ProtonDB | User Profile for Professor Badass

Steam version is fine to play except the minor bug this cutscenes which can be fixed by choosing Experimental.

Tinker Steps:Switch to experimental

Significant Bugs:Yes

I had to switch to Proton experimental in order to watch the pre-rendered cutscenes

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

The game (Steam version) is completely ready to run "out of the box".

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

FPS is a bit unstable, but it's still comfortable to play.

LIZARDS MUST DIE

The game has fairly limited controller support, making it a bit of a pain to play on the Steam Deck.

Control Layout:Switch To Community Layout: Lizards (Steam Deck)

Battery Performance:

Limited to 60 FPS since the game doesn't produce more than that

Difficult To Read Text:

The cyrillic letters are barely readable

Input:Controller Detection

Community controls layout is just a temporary workaround and it doesn't work in menus at all (you have to use tap screen instead). Anyway, it is still uncomfortable to play using it too due to inconvenient mapping.

Little Orpheus

Steam version runs pretty well on the highest settings from scratch, but the 60 FPS cap makes it a slam dunk.

Difficult To Read Text:

Subtitles look strange: some letters are randomly highlighted (have a different background than others)

Graphics:Minor Artifacts

On 90 FPS main character looks vague. I fixed it by setting 60 FPS limit in the game settings.

Lizard Survivors: Battle for Hyperborea

Steam version of the game runs on 90 FPS without tinkering, but you can't enjoy it due to the most significant problem - the game itself.

Difficult To Read Text:Yes

On default graphics settings (low) all the text is unreadable. Even on the ultra it's hard to read.

Nocturnal: Enhanced Edition

Steam version of the game runs smoothly, except only the HDR being enabled by default, which made the game uncomfortable to play for me

Tinker Steps:Set launch options

DXVK_HDR=0 %command%

Graphics:Minor Artifacts

Sometimes the image (especially the main character) looks blurry and fuzzy. Not sure if this is a styling issue or can be fixed by adjusting the settings.

The Steam version of the game runs smoothly. The experience is perfect: loadings are fast and performance is stable.

The Gunk

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

There's some slight FPS degradation while using the elevators or eliminating the huge piles of gunk.

The game is greedy both in power and resources. I would recommend to play it being plugged in.

The Last Campfire

Steam version runs seamlessly without any tinkering.

Proton 9.0-4

The Last Case of Benedict Fox Definitive Edition

The Steam version is hardly suitable for comfortable play due to unstable FPS and graphical artifacts.

Control Layout:Switch To Official

Battery Performance:

The game can't produce more than 60 FPS.

Difficult To Read Text:

For me it was bearable, but some may find the text difficult to read.

Graphics:Heavy Artifacts

On lowest settings the game looks horrible.

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

Even on the lowest settings it can't run on stable 45 FPS.

Changing Proton version didn't work for me. Running the game with lower resolution and upscaling didn't work too.
