Overwatch 2
The game runs well on my hardware. I have not played this game on windows so I cannot make the comparison. Requires some minor tweaking
Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-25, Set launch options
LD_PRELOAD="" LFX=1 gamemoderun %command% PROTON_USE_XALIA=0 %command%
Instability:Occasionally
This was solved by disabling steam overlay. Doing this though will cause your game to stutter after 30m or so, requiring the usage of LD_PRELOAD="" in my launch options.
Disabling steam overlay and using LD_PRELOAD="" is vital for an enjoyable experience, free from crashes or stuttering. Gamemode is a daemon and library combo for Linux that allows games to request a set of optimisations be temporarily applied to the host OS and/or a game process. This can be installed through pacman on arch based systems.
The game runs great after these steps have been fulfilled.
