Worked out of the box
When launching the game, the steam client semi crashed: The window disappeared + Ubuntu said that there is a problem (did not investigate it further, though). This did not seem to have any impact. Only thing is that i had to close steam via the taskbar icon and start it again to launch other games. I had that with other games, too, though. In general: I did not have any significant issue.
The game runs just fine. I mostly played before the Unreal Engine 5 was added and it was running smooth.
DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="AMD Radeon" %command%
Before Unreal Engine 5 the game was working out of the box. Now i had to add a start option and that's it. You 'just' need to find out a string that makes the game recognize your graphics card. In my case i naively tried the name that protondb showed for me as a graphic card "AMD Radeon (gfx1101, LLVM 15.0.7, DRM 3.54, 6.5.0-14-generic)" but that was not recognized. So i tried just "AMD Radeon" and it worked. So if it is not starting for you, you may need some experimenting with the string. So far i did not encounter bugs that seem to be depending on the operating system.
Using non-ASCII characters may be annoying but i don't know if i'm just making a beginner's mistake here.
OPENSSL_ia32cap=~0x200000200000000 %command%
Non ASCII characters don't seem to work properly in all cases.
I had to switch from Snap Steam to a Steam that i installed with apt (sudo apt install steam)
No difference to running it on Windows
At the first startup i had artifacts. But that got fixed at the second start.
You need a graphics card that is not too old and it should run well. My CPU's integrated graphic unit produced only low fps but my current GPU works well.
It's a Warhammer third person shooter with a lot of melee combat also going on. It ran perfectly fine.
In one mission Titus' voicelines always stopped after about 2s. I assume that this is bug within the game and unrelated to the OS.
I wasn't actively tinkering. It worked out of the box for me.
