's architecture (AUR repo for Arch: https://lonewolf.pedrohlc.com/chaotic-aur/index.html)
As well as:
- If using gnome, using mutter-performance from the aur instead of the regular mutter.
- Or if using KDE, using kwin-lowlatency or similar instead of the regular kwin.

If using an intel CPU, I also can recommend disabling kernel mitigations (spectre, meltdown, etc...) for a home PC.
Assuming your distro uses grub, edit '/etc/default/grub', and add to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line the kernel parameters listed on this site: https://make-linux-fast-again.com/
Like so:GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="the stuff that's already there noibrs noibpb nopti nospectre_v2 nospectre_v1 l1tf=off nospec_store_bypass_disable no_stf_barrier mds=off tsx=on tsx_async_abort=off mitigations=off"
Then save and update your grub config:
- update-grub on ubuntu
- otherwise grub-mkconfig (refer to the wiki of your distribution)
Then of course, restart, use the right proton version, boot on the right kernel (uname -r to check) and you're good to go!
